Aleph Zero Description
Private blockchain that enhances privacy and has instant finality. Aleph Zero was designed for enterprise, Web 3.0 and DeFi use cases. Aleph Zero is an open-source proof-of-stake public Blockchain. We created a unique, aBFT consensus protocol and a custom substrate stack. We are currently working to enhance the platform with a privacy structure based on Zero-knowledge Proofs and secure Multi-Party Computation (sMPC). This will empower developers with a unique approach for private smart contracts. Aleph Zero's peer reviewed consensus protocol (AlephBFT), achieved 89,600 Tx/s and a 416 ms confirmation in a decentralized test environment of 112 AWS Nodes spread across five continents. Aleph Zero's performance in real life, particularly under heavy network load, remains to be determined. The Aleph Zero Consensus Protocol was officially peer-reviewed. It will be published in the conference proceedings on advances in financial technology 2019.
