Review on Hyperion by gregori cordova
a very remarkable project to confront hegemonic consortia that exist today
The growth and expansion that blockchain technology has been having in recent years in so many areas and our daily lives is really remarkable and valuable, so much so that projects have even been created with the purpose of continuing to expand beyond our land borders, such as the case of Hyperion. It is a widely decentralized project that was built to provide more than 10 billion people with fully functional and private global and spatial map services that will change the way these valuable tools are used among users today. . They seek to end the hegemony of giant consortia that provide services of this type, and that abuse the data and locations shared by millions of users around the world, such as the services offered by google maps. The project has its own HPN token and is built with a consensus spatial protocol called Atlas, which is based on the elastic spatial sharding protocol, which has a powerful anti-fault and anti-censorship mechanism and which has the advantage of being a widely scalable and with the possibility of interoperability with other chains. The project offers certain benefits through an application called Titan, which is available for IOS and Android operating systems, and through which users can share their locations and addresses without leaving a trace on the web or other servers, since all search data remains hosted on people's cell phones and cannot be traced. Through map3 technology, the possibility of becoming decentralized nodes is admitted, and it is in charge of allowing the encryption of all maps and expanding the infrastructure of the entire ecosystem, which would be like a kind of paaS for decentralized maps.
In general I must say that the entire ecosystem represents an option for all those people who constantly use global map services and who want to keep their privacy safe and without traces on the web, through a widely decentralized platform like this one.
Pros
- Network security is provided by both map3 and Atlas nodes, improving network performance
- 88 nodes of the network have the possibility of receiving rewards per block, according to the amount of their bet.
- With the application of the map3 protocol, the performance of the entire ecosystem can be improved and helps to keep the network fully scalable
- The project is widely accepted in the crypto market and is ranked number 161 in CMC with a market capitalization of almost 38 million dollars
- It represents a very valuable option to evade hegemonic projects such as google maps
Cons
- It is not a very recognized project in Latin America and they should do more marketing campaigns or airdrops to get noticed
