Ocupy.net is reborn as Bitalize.com
Blockchain Delivery Network (BDN)
The BDN will power the next generation of applications that must query the blockchain without downloading it. The BDN network exposes the blockchain through a REST API that can be accessed without authentication. The Blockchain Delivery Network will be distributed, scalable and resiliant. The BDN Network builds ontop of the actively developed Bitpay technology stack. The BDN network will have no single point of failure and will try to promote decentralization via educating users on running their own node locally.
Eventually all 31 coins listed on Bitalize.com will be hosted on the BDN network. All applications developed for the BDN will be available to coin devs and their communities. This will increase the adoption and usage of the platform, while improving the security and making Web based wallets obselete.
BlitzNodes
The BDN network will comprise of user operated nodes, this will ensure the network is distributed and impossible to take down. Node operators will earn revenue for running a node, this revenue will come from increased transaction fee's on any application utilizing the BDN network.
When the network goes live BlitzNode operators will be required to hold a minimum of 30K Blitz to host a node. This may seem high but the number of nodes in the BDN network will be limited, this is ensure the profits from running a node are not saturated. To ensure the network provides adequate performance there will be strict technical requirements, some may need to purchase low cost VPS servers. The network will grow as the usage increases, Providing several applications on over thirty blockchains will eventually generate significant revenue from transaction fees.
Our BlitzNode code is being tested internally and is in use by BlitzPay. We hope to release the BDN Beta in the next two weeks.
Please find below the first application developed for the BDN.
BlitzPay
BlitzPay is a trustless multi platform Digital Currency wallet that never transmits the users Private Key to a server. BlitzPay signs transactions locally and uses local storage to hold sensitive information. Bitalize do not have access to your private keys further reducing the level of trust required by our user base. BlitzPay does not rely on a centralized service, a user can operate a local node if required. BlitzPay is a lite wallet that does not require a full blockchain download. BlitzPay is based on the open source HD BIP32 MultiSig wallet Copay developed by Bitpay. BlitzPay will have Chrome, Android, IOS and Windows Phone Applications. See the below link for the chrome application, the mobile wallets will be release sometime in the next week.

**Note** This is Beta software! Do not store large amounts of Blitz, only enough for testing.
Very interesting times ahead
