How Does Symmetric Blockchain Work?

Legacy blockchains employ asymmetric encryption which is susceptible to quantum computers. Symmetric replaces this vulnerability with Shannon secure symmetric cryptography, protecting information and assets against all future advances in mathematics and computing power. Additionally, the integration of novel three-way homomorphic encryption technology will revolutionize online privacy by allowing computation on encrypted data with an encrypted algorithm.

Patented Technology

Symmetric is based on 5 granted patents in encryption, blockchain, and homomorphic processing. No other viable options to Symmetric exist at this time.

Post-Quantum Cryptography

Users will receive a physical memory device enabling communication with the blockchain via a perfectly secure communication service called Quantum Lock®. The integrity of ledger blocks will likewise be governed by unbreakable encryption.

Foundation for WEB4®

NFT’s, corporate blockchains, and many cryptocurrencies will be able to convert to a Symmetric foundation using the Pecuni as the native gas. This will protect existing innovation from the Quantumpocalpyse.

How is Symmetric Blockchain beneficial?

Symmetric retains traditional blockchain features such as decentralization and smart contracts, while adding many new advantages.

Post-Quantum Security

Block authentication and communication within the system will use post-quantum cryptography that will be impossible to ever decrypt by any advance in computing or mathematics.

Improved Consensus Algorithms

Improved consensus algorithms will help prevent malicious verifier activity such as 51% attacks.

Scalability and Speed

An underlying problem with asymmetric encryption is the dramatic increase in network processing time as key lengths increase. Symmetric solves this problem with ultra-fast speeds, even as the total number of nodes scale up.

Accessibility

Existing NFTs, corporate blockchains, and many cryptocurrencies will be able to convert to a Symmetric foundation allowing their continuation past the Quantumpocaplypse. Conversion software will provide significant flexibility in features, and allow proprietary layers to be added. All converted systems will use the Pecuni as the native token or gas.

Decrease In Fraudulent Activities

Symmetric technology will permanently resolve the problem of IP spoofing, and additionally secure digital certificates and SSL connections with post-quantum encryption.

Enhanced Privacy

Three-way post-quantum homomorphic encryption will be built into the verifier node network and the smart contract language. This will revolutionize online privacy by allowing computation on anonymized data with an anonymized algorithm.

About Proto-Pecuni

The Pecuni will be the native token of the Symmetric blockchain. It will have broad use cases including paying verifier nodes for transaction authentication, data storage, smart contract computation, and homomorphic encryption services. The Proto-Pecuni (PROTOP) is a utility token that will be exchanged for the Pecuni once the Symmetric blockchain is released. Accessibility and liquidity will be created by launching token pairs across multiple chains and exchanges. Tokens will be burned to keep the total tradeable multi-chain supply within the 144M maximum.

Frequently Asked Questions

Proto-Pecuni (PROTOP) will never be expanded. This will allow for significant deflationary pressure during the ICO rounds. Once PROTOP has been converted to Pecuni (on the Symmetric blockchain), and development has been finalized – a minting mechanism seeking zero inflation will be adopted to maximize long term value. It may take 1-2 years before the PROTOP conversion occurs, and likely 5-10 years before the zero inflation mechanism is implemented. Updates on progress towards the PROTOP/Pecuni exchange will be posted on the ICO website.
Following the first ICO round, applications will be submitted to list PROTOP on public exchanges. The price of subsequent rounds will be a slight discount off of the current free market rate. Notice will be given of the timing of these rounds so that token holders can anticipate the temporary change in market dynamics.
Users and verifier nodes of Symmetric will communicate over a Shannon secure communication system called Quantum Lock. Prior to beginning usage, a USB storage device must be physically received from a central hub. Current asymmetric encryption bypasses this necessity. However, this slight initial delay is a minimal inconvenience when compared to losing all of one’s digital assets.
Legacy blockchains link blocks and authenticate ownership via asymmetric encryption which can be hacked by quantum computers. Symmetric replaces these obsolete protocols with post-quantum encryption. Additional enhancements to the way verifier nodes interact, further safeguards transaction integrity over current consensus mechanisms.
Generally speaking, yes. NFTs, corporate blockchains, and many cryptos will be able to convert over to Symmetric as their underlying foundation. Bank and credit card processing systems will likewise be able to switch over. A seamless conversion system will be created to facilitate this transition globally. Verifier nodes supporting these converted systems will use the Pecuni as their native gas – creating an extremely broad use case.
Symmetric has very comprehensive patent protection. It is possible that mathematicians will devise an alternate mechanism to enable post-quantum blockchain in the future. In that scenario, Symmetric (and the Pecuni token) will split global market share.
Yes, a core principle of the project will be full transparency in how the system operates. Private blockchain projects that build on top of the Symmetric layer will have an option to incorporate proprietary systems.
These protocols are likely more resistant to quantum computers than the old NIST standards, but that assumes that a "backdoor" math function is not discovered (which happened to one of the final candidates under consideration). It is important to understand that all of the new standards still use asymmetric encryption, which will eventually be breached by the types of quantum computers that utilize energy minimization. Once this type of system has adequate qubits, the verification algorithm for the standard (like multiplying primes together to get a public key) simply has to be run in reverse to derive the private key from the public key. Using "quantum resistant" encryption exposes enterprises to "save now decrypt later" hacking, as well as immediate hacking if a surprise advance in quantum computing occurs. Symmetric and Quantum Lock use fully post-quantum cryptography - that is permanently unbreakable.
