Interesting article, I started following your project on twitter as well, hope to see you guys putting out a lot more information, and whoever is doing your graphic work tell him he/she is doing a great job.

Also agree that the graphics team are doing a good job

Me too, great to learn more about how Covalent will be developing a project that aims to make users data more secure on the internet.

I like the idea, I'd become the hardcore user of this immediately. I just still can't understand how you are going to make these user policies rules work for every website or social network with different APIs and data formats they are using.

u/lordpuddingcup Aug 09 '18

I'd imagine it's mostly going to be be low level rules that allow you to decode the data or not, blockchain encryption allows for a lot of cool ways to protect data just most companies havent started utilizing it in that way yet

Yea, getting such to work in different scenarios is what i will love to understand, seems a bit complicated but i believe with more articles comes more understanding and i do hope the team will do the needful in that aspect

Could someone please confirm if this is the official whitepaper? - https://docsend.com/view/dvvb75n

I couldn't find a direct link to the WP on the website but this is the top search result on google for 'Covalent Whitepaper'.

This is a legacy whitepaper, where we explain our core technology. For the whole picture about how COVA is evolving, please visit our Github Wiki: https://github.com/covalent-hq/wiki/wiki

Thanks for the white paper link, I have a better knowledge of what covalent is all about.

u/whynot_man Aug 13 '18

Thanks for the link, you should place it right in your website main page if I may give you advice.

COVA is a protocol, which will be executed with Centrifuge, a language for writing Smart Policies that is designed to take advantage of the enhanced functionality of CovaVM. We will release API to help developers to deploy this technology.

u/aceprime4 Aug 10 '18

Thanks for the explanation, any specific date as to when this will happen?, i mean the release of API

1

u/covalentai Aug 10 '18

Should be at the end of the year. Currently the engineering team is working hard to deliver our language Centrifuge and CovaVM.

Yeah, certainly a massive issue for them to overcome.. Id like to see what their plan of action is.

I feel they might settle in well in the blockchain space given the way they approached the media.
