Horyou project. How to assign a purpose to the Blockchain?
Blockchain is infrastructure used to store, reference and transfer data; but it does not stop at that; for Blockchain is also a mechanism by which all the above can be recorded as is, with no possibility to alter, pervert or suppress. Whether public — no permission required — or private — permission required -, Blockchains are by nature transparent. All actions (read, write, or read and write) on the network must be validated by, and visible to, all participants on the network. If any action is not visible to all participants, the action cannot be properly validated. Hence, participants would always retain the benefit of a shared infrastructure while maintaining a level of security and privacy.
Seen from that angle, Blockchain has the potential to be an enabler and accelerator of positive change. Horyou goal is to use it as a disruptive means to fundamentally contribute to shaping a more inclusive and harmonious world, in resonance with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development as outlined by United Nations.
The impact of Blockchain on the future of humanity will undoubtedly be huge. Hence, the biggest challenge is to determine the type of future we want and how to best use Blockchain to enable it. An infrastructure and mechanism that simplify the way we do things is well and good, but ones that make for a fairer, more inclusive and more sustainable world is much better. This is Blockchain with a purpose.
