Why blockchain?

Blockchain is not the product. It is the trust layer underneath it.

Locality uses a public, permissionless blockchain to make organizational activity verifiable, traceable and independently auditable.

Verifiable

Actions and records can be independently verified against the network.

Transparent

Network activity can be inspected and audited rather than existing only inside a private application database.

Persistent

Records are maintained by the network rather than depending entirely on a single application's database.

Permissionless

Applications can interact with the network without requiring approval from a single platform operator.

The organization defines the rules. Locality provides the infrastructure to make them verifiable.

What is recorded on the blockchain

The organization

Communities, Teams and Sub-teams, their members and each member's role.

The tokens

Community Token balances and every transfer.

The decisions

Polls, votes and results. Anonymous ballots are recorded as encrypted votes with proofs.

The bookings

Appointments and queue entries, with their deposits.

What stays in the app

Sign-in accounts

Your email or phone number and your password are kept by the app, not written to the blockchain.

Invitations and requests

They live in the app until they are decided. The membership that results goes on the blockchain.

Profile details

The names, descriptions and pictures shown in the app are kept in its database.

A fast copy

The app keeps a copy of the blockchain's records so pages load quickly. The blockchain stays the record.

Build what your organization needs.
