White paper · Twitter · Facebook · Telegram · SteemitThe lobbying markets (markets of government relations) of the US and other countries are huge and quite specific. Only large corporations can afford to interact with them in a regulated formal way. Small businesses, social communities and individuals often do not have access to lobbying services because of high costs, opaque lobbying mechanisms, difficult communication with lobby groups, legal risks, etc. To solve this problem, Aeneas arranges the market of government relations and makes lobbying services available to broad social groups.
Aeneas platform is an element of the digital civil society ecosystem, designed to facilitate its sustainable development, arrange lobbying markets, increase the inclusiveness of political and legislative processes, expand minority opportunities to take advantages of their rights, to support small and medium-sized businesses, to hold call for tenders through crowdfunding campaigns and complex audit of projects by building a decentralized infrastructure of hybrid intelligence.
Aeneas platform will allow:
- initiate socially important or proprietary projects;
- audit based on crowd wisdom and machine learning algorithms;
- submit and satisfy requests for political lobbying;
- hold call for tenders among the performers;
- build the infrastructure of the blockchain economy and perform the creation of special economic zones;
- provide tools for local self-governance of civil society.
Aeneas is a public open-source modular blockchain platform whose primary functions are: initiating projects (public or proprietary), placing requests for political lobbying, holding call for tenders through audits of published projects using methods of hybrid intelligence, including crowd-wisdom and machine learning.
Thus, Bitcoin is compared to money, and Ethereum to the law (the concept of smart contracts could be logically interpreted as a system of self-executing norms), the main address instance of Aeneas is the political-economic interface of the digital citizen, and the Aeneas hybrid intelligence services are the tools for analysts and auditors.
Lobbying. Each account holder who passed personal verification as a professional lobbyist or representative of an existing lobbying group can submit lobby service offering and view users applications and requests for lobbying of individual or socially important projects, and take part in calls for tenders.
The lobbying request includes all the features and stages of the life circle of a regular application and further extends by stages of auditing and calls for tenders for finding its performers. Each verified lobbyist can audit posted requests (according to his the professional competence), establish the costs of implementing the request (based on the price of services needed) and take part in the calls for tender.
Ash token. Aeneas blockchain platform uses an internal Ash token to ensure the functioning of domestic economy, votings and supporting projects. Users can make transactions by sending Ash tokens to each other. Important notice of Ash tokens are the conditions of issuing, distribution and use. Aeneas team are NOT issuers of Ash tokens.
The planned network configuration implies blocks generating in 30 seconds - 1 minute period and the approximate number of blocks per day will be 1440.
Ash total supply will be 100,000,000 (one hundred million Ash) and will be issued in first 4 years of the platform existence. The reward for the block will decrease every
525 600 blocks (once a year) and can be expressed by the formula:
N + N/2 + N/4 + N/8 = 100 000 000 Ash. =>
N = 53 333 333,33333333 Ash first year.
N/2 = 26 666 666,66666666 Ash second year.
N/3 = 13 333 333,33333333 Ash third year.
N/4 = 6 666 666,66666668 Ash fourth year.
After reaching 100,000,000 Ash issued supply, reward for blocks generation will be discontinued, and the processing algorithm of the network is replaced by PoS (Proof-of- Stake, "Confirmation by shares").
The Ash Token can be divided to 10,000,000 factions. The smallest fraction is 0.00000001 Ash and called Sand.
Each user can have an unlimited number of accounts. In case of user needs to de- anonymize himself for public activities, personified digital signature use, etc., he can submit a verification request. Technically, verification is a special transaction and adds personal user data (passport id, bankID) to Aeneas Blockchain after being verified by special verification account called Ephor. From the start access to this account belongs to Aeneas Team and will be delegated to community in future by direct master-nodes votings.
Demos is a group of successfully verified users who have been de-anonymized themselves by their own will. They have a public reputation, some privileges etc.
Ecclesia is group of master-nodes with has no less than 1000 Ash on a balance of each node. May be anonymous. Participate in PoS processing of Aeneas Blockchain. They claim 8% of block generating rewards and can take part in a monthly votings for funds distribution. Due to limited total supply, there may not be more than 100,000 accounts of this group.
Ephor is a group of network verification accounts. Initially, the is 1 account of «personal verifier» type and 1 account of «professional verifier» type with initial Aeneas team access. In future, the number of Ephor accounts and persons having access to them can be expanded by votings at the level of Archon or Ecclesia.
Archon is a group of super master-nodes, who has at least 100,000 Ash. May be anonymous. Participate in PoS-processing of Aeneas Blockchain. They claim 8% of block generating rewards and can take part in a monthly votings for funds distribution. Compared to the accounts of Ecclesia group, they have maximum power in case of votings related to the most important issues and the architecture of the project. Due to limited total supply, there may not be more than 1000 accounts of this group.
