DAIN

Decentralised Artificial Intelligence Network



INTRODUCTION

Artificial intelligence is positioned at the core of the next-gen software technologies in the market. Companies such as Amazon, Google, IBM and Microsoft have actively implemented AI as a crucial part of their technology. But this comes at a cost: the vast number of computer resources required to perform these tasks. The hardware must be constantly renewed and consumes huge amounts of electricity for cooling. And with the exponentially increasing amount of data to exploit, the trend is only growing.
The cloud market is valued at USD 291 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach USD 1.25 trillion by 2025, at a CAGR of 27.50% during the forecast period. Machine learning is projected to be the segment with highest growth, reaching USD 188.4 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 48.60%.

DAIN COMPONENTS

Understanding and leveraging the possibilities of an artificial brain with unlimited scalability is a complex task. This white paper splits the explanation of DAIN’s potential into three different interlinked components, examined separately and in detail:
DAIN Ecosystem: 
DAIN is created, built, and grown by and for its users. Like theinternet, DAIN users will define what DAIN will become in the future. Users can participate in this ecosystem by playing different roles.
DAIN Solutions: 
The business toolbox designed to offer out-of-the-box value to
DAIN users. 
It aims to streamline the democratization of AI and enable new business models.
DAIN Platform: 
The core underlying infrastructure that enables the ecosystem and the creation of solutions. Its mission is to establish a secure marketplace for computing resources, data and AI models.

How is DAIN comparable to a huge brain?

Any user can teach the brain how to perform certain tasks and subsequently ask for these tasks to be executed. Likewise, another user can ask for the same tasks to be executed, as long as the first user has instructed the brain to allow others to access this knowledge
The brain will remember all the tasks it learns and continuously improve its performance of them. Eventually, it could perform any number of tasks simultaneously, with the sole limitation of its size. The brain has the potential for unlimited growth by adding more computing devices. Like a natural brain, it must consume energy to perform any task. In this case, the energy is the reward given to the device owners.

Our Mission

1. Democratize AI access
AI out-the-box. No restrictions on data, computational resources, knowledge or time to consume AI.
2. Clear monetization models
Create new data-based revenue streams without losing control, ownership or awareness of your model.
3. New business & relationship models
The exchange of exclusive assets and services between companies and their customers/partners.

Why DAIN is necessesary ?

AI entry barriers
Despite its great impact on society and enormous demand, AI and its needs are difficult to understand. Businesses and professionals are not prepared for its large-scale exploitation. These circumstances especially affect the most traditional companies, which are at a disadvantage amid disruptive transformation. To ensure the fair, cheap and agile integration of AI in society, benefiting both companies and their customers, specific tools are needed that address these entry barriers.
Vendor lock-in and neutrality
Black box behavior makes it extremely difficult to audit AI. The models can introduce biases through data, deviating solutions from the desired outcome. Or biases can be introduced by model creators when the created models reproduce representations of reality that do not match their ideological interests. Unaudited AI services from cloud computing service providers increase these problems. It is necessary to give companies the opportunity to choose the most neutral and impartial solutions and avoid vendor lock-in.
Sustainability
Recent studies warn of the huge carbon footprint and the high consumption of electricity resulting from the current approach to Cloud, AI and DLT. Today’s data processing centers consume around 3% of the energy produced by humans, and the power consumption of bitcoin mining already surpasses that of Switzerland. It is not necessary to manufacture more dedicated hardware to cover the technical needs of both technologies. To ensure sustainability, we need to better utilize the resources we already have in a more efficient way.

2Ether

A stable Ethereum fork with a suite of intuitive free tools for

launching infrastructure projects and implementing digital payments

What Is 2Ether?

2Ether is a new digital coin based on the Ethereum blockchain. Unlike ERC20 tokens, it’s a fully independent cryptocurrency – with its own blockchain, mining incentives, and so forth. It fully supports smart contracts written in Solidity and is compatible with Ethereum dApps.

Mission

We aim to select the best of community ideas and bring them to life, building a framework where miners, developers, and the most promising infrastructure projects can thrive.

What’s special about 2Ether?

By using novel data analysis algorithms, we gather the best insights, improvement proposals, and startups. Thanks to 2Ether, you can launch an IEO and get funding for your idea in just two days.

The team of 2Ether has several main objectives

  • Encourage independent CPU/GPU miners and protect them from the dominance of mining farms that use ASIC hardware. This is particularly important now that block rewards in Ethereum have been cut by a third, and market prices are still quite low. Ethereum mining stopped being profitable, pushing small miners out of the market. We realize that inflation can be a problem for any cryptocurrency, so rewards should be reduced with time. But it’s not correct that ASIC farms survive in any market conditions thanks to their economy of scale, while GPU miners suffer. 2Ether solves this problem thanks to its innovative system of dynamic block rewards. The base reward is slowly reduced with time. At the same time, it’s dynamically adjusted for current price. Finally, miners with a low hashrate receive an additional increase.
  • Provide dApp developers with an affordable audit tool. Smart contract audit is very important, as it helps protect investors’ funds. Unfortunately, blockchain security firms charge very high fees even for the simplest audit, and many of these firms don’t render quality services. On 2Ether, projects can apply for free audit – a combination of automated testing and manual reporting, done by specially vetted members of the community. There’s also full paid audit with line-by-line code analysis and multiple reports. 
  • Create an IEO platform integrated with a decentralized exchange and the audit system. IEOs are becoming very popular and will probably replace ICOs. They are much more secure, because projects are vetted by an exchange first. However, exchanges often charge hundreds of thousands of dollars for an ICO, without providing any guarantee of success. 2Ether will offer a decentralized IEO platform where the community does all the evaluation of projects, and all fees are distributed among users. It will be possible to arrange and launch an IEO in just a few days. The new token will be automatically listed on the 2Ether decentralized exchange. Before the IEO, projects can order a smart contract audit on the same platform.
These innovations will take some time to implement. The 2Ether coin will be launched on December 2, 2019 and at first will use the standard PoW mining algorithm with fixed rewards. Nine months into the project, the network will switch to dynamic reward calculation. The decentralized exchange and contract audit functionality will be launched soon after, followed by the IEO platform. 
To promote the project, 2Ether will hold a large-scale airdrop among Ethereum holders. After a snapshot of the Ethereum network on December 2, 2019, everyone who has any ETH in a personal wallet will be able to get 1 ET2 for each ETH they have. Since it’s an airdrop, users won’t be asked to send or exchange any ETH. ET2 coins will be sent automatically.

Challenges and solutions

2Ether doesn’t promise unrealistic processing speeds or an instant transfer to proof-of-stake and other tech that
doesn’t even exist yet. Instead, we offer solutions to real network problems and easy-to-implement use cases.

Problem

  • Block rewards for miners keep getting reduced
  • IEO fundraising is too expensive & unreliable
  • Available audit services have
  • a low quality/price ration
  • Most of raised funds are spent on listing, not development

Solution

  • Dynamic, mission-specific rewards
  • Automated IEO platform with immediate listing
  • Free crowdsourced and AI-powered smart contract audit
  • Built-in decentralized exchange with a near-zero listing fee

Innovative features

2Ether provides a convenient low-cost launchpad for promising startups and rewards all users who benefit the network.
Designed for use in real-world business
The key to-market strategy of 2Ether is to establish partnerships with global and regional crypto payment gateways and online businesses – eCommerce stores, gaming platforms, crowdfunding sites, and so forth.
Free audit of smart contracts
For a project preparing for an IEO, smart contract audit is a crucial step. An audit report proves to potential investors that their funds are safe. Unfortunately, blockchain agencies charge large sums for contract audit – and don’t always deliver a reliable result.
Full IEO Automation
Initial exchange offerings have replaced ICOs as the preferred way of fundraising. Unfortunately, it was quickly turned into an industry. Major exchanges charge hundreds of thousands of dollars to launch an IEO – and don’t provide any guarantee of success.

2Ether DEX

We’ve designed 2EtherDEX to have the best of both worlds. It offers fully automated on-chain order execution and bullet-proof
protection against hacker attacks.
2EtherDEX – take your decentralized trading to a new level
Unlike on centralized exchanges, on 2EtherDEX you never risk losing your money. At the same time, you get solid liquidity, fast order matching, and a range of analytical tools.
You can choose from 3 blockchains: Ethereum, EOS, and TRON, easily trading any token issued in these networks. No listing fees and no trading fees except for the standard blockchain network fee.

2Ether IEO Platform

For a couple of years in 2017-2018, it seemed like Initial Coin Offerings would be the answer to all the funding issues faced by startups. It was a fast, unregulated and cheap way of raising money – basically, a form of crowdfunding. From ICO projects in 2017, the number rose to 2018. The total amount of funds collected by ICOs in 2018 was enormous – over $. (It should be noted that $1.7 billion out of these were raised by Telegram’s blockchain project, TON). On average, an investor of a successful ICO earned 100-200% in profits. People who used to invest in the Forex markets or on crowdfunding platforms rapidly switched to blockchain projects. These investments were particularly attractive because any profit could be converted into Bitcoin or Ethereum and then stored or exchanged into fiat. This income was very easy to hide from the authorities, so investors didn’t have to worry about paying the capital gains tax.
But as the popularity of ICOs increased, it became clear that it’s far from a perfect investment tool. Many serious issues emerged, destroying investors’ trust in Initial Coin Offerings:
  • A very high percentage of fraudulent projects (more than 50%) – token holders had no legal recourse and no way of finding the conmen who disappeared with their money;
  • High costs – an ICO had to have a high budget (over $1 000 000) to attract investors’ attention in such a competitive market. As a result, many talented teams couldn’t afford an ICO;
  • Listing a token on a crypto exchange could be even more expensive than the ICO itself (over $1 mln on some exchanges);
  • Token dumps: a token’s price would rise sharply as soon as it was listed on an exchange, then fall even faster – usually below the ICO price. Those token holders who didn’t manage to dump their tokens at once suffered losses;
  • Project teams spent all their money and effort on marketing their ICO, ignoring product development. As a result, even successful ICOs usually didn’t release any product.

Advantages Of IEOs

An IEO is a new format of raising investments for blockchain projects – much more secure and structured. In this model, it’s not a project itself that organizes a token sale, but a crypto exchange. The project prepares a complete set of documentation and sometimes provides a prototype. The exchange verifies all the documents and the identities of the founders, analyzes the idea’s value, checks the project for legal compliance, etc. If everything is in order, the exchange will agree to hold an IEO for an established fee. It will then notify its customers about the upcoming tokensale.
Usually several rounds of an IEO are organized, and in many cases tokens sell out in minutes and even seconds. The exchange acts as a guarantor that the project is legitimate and all purchased tokens will be delivered. On the other hand, all token buyers are already registered on the exchange and have passed the KYC. So the project team doesn’t have to worry about verifying each buyer. Marketing expenses are much lower, too, because the exchange does some promotion among its audience.
Unfortunately, IEOs have their flaws, too:
  • Exchanges charge too much for an IEO – often more than $100 000;
  • An exchange can cancel an IEO but keep the fee, claiming that the project has violated some rules;
  • Success is not guaranteed: the exchange doesn’t have too much financial interest in promoting an IEO, because it will get its fee anyway.
  • The verification process (due diligence) is nowhere near as rigorous as it should be: smaller exchanges are happy to accept low-quality projects, because it’s a great source of revenue for them.

Details About The ET2 Token

  • Symbol: ET2
  • Blockchain: 2Ether (derived from Ethereum)
  • Decimals: 18
  • Mining algorithm: Proof-of-work with incentives for CPU/GPU miners
  • Average block time: 60 seconds
  • Block reward: first fixed at 5 ET2 per block, then dynamic starting from block 388 800 (around 9 months after launch)
  • Platform governance: decentralized
  • Maximum total supply: 18e14 ET2
  • Pre-mine: will correspond to the number of ETH owned by personal blockchain addresses, as revealed by the network snapshot on December 2, 2019, at 20:00 GMT. The amount will equal the total number of ether in circulation (up to 120 million ETH) – or roughly 0.0016% of the maximum total supply. An additional small number of coins will be pre-mined to reward bounty campaign members and to create a development fund for the project.
  • Distribution of pre-mined ET2: airdrop for Ethereum holders (95%), bounty (1%), reserve fund (4%).
  • Ethereum network snapshot date: December 2, 2019, at 20:00 GMT
  • Airdrop starting date: Airdrop terms and conditions: to receive free ET2 coins, it’s enough to hold ETH in any personal wallet, such as MEW, MetaMask, etc. On December 2, 2019, at 20:00 GMT, a snapshot of the whole Ethereum network will be taken to form a list of all private blockchain addresses holding any ether. These addresses will be eligible for the airdrop. Users who store ETH in exchange wallets will not receive ET2 unless they transfer their ether into a personal wallet shortly before the snapshot. For each ETH a user holds, 1 ET2 will be airdropped. It doesn’t mean any exchange or conversion, of course: the airdrop is completely free. By saying that one receives 1 ET2 for each ETH, it’s meant that the amount of ether in a wallet is used for calculation purposes only.
