Digital Asset-as-a-Service (DAaaS)

As the world's first Digital Asset-as-a-Service (DAaaS) platform, Artax delivers tailorable blockchain technology to enthusiasts across the globe. Join us and start creating custom digital assets and block chain solutions on the Artax platform. We are focused on building our community and the global reach of the Artax platform.

Platform Overview

As a third generation blockchain protocol with 3 years of back-end research and development, Artax is built from the ground up to function as a multi-tiered, standalone platform (think of it as a wallet that can be built on with internal terminal / codebase, etc), powered by our open source collateral currency, XAX. Essentially, each XAX represents a stake in the platform. All platform services fees are paid out proportionally to those who have staked XAX within the platform. By staking XAX within the platform, stakers provide security and verification for services performed. This verification process is termed "scratching," rather than staking, since no new coins are generated via this process. Notably, XAX scratching provides services of tangible value, and therefore each XAX has tangible value, and may be worth no less than its proportional share of the services provided. Hence, XAX stands in stark contrast to the status quo offered by most other crypto currencies, which have no tangible but only speculative value.

The platform has features such as NIST and AES messaging, atomic swaps, and combustion exchange. It also provides a marketplace and shopping. Specifically, our platform is being developed to deliver the following:

- Coin Creation Tool
- Anonymous Staking (via Ring Signatures)
- Digital Asset Exchange
- Mobile Blockchain Storage Platform (ECP)

Other Features

Artax is a community managed platform with its own currency built upon third generation blockchain architecture. A dedicated committee directly manages the direction, development and marketing of the coin. Utilizing the Artax proprietary Encryption Cache Persistence (ECP) protocol in our ART (Accelerated Redis Transfer) node network, the limitations on traditional blockchain protocols have been lifted and a new era in greatly expanded and improved functionality is upon us. Expansion into spaces traditionally dominated by centralized service providers are now far closer to reality given enhanced efficiency built into our third generation blockchain and platform.

Encryption Cache Persistence

Encryption Cache Persistence is a proprietary protocol created by the Artax team which is a fundamentally new way of storing and managing blockchain data as well as other forms of data and works well with decentralized networks. Artax gains significant advantages in efficiency, speed and scalability especially when taking into consideration its use in decentralized protocols where you want to be as efficient with data so that you may allow for sufficient decentralization of the network while maintaining data speed transfer across the entire network without running into the theoretical limits of bandwidth lag (ie. big block size debate as seen with bitcoin vs. bitcoin cash). The base upon which ECP was built by the Artax development team is the Redis (Remote dictionary server) open-source, in-memory, key-value database, Redis is essentially a data structure server that is capable of storing and handling high-level data types and ECP utilizes the Redis architecture as its base and builds additional functionality into the protocol creating a completely new platform specifically tooled to greatly expand the functionality of the Artax platform in the cryptographically secured blockchain space. It is not an understatement to state that ECP implementation could drastically change how the world views the functional capabilities of the blockchain technology space in the years to come. For example, a simple use case for the efficiency gains from the ECP protocol would be the ability to secure, transmit and maintain the blockchain with mobile devices, which no other platform on the market is capable of doing at this moment.

Further enhancements to the Artax protocol could eventually lead to an interface that acts not simply as a wallet, but also incorporates a service exchange (DEX and marketplace capabilities) and also browser integration.

ARTnodes

Accelerated Redis Transfer (ART) Nodes are a significant paradigm shift in how masternodes will function in the future. ARTnodes go far beyond the features and capabilities of regular masternodes with first-in-class advanced features borne out of ArtaxQ such as:

  -Proprietary hashing algorithm that restricts and reduces the flotation of orphan blocks and makes available shared blocks for future use
  -Based off of the highly efficient Quark-hash algorithm with additional Artax improvements
  -Thoroughly been tested on both Redis and RFID protocols opening the platform to revolutionary real world applications
  -Light-weight cryptographic functions with the advanced capacity to adapt
  -Secondary layer of security provided by a proprietary cipher overlaid on the Quark-hash algorithm
  -Input bitstreams are altered in a fashion to future proof Artax (XAX) in the cryptographic landscape and to anchor it in a sponging construction

With the improvements upon the Quark-hash algorithm leading to the development of ArtaxQ, ARTnodes are a significant advancement in masternode technology that run intensive yet lightweight hashing functions to protect, secure, and expand the capabilities of the Artax network.

Standard features are also incorporated in our ARTnodes and are those included in other copy and paste masternode cryptocurrencies:

  -Increased privacy of transactions
  -Instant transaction functions
  -Governance and voting functions
  -Budgeting and Treasury functions

In summary, ARTnodes not only fully encompass standard functions of masternodes, but greatly heighten the functional capacities of decentralized systems to new levels in the blockchain space.

Swap Info
The initial phase for Boxy and ARTX coin swap has concluded, Please visit our Discord server for more information regarding coin swaps from the old chains going forward.

Roadmap/Whitepaper/Litepaper
Coming Soon!

Committee
The Artax Committee is composed of dedicated volunteers of varying backgrounds. It was this committee that came together to decide the specifics of the coin swap for Boxy and the previous Artax blockchain to the new Artax (XAX) specification. Assisted by several developers, the committee will continue to work on the future success of Artax and its relevant technologies. Please note: The is no further affiliation with BoxyCoin. No one from the Artax team has anything to do with BoxyCoin. It was taken over by another developer for completely different purposes and goals. Moving forward the sole focus is the Artax(XAX) platform.

Do you have talent in development, media production, or marketing? If so, please consider joining the Artax committee.

Update 4/23/18:

Hi Current Fellow Artaxers and future Artaxites! We've got a lot of great and exciting news. Please head into our discord to learn about how our platform is evolving and building a completely and fundamentally game changing platform in the cryptospace.

If you are of the TLDR crowd, I'll highlight a few things for you:

Artax Platform is now in Alpha Phase and will soon be in Beta phase for testing:

-A new sister chain is being created to run within platform which will be streamlined with our Encryption Cache Persistence tech.

-Realtime Asset and Cryptocurrency Exchange allowing for Atomic Swaps. This allows for you to trade any lightning network compatible currency with Artax bypassing traditional centralized exchanges and even other decentralized exchanges in favor of a fully decentralized method of exchange.

-Atomic Swap capability with other lightning network capable coins such as BTC, LTC, Decred, DGB, etc..... I know this is a second mention, but this is a very big deal.

-Strip shop functionality- Virtual Shop with Virtual reality integration with the Samsung Gear VR which is completely unique in the space.

-Massively increased transaction times with up to 500k transactions per second.

-Integrated Storage Add-Ons for portable devices. Envision a world where you can use the blockchain to store data right on the ledger. All of this is made possible with Encryption Cache Persistence tech built off of Redis open source software.

-ARTnode holders will have the capacity to vote on the platform and will be able to create their own digital assets, contracts and sub-currencies.

-Decentralized and Encrypted Messaging made easy-the Artax Platform will facilitate both NIST and AES spectrum communications with support of both symmetric and asymmetric block ciphers.

The above are clearly some of the most exciting pieces of the Artax platform puzzle and it is only getting better.

Oh yeah, and the Android XAX wallet will be available soon. Take your XAX on the go!

4/30/18 Update:

Per the new ARTAX/XAX Roadmap we will be continuing the theme of making XAX fully de-centralized without a single point of failure. Artax has never had an ICO and coins have never been sold from the premine. It was always important to the development committee that not one developer had total control over the premine. This is a community coin - for the community and by the community. We look forward to new developers joining the team to work on the new Platform and the DEV - PREMINE MANAGERS having control over how the premine is distributed and used through voting.
The following people are the only ones who hold the premine for XAX. This can be tracked by their respective wallet addresses:
@StakeAndNodes: AYo6KjNbrtH5nuFX4ES7GTq7BN2Gpib6rh - 75088.9525
@gote: ANzsMsk2SrrpN5vyGbXNTXryGJpooXUiQT - 84025.55

@ihackcoinz: ANqYimc5bTtugT98e4ykWp4fCveS86Qv7T - 52161.3825
@calinux: AeAEgnZZMcKxd5DEKDy4VtETLssxvkJkeh - 52161.3825
@CryptoSazerac: AKHfJVADgWPjVDcES5LA98B1wR22tFiqQR - 52161.3825

The above will be the final premine disbursement to continue with the theme of fully de-centralizing Artax without a single point of failure

This premine will be used to pay out any remaining XAX required for the second stage swap and also will be staked 24/7 for at least a 6 month period to allow for creation of the Artax Endowment Fund which will be utilized to continue to expand and improve the Artax Platform.
