maniecool: AUTHPAPER

Authpaper Delivery combines blockchain, BT, cryptography and other current technologies to build a peer-to-peer digital data delivery platform. All data delivered is confidential except the specified recipients. Operations on the data are properly done and recorded among the peers so that the delivery histories are public verifiable yet unforgeable. Peers are rewarded by delivering the encrypted pieces of digital data and helping to run the platform with good will.

With a vision of building trust across real and digital world, Authpaper limited has been providing software solutions on e-document anti-forgery based and testing web and mobile applications against common cyberattacks. The core technology inside Authpaper Limited is based on an award-winning research project Authpaper by Solon during his research study. Authpaper Limited also developes blockchain-based solutions for their clients. Recently, an e-document blockchain signing solution is created which allows users to circulate and sign a document, all signatures are certified by solicitors and signing records are stored on blockchain. Authpaper Limited is research oriented company, holding at least one PCT patent already since founding 2 years ago.

There are ways to deliver data via digital channels like emails, BitTorrent, instant messaging and centralized servers. However, only physical mailing allows the document to be confidential, provides trustworthy mailing record, and easy to use. Hence, it is still dominant even in this highly digitalized world.

In the era of information technology, technology advancements have changed human lives by a lot. However, document delivery, especially commercial and important ones, are still following years old methods, physical mailing. Physical mailing takes a lot of time and spends a lot of resources.

Besides, it is well-known that all printed documents/ credentials are potentially subject to forgery. Every year, billions USD has lost directly due to document fraud.

In this project, we would like to combine blockchain and other current technologies to build a peer-to-peer digital data delivery platform. All data delivered is confidential except the specified recipients. Data is verified to be unchanged down to every single bit.

Operations on the data are properly done and recorded among the peers so that the delivery histories are public verifiable yet unforgettable. Peers are rewarded by delivering the digital data and helping to run the platform with good will.

This platform also works as a decentralized document certification and circulation system. It allows users to issue documents under their email / name and send to other like certificates. Authorized people can “sign” a data (e.g. contract) from others and cannot deny it afterwards. The protection can be readily extended to even the physical copies, with our award-winning document authentication technology.

Authpaper coins (AUPC) (ERC-20 based) is released in this ICO to raise fund for development and testing of the platform. When the platform is ready, investors can exchange the AUPC to the stamps in Authpaper delivery platform and enjoy the service.

The Problem

In the era of information technology, technology advancements have changed human lives by a lot. However, document delivery and huge data transfer, especially commercial and important ones, are still following years old methods, physical mailing. Physical mailing takes a lot of time and spends a lot of resources. Printed documents/ credentials are potentially subject to forgery. Every year, billions USD has lost directly due to document fraud. Current digital delivery solutions are mostly centralized, privacy cannot be guaranteed.

The Solution

Authpaper Delivery combines blockchain, BT, cryptography and other current technologies to build a peer-to-peer digital data delivery platform. All data delivered is confidential except the specified recipients. Data is verified to be unchanged down to every single bit. Operations on the data are properly done and recorded among the peers so that the delivery histories are public verifiable yet unforgettable. Peers are rewarded by delivering the encrypted pieces of digital data and helping to run the platform with good will.

The Applications

Commercial

Documents and data can be circulated inside this platform instead of printing out and wasting time to moving around people for confirmations.

Trading

With this platform, the time for mailing is saved because the documents are sent instantly over the Internet and it is confidential with public verifiable record on mailing and document source.

Document Certificate

With this platform, it allows company and authorities to issue unforgettable document certificates for different purposes.

Legal and Compliance

With this platform, document sender can send a data with full delivery record, including how the document is delivered, by when and who the data is picked. If the delivery is failed, a record of attempting delivery is recorded on blockchain as smart contract. Hence it fits in the legal and compliance need.

System Maintenance

With this platform, companies can send the snapshot confidentially online. All data has integrity checking and encrypted. The data is sent via BT protocol, data transfer can be readily continued after connection lost. On the download side, the data is transferred from multiple peers, increasing the data delivery rate.

With this platform, video owners can create videos with random noise one by one first and send to the platform. Video owners only need to keep the original copy of the video, and the torrent file for each modified copy. The customer will download a protected video copy so that whenever there is a video leak, video owner can trace it back.

Token Sale and ICO Details

To make this platform happens, external resources like funding, test users and marketing partners are necessary. To reward the contributions of others and fund raising, we will create an ERC-20 based coin, Authpaper Coin (AUPC) and distribute to the investors and partners. As Authpaper Delivery platform requires a customized blockchain, the coin cannot be used directly on it. Once the platform is ready, we will provide an offer to exchange the coins with Authpaper stamp, the currency in the platform, at a certain rate. Coin holders can also trade the coins on public exchanges or use it to redeem other services from us. Here is a simple comparison between the coin and the stamp.
