Quadrant Protocol

 

Quadrant Protocol

Major tech companies have actively reoriented themselves around AI and machine learning: Google is now AI-first, Uber has ML running through its veins and internal AI research labs keep popping up.
They’re pouring resources and attention into convincing the world that the machine intelligence revolution is arriving now. They tout deep learning, in particular, as the breakthrough driving this transformation and powering new self-driving cars, virtual assistants and more.
But at which specific situation are we going to use ML or AI in or daily life, you may ask. But the real question is, which applications are you using in your daily life that contains Machine Learning or AI algorithm. Because ML and AI are in our daily life already. The only thing is they needed to be worked on more, to be able to be more useful.
Today, an AI and ML contained programs can

• Recognize objects in images
• Navigate a map of the London Underground
• Translate between languages
• Speak
• Recognise emotions in speech
• Drive
• Fly a Drone
• Discover new uses for existing drugs

Overview

Vast amounts of authentic data are needed to power today’s algorithms, however the current data economy is fraught with problems. There is an ever-widening gap between those with the resources to collect and store their own data and those that do not. The data these have-nots do have access to is often fragmented and of questionable authenticity—the kind of data that produces poor results when fed to algorithms. Part of the reason why the data lacks authenticity is because the suppliers of it are not properly incentivized. Fair revenue distribution does not exist for both data producers and vendors. Without a healthy and transparent data economy, the increasing demand for authentic data will not be met. Quadrant aims to solve these problems by providing a blueprint for mapping disparate data sources. It will support proof of data authenticity and provenance via data stamping, the creation of “Constellations” (data smart contracts) for disparate data sources, and fair remuneration and incentive sharing. Data Consumers can trust the authenticity of the data they purchase, “Nurseries” (Data Producers) are compensated fairly every time their data is used, and “Pioneers” (Data Vendors) have the incentive to create innovative Constellations. This new transparent ecosystem ensures that companies get the authentic data they need.
Quadrant is designed to work with both centralised and decentralised services. The architecture consists of the core Quadrant blockchain, clients (Data Producer, Data Consumer and Anchor), and Guardian Nodes. Quadrant will operate on a Proof of Authority consensus mechanism so that it can handle more transactions, operate at a lower gas price, achieve faster transactions, and restrict malicious nodes from entering data into the network. An external Proof of Work chain will be used as an anchor for security purposes. For the time being, the Ethereum blockchain will be used for anchoring but it can be replaced by any public chain in the future if needed.

Fair Revenue Distribution

Producers of the original data sources have it the worst with respect to revenue distribution. They need to be incentivised to continue producing data, yet more often than not they are paid just once for the data that they provide. It is the Data Vendors that have the ability to resell the same data again and again. There is no way for the producers to find out what happens to the data downstream, where it goes and for what purpose. What this does is cast an opaque layer over the data, so that the producers have no idea of how much money they are owed.

Atomic Data Producers (ADPs)

At this level of the data value chain, the biggest problem is that the ADPs are not paid their fair share of the revenue made by the data that they produce. Individual data has little value on its own. Its real value is derived when it is combined with other data sets. As a result, most data producers will sell their data up the value chain to aggregators and resellers who can sell interesting data sets alongside one another to multiply the impact of the insights. The problem for ADPs is that they receive payment only once, no matter how many times the data is resold via the resellers and aggregators. Each additional sale beyond the initial transaction (between the ADP and the reseller) does not translate into revenue for the ADP. That is not the only thing working against ADPs. With existing data transaction architectures, there are prohibitive costs incurred in compensating ADPs for the data that they provide. Take a CSV file that has thousands of medical prescriptions sourced from multiple ADPs as an example. Figuring out the exact percentage of revenue to share amongst the contributing ADPs is inherently cumbersome and expensive.

Use Case for Quadrant and Constellations

Let one consider a real example of a data value chain for Mobile Location Intelligence data: a government body is doing a project in which it wants to understand the most crowded roadways in the morning and understand where everyone comes from. To execute this study, the government will enlist a Mobile Location Intelligence company to do this work. This intelligence company will gather data from multiple Location Aggregators who source the data from the many SDK providers that produce this data. These SDK providers install their libraries in thousands of Apps from publishers who in turn have their Apps installed in millions of mobile devices. It is quite complex for such a simple use case. By making Constellations available on Quadrant, they can be aggregated to form new Constellations at each level along the data value chain. It will never be the case in which the top Data Consumer sources directly from the millions of devices. What the Quadrant protocol can enable is that when the top layer Constellation is purchased, then all the corresponding Constellations are also triggered, hence enabling the release and remuneration of each party from the Location Aggregators, to the SDKs and Publishers.

Widespread Token Distribution

New use cases are projected to emerge in which individual devices and sensors are remunerated for their data contributions. Applications that source from IoT or mobile devices require millions of individual endpoints to produce useful data products. Each of these endpoints will require remuneration in the form of micro-payments. These payments will be made using the QUAD ICO token of the Quadrant network.

XTRD - Wall Street Style

XTRD - Wall Street Style

 XTRD wants to bring a new level of technological sophistication to the world of cryptocurrency trading, providing its customers with enormous advantages in the process.

Much has been made of the built-in advantages professional traders enjoy on Wall Street. There has been a lot of ink spilled about the lengths to which brokerage firms will go to get their trades in a millisecond sooner, from relocating their trading floors closer to the heart of the action to investing heavily in technology that speeds transactions.

The same dilemmas have plagued the cryptocurrency market since its infancy, but now that cryptocurrency is suddenly popular, the built-in bottlenecks are becoming all too apparent. Many cryptocurrency traders found out just how hard buying and selling could be during periods of peak trading, with many finding themselves locked out of their accounts for long periods of time. 

Now a new company aims to remove many of those bottlenecks and make the trading of cryptocurrencies easier and more intuitive. XTRD wants to bring a new level of technological sophistication to the world of cryptocurrency trading, providing its customers with enormous advantages in the process.

As the cryptocurrency market has grown up, more and more people have come to see Bitcoin, Ethereum, and altcoins as valid investments, not just currencies used to buy goods online. As the move from payment system to investment has evolved, so has the advice financial advisors have given their clients.

While many financial advisors are still wary of cryptocurrencies, others are taking a more nuanced approach. Instead of advising their clients to avoid the asset class entirely, they are encouraging buyers to spread the risk around by creating a basket of cryptocurrencies – a sort of crypto mutual fund. 

Until now, creating that basket and tracking the performance of so many cryptocurrencies could be a real nightmare, but the executive team at XTRD hopes to change all that.

The concept behind XTRD is still relatively new, but the company has already achieved some impressive partnerships. The team has been working on the XTRD model since July of 2017, and they are working closely with the CME group to disseminate market data.

The team at XTRD is also considering a strategic partnership with Oracle, one that would allow the company to participate in the popular fintech niche. Fintech is bigger than ever before, with many brokerage firms and financial planning agencies incorporating technology into their operations.

The emergence of so-called robo-advisors has spurred the adoption of fintech by brokerage firms and financial planning firms, so a strategic partnership with a market leader like Oracle makes perfect sense. This kind of partnership should allow the company to take advantage of a growing marketplace and position the firm for future growth.

In addition to those partnerships, XTRD has also teamed up with CEX.IO in an attempt to custody clients for SPA. The firm has also developed relationships with major banks to facilitate crypto to fiat dark pool transactions, something that will be very important going forward. 

The world of cryptocurrency is changing, and so is the way people and companies do business. By bringing the power of Wall Street technology to real-life traders, XTRD hopes to facilitate transactions, remove bottlenecks and make trader’s lives easier.

XTRD - United Exchange

TRADE will be launching a new cryptocurrency trading platform in early 2018 to solve the painful problems currently faced by the worldwide crypto trading community. Currently, crypto trading exists over 60 fractured and decentralized liquidity pools.

Those pools require users open multiple exchange accounts to get best prices, code to varying and undocumented API’s to access exchanges, and lack professional order entry systems. The experience is decades behind the standard of the internet and finance and is defined by slow execution speed and antiquated, unsecure web based trading.

XTRADE promises to change all that. It will simplify access to crypto, increase liquidity, and provide a secure, modern trading platform to crypto markets participants across the world.

The team behind XTRADE has over 30 years of extensive real-world experience building robust, battle tested trading systems in FX, Equities, Derivatives, and other instruments. They have specialist knowledge in all facets of brokerage services, execution, market data, trading platforms, clearing, settlement, algorithmic trading, and automated trading systems. XTRADE principals and advisors own crypto exchanges — and have worked in active trading firms all over the world as well as large financial institutions such as Goldman Sachs, Barclays, Lehman, Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan in technology, operational, and sales roles.

XTRADE will release a unified, familiar FIX API to allow institutions easy access to all exchanges with one simple interface at latency 100x lower than current crypto trading standards.

XTRADE Pro, a secure downloadable trading platform will be released following the launch of the FIX API. Pro will feature consolidated order books that will display prices across all exchanges in real time, hotkey order entry, and custom order types. Later in 2018, XTRADE will set up liquidity pools at all major exchanges and allow clients to trade across numerous exchanges with just ONE account at a partner exchange, while assuming all counterparty risk.

The FIX API has been completed and is already in production. XTRADE is setting up co-locations at major data centers all over the world and already connecting to multiple exchanges in 2017.

XTRADE brings real world, patent pending technology and industry tested revenue models to the still young crypto space. The XTRADE experience will be defined by what traders and technologists expect: high frequency execution, normalized market data, VPS services, order management systems, software licensing, and white labeling, among others.

As the crypto markets grow from $200 Billion to $2 Trillion and beyond, XTRADE will be the de-facto “plumbing” connecting decentralized exchanges and enabling arbitrage with token swaps across the ecosystem with one account, while reducing execution slippage, lowering costs, and enabling cross-exchange trading via secure, end to end encrypted connections.

XTRADE is entering multiple partnerships (to be announced soon) and facilitating the “bridge” for the financial industry to enter the blockchain and crypto trading space.
#XTRD #cryptocurrency #cryptotrading


The XTRD utility token, fully ERC20 compliant, will be utilized on the XTRADE network by market participants to pay for execution, VPS, market data, software licensing, credit interest spreads, and other fees. Market participants will be able to purchase XTRD tokens directly from XTRADE’s internal liquidity pool and secondary liquidity sources.

The official date for the presale and token generation event will be announced in the near future.
