CYBER REPUBLIC Weekly Update/Issue 11
Welcome, believers of the new internet.
First of all, Happy Chinese New Year!
This week has several intriguing updates
about Elastos and the Cyber Republic.
Elastos announced the unbelievable
accomplishment of launching 1 million
carrier nodes. Next, there was the unveiling
of the official Elastos EOY Report. There's
also a new DMA 1.0 Beta update, a React
Native suggestion seeking votes, and an
out-of-the-box idea on the CR Forum. Let's
get into it.
On January 28th, the Elastos Foundation
officially announced the 1 million node
mark. Through their strategic hardware
partnership with Shanghai Shijiu TV, it has
been an outstanding success since it
deployed in August of 2018. Each one of the
Shijiu TV Boxes contains a node on Elastos'
decentralized carrier (P2P network) that
“circumvents the traditional “client-server”
model where one's device needs to
connect to a centralized server. Elastos
stands out as the first Web 3.0 project to
reach the 1 million node milestone. Plans
with Shijiu TV for 2019 include further
applying DID in IoT devices (i.e. TV boxes),
the use of DID to link internet users to the
blockchain, and promoting the TV boxes that
provide basic node network services for the
modern internet.
The next set of important news is in the
awaited Elastos End-of-Year report. We want
to share some important pieces regarding
the Cyber Republic:
It has been re-emphasized that the Elastos
Foundation is fully dedicated to the gradual
transfer of power to the Cyber Republic.
Elastos sees the CR as a platform of
meaningful involvement - the Foundation
encourages people to contribute as
opportunities become available. Some
important milestones on the roadmap
include the Cyber Republic Elections in June
and in Q3, the Cyber Republic official launch
where everything has been handed over to
the community as a fully operational and selfgoverned
decentralized organization. After
the Elections have concluded in August of
2019, the Elastos Foundation's role will be
greatly diminished. Marketing, PR, and
community activities will solely be run by
members of the CR community.

DMA (Decentralized Marketing
Platform) has come out with their 1.0
Beta release details.

Included in the DMA 1.0 beta release is
the base and service layer.The base layer
acts as a connector to the Elastos
infrastructure, which provides private
APIs to the service layer. The service
layer puts together the base layer and
asset management business logic and
provides public APIs to Dapp developers.
Five modules (Passport, Asset
Management, Wallet, Storage, Utility)
can be accessed by developers via their
Public APIs for Asset Management
purposes. Developers with experience
can customize these modules to their
liking. The sixth module, Merchant, is an
all-in-one suite of merchant-related
business logic--a nifty tool to build on for
developers.
Uptick, the inaugural dAPP powered by
DMA, contains a specific ticketing layer
(Uptick Ticket Service) along with clients
for consumers and merchants (Uptick
Merchant dApp client and Uptick
Android dAPP client. This month DMA
plans to roll out a real business plan for
the Uptick project, so stay tuned!
There's a new program in DMA called the
“Early Access Program”. (EAP) DMA is
looking to corral 3-5 projects for which
they will provide technical support.
Included in this initiative will be
continued business development and
localisation of the Uptick dApp. DMA
wants Uptick to be run by the community
in a decentralized fashion. If you are
interested, please contact the team with
messages and proposals by the end of
February.

All materials included in the DMA 1.0 beta
release will be posted on its website
within the next couple of weeks.

Shout out to one of the CR community
members, Econymous, for publishing an
enlightening idea for the Cyber Republic
ecosystem.
https://forum.cyberrepublic.org/t/perpet
ual-funding-perfect-participationdistribution-for-daos/493/7
The author is trying to achieve fair
distribution through a smart contract
that ultimately can be “used to enhance
the delegate layer of DPOS sidechains,
sharding...or function as the fundraising
and governance distribution mechanism
for DAO's”. This contract is made up of
“bonds” that it generates based on buys
and sells. Every time someone buys the
contract with ELA, the price and supply
increases. Whenever someone sells the
price, the supply decreases (bonds
burned). Whenever a bond is sold the
user gets “resolve tokens” in return.
Here is the formula: Resolve tokens =
input ELA * ( input ELA / output ELA ) An
example is if someone spends 10 ela on a
contract, and then the value drops down
to half, they will receive 20 resolve
tokens for selling at a loss (10 ELA * (10
ELA / 5 ELA)= 20 Resolve tokens). Vice
versa, if the price of ELA doubled then
//3

CYBER REPUBLIC Weekly Update/Issue 11
the user would receive 5 ELA selling the
contract. (10 ELA * (10 ELA / 20 ELA) = 5
Resolve tokens).
The resolve tokens could be staked in the
core contract for dividends, or on a side
chain. Holders of these tokens can also
“dictate the transaction fee, staking
requirement, delegate requirements...” He
states this to be “whale-proof ” in the sense
that if they buy massive amounts of
resolve tokens, then the supply inflates,
which lessens the demand of the contract
and increased selling pressure at a lower
rate. Several people believe this to be,
while controversial,an intriguing proposal,
and we’ll be encouraging more discussion
on this topic in the upcoming weeks.
Significant updates were made to the
Trinity browser. Besides a few fixed bugs,
unified import repository supports the
establishment of IOS and Android apps
along with the optimization of the
toolchain for Runtime.
Thanks to all our Cyber Republicans
posting on the new CR Forum and
showing their love--onwards and
upwards.

Lastly, there are three new updates that
the community will certainly get excited
about:
Coranos has officially sent the Elastos
Ledger dApp to Ledger for finalization.
Information regarding the Elastos DpoS

Like Trinity Project, React Native is
another way to develop dApps, but
everything has pros and cons. Trinity
and React Native dAPPs are both written
in JavaScript though with different
frameworks: ionic vs React Native.
Trinity apps are web apps, and React
Native apps are native apps.
Highlight:
React Native
By Kenneth K.
React Native alpha was released last week, and
without approval, there won’t be a beta. We’ve
decided to highlight the React Native project in
order to encourage support for this important
piece of the Cyber Republic.
React Native has always been a community project;
Elastos Foundation is focused on the Trinity Project.
Now that all CR tasks and projects are no longer paid
out of the Elastos Foundation’s pocket, just like
every other CR project, React Native must go
through the proper protocols of suggestionapproval-voting-funding.
This, even though the
Foundation certainly saw the value of supporting the
React Native team in the past.
Simply said, React Native needs the community’s
support and approval to obtain funding.
But what is React Native and why is it necessary?
This means that React Native apps
would be much faster, but Trinity allows
for the same code to be used for all
platforms run within the Trinity browser.
React Native, however, can only work in
Android and iOS while Trinity is able to
run on anything that supports the
browser from Windows to iOS and
Android, etc.
So why should the Cyber Republic fund
React Native?
Because developers love their choices.
The more options, the more dApps, the
more adoption. We all know the truth of
this. Projects with the most talented and
numerous developers are the projects
that succeed.The advice to crypto
investors to “Follow the developers”
holds a lot of truth.
While it is very reasonable for Elastos
Foundation to focus on only one of
these DApp platforms, this is the exact
reason that the Cyber Republic exists:
to encourage mass adoption with all the
micromanaging that only a large and
passionate community can do.
The Cyber Republic is the reason that
the “small but important” things will
always get done, and as far as we’re
concerned, for the sake of attracting
developers, this is a “big but important”
project that needs the support of the
entire Cyber Republic community.

Interview:
React Native Dev Team
By Kenneth K
React Native is a framework that allows developers to use JavaScript to develop mobile apps on
Elastos. As mentioned, the team has just finished the alpha and they are waiting on CR approval and
funding to finish the beta.
We had the chance to interview a couple of the members of the React Native team:Adem and Eric.
Jacky, who worked on integrating Elastos Carrier, wasn’t available to answer questions.
1. What is your background, and how did you come to be part of the React Native project
on Elastos?
Eric: My name is Eric and I have 3 years experience of blockchain development with 8
years background in software development. I worked on several blockchain teams and
worked as a core and GUI developer. I was more focused on GUI work about 30/70 core to
GUI. GUI work is stuff like the electron wallet, web wallet, mobile wallet, dApps, etc. I
came to be part of the React Native team because I was looking for a new blockchain job
and heard that Elastos was starting new project. So I reached out to KP and did an
interview with him and Clarence. They invited me on soon after.
Adem: My name is Adem. I am an independent mobile app developer focused on projects
related to blockchain technology. I started programming 10 years ago for my studies
(bioinformatics), and I was mostly involved in big data analysis.At the moment, I’m the lead
mobile developer at the QRL project and I’m in charge of the development of the mobile
wallet (coming soon to the app stores) https://github.com/theQRL/mobile-wallet. I heard
about the React Native Elastos project through a post from KP on the r/reactnative
subreddit, and I took on the iOS part for the SPV wallet development.
2. How would you explain what React Native is?
Adem: The apps developed using RN become native to their devices. These are not
webapps.The code is written for the corresponding native components (for iOS and
Android).Thankfully, the majority of the code can still be reused between iOS and Android.
RN developers can also use most of the existing npm packages. If needed, some native
code can be integrated as well.This is what we did as different components of the Elastos
project were written in C or C++.The idea was to implement "bridges" using the native
language of the platform (Objective-C for iOS and Java for Android) and therefore be able
to call the native function directly from JavaScript.
3.Alpha is done, and "beta" is put on hold until it's approved by the CR. Could you explain
what beta would entail, and why it should be suggested and approved by the CR
community?
Adem: We successfully released the alpha version of the project that allows: creating a
wallet, seeing the balance, seeing the list of recent transactions, and sending transactions
//11

CYBER REPUBLIC Weekly Update/Issue 11
(not yet available for iOS). We created
different npm packaged for the different
components (SPV, wallet, and carrier) as well
as demo apps to showcase the use of the
these packages.The idea for beta is to release
a complete React Native framework
containing all the required Elastos elements
(SPV, carrier, p2p...) so that developers can use
React Native to develop dApps using RN
(JavaScript).
4. Is there any special insight you have on the
value of working on React Native?
Adem: The React Native framework can bring
a lot to Elastos as it will help developers
create dApps much faster. React Native
started as a "cheap and quick" alternative to
native app developments, but this is not true
anymore as big companies are also using
React Native now.There’s no need to learn all
the new native languages (Objective-C vs
Swift for iOS, Java vs Kotlin for Android), just
JavaScript. In addition, the available 300,000+
npmjs packages are always available to help
developers.
Eric: I agree with Adem. Right now, Javascript
is widely used in software development.
React.js is for web development. React Native
for mobile development is now in-fashion in
the IT industry because developers can
produce useful, scalable, and easy-to-maintain
applications. I believe that once React Native
on Elastos is done, it would appeal to a lot of
developers, and thus, more users.
5. What's your honest insight on where
progress still needs to be made, and what do
you find most exciting about React Native
integration on a practical level (an example
that the average user would understand)?
Adem: The RN project relies a lot on the core
Elastos code, and therefore the organization
of the core repositories is very important.
Correct naming and explanation for every
single repository in https://github.com/elastos
makes it sometimes really difficult to
//12
understand what's happening.The end-goal
of the RN project is to release the RN
framework containing all essential libraries
needed to interact with the node.
Developers can easily download the
framework and starting working
immediately, no need to bother with
underlying code.This will result in an
increased number of dApps and a broader
community reach.
Eric: Regarding RN project, it should be
developed a lot more right now.Though the
alpha was done which is a good way to
demonstrate the proof of concept, in
production, it has no value. It’s my opinion
that RN project is really what should be
worked on in the next stage of Elastos. One
thing that excites me? Working on alpha gave
me some great experiences in team
collaboration.The core team fixed bugs in
the core codebase as soon as I reported
them. Elastos clearly has a very strong team
collaboration, which is incredibly important.
6. I would love to hear what's next for all of
you. Is there more work you'd like to be part
of? Or is there a new direction you're taking,
even if it's outside Elastos?
Adem: As mentioned, I am already involved in
the development of the mobile wallet for the
QRL project. In addition, I’d love to release a
functional mobile wallet for the Elastos
project. I’m sad that we’ve had to "pause" the
project after everything we’ve learned
together.Thus, I am spending my own time to
try to put things together and get something
out--a very simple and proper looking mobile
wallet for Elastos. I even made some designs
for it in line with the new website's design
and styling guidelines.
Eric: I am looking forward to continuing
work on the RN project. I’ve worked on
several blockchain teams, but I've never seen
such an interesting and unique project so far.
I am looking for another blockchain job right
now but I am always ready for Elastos.

7. What are your opinions about the Cyber
Republic?
Adem: I heard about the CR after starting this
project. I really like the initiative and am looking
forward to seeing it active. It seems to me that
the Elastos Foundation is focused on the main
code, the nodes, the explorer, the wallet…
However, this is the base of every blockchain
projects so the rest of the infrastructure
(community, dapps, everyday usage) is also very
important (maybe even more?) which is where
the Cyber Republic plays an essential role.
he is a cyborg controlled by a particularly
advanced AI.
Eric: KP is a good guy, he knows where we are
and what we need to do technically. He
creates a good environment for us
developers. While we were working on the
alpha, his communication with the core
team was incredibly important and he solved
our issues quickly so that we could continue
working without hesitation. I like working
with KP.
Eric: I have no concerns. Every team has their
strategies.
8. Would you like to see any type of special
structure built on the Cyber Republic to
increase awareness and funding for developers?
In your ideal world, where would funding go
next?
Adem: I think the Cyber Republic should
support anything that makes Elastos more
accessible. In terms of development, this means
dApps; the more dApps the better the
community.Therefore, making dApp
development easy should be a major priority. I
know it might sound extreme, but one should
even think of a WYSIWYG solution to build
dApps.
WYSIWYG is an acronym for,“What You See Is What You
Get.” WYSIWYG is a way of designing electronic
documents so that content such as text and graphics is
displayed on screen during editing in a way that
corresponds exactly to its appearance when printed or
displayed as a finished product.
https://www.tectite.com/tutorials/aboutwysiwyg.php?WWWTECTITE=xivznebm
Eric: RN project should be developed in the
future. I am waiting.
9. Is KP a vampire? Does he ever sleep?
Adem: Hmmm... he knows too much about
technology to be "just" a vampire. I believe that

CYBER REPUBLIC Weekly Update/Issue 11
Guest Article: Michael “Econymous”
As mentioned in the intro, CR member, Michael “Econymous” has made an interesting proposal,
initially as a forum post, seen here:
https://forum.cyberrepublic.org/t/perpetual-funding-perfect-participation-distribution-for-daos/493
We reached out to him to discuss the most controversial part of his proposal, an inverted pyramid
that seems to reward those that lost the most financially with greater governance over the
ecosystem as a counter to the rich gaining too much power in a community consensus-based
governance system. Here is his impressive explanation:
One of the major challenges in the crypto space is distribution. Perfecting it has
implications for stable growth, democratized governance, and incentivizing the advance
of the industry. But achieving this distribution has been elusive because those with more
money and power have been able to buy-out the little guy and wield their influence in
ways to funnel further profits into their own pockets.The “resolve distribution”
hypothesis may provide a solution to this dilemma.
The idea is controversial, so the core concept is best addressed immediately. It involves
inverting a pyramid scheme to generate “resolve tokens.” The pyramid is hosted by a
smart contract, modeled after Jochen Hoenicke’s Ponzi Token.The original contract is
simple; sending ETH to the contract will mint bonds within the contract, and the price of
each bond increases as the supply of bonds increases. Selling bonds back to the
contract will burn the bonds and reward ETH.This functions as a typical pyramid
scheme, because if other people buy in after the first person, the bonds of the first
person increases in value, and they can sell the bonds back to the contract and turn a
profit while leaving the last buyers with a smaller net worth.
The beauty of smart contracts is that they can capture that exact decline in price & use
it as a multiplying variable when minting new tokens.This delivers a ratio of loss against
the slope of the pyramid that meets a monetary value of distribution. Most people lose
out on a pyramid scheme. So that means most people get that multiplier. By definition,
“most people” is “most distributed”.And you get it at a ratio to investment.
Half of the value is that it’s distributed, the other half is that the distribution is fair to
those who hold the right to a weighted vote.Another value of resolves is that they earn
dividends from a fee applied to every buy and sell of bonds.The implementation of this
fee is variable.
The final feature to the resolve token is that it’s centralization resistant.A whale would
need an exceptional amount of buying power.As the pyramid drops, creating resolve
//14

tokens will cost less and less ETH to mint.”
In the proposal, Michael presents the “proof of weak hands” concept, which essentially
proposes that the greatest losers who don’t care about the ecosystem will sell their
contract tokens immediately for whatever profit they can, while the strong hands will
hold on to their contract tokens even if they lost money because of their faith in the
project.

CYBER REPUBLIC Weekly Update/Issue 11
Project Feature:“Doing”
By Jeremy G.
Introducing “Doing”-- a fitness dApp that
rewards people for playing sports.The
“Doing” dApp tracks your movements and
distance travelled, aggregates the data, and
analyzes it. Data is analyzed and the user is
given ownership of their data, it can then
be sold to 3rd parties anonymously. How
does this dApp work? What's in it for the
3rd parties? What does the roadmap look
like? How about the team?
“Doing” is a dApp powered by A.I. and block
encryption.The application itself
implements technology to track
movements of athletes as they play sports.
Initially, it will comprise of functionality to
track running, walking, and simple distance
activities. In the future “Doing” wants to
dive deeper into video.They claim video
and A.I. is the future of truly analyzing
athletic performance, biomechanics and
form.The A.I analyzes the video and stores
it in a database to find commonalities in
specific movements. They can then
provide users and other interested parties
insight into how to train and perform best.
“Doing” hopes to gain access to place
specialized A.I. cameras in courts, fields,
and parks in order to track athlete
movements and actions.These cameras
will run 24/7, constantly recording and
constantly storing and analyzing data as it
comes.They are considering adding
sensors that can be placed on athletes to
better track movements for the
application. Doing will reward users with
coins for using the app.
So what’s in it for 3rd parties? Who’s
interested in this type of data? The
“Doing” team is currently seeking out
universities and sports institutions to use
their proprietary technology. Institutions
that emphasize sports are always on the
lookout for better training and
information that can improve their
athletes’ performances. The competitive
advantage this data can give universities
is very attractive.
If only for injury prevention, the
information is extremely valuable.Taking
it to another level,“Doing” would
someday love to work with hospitals.
Perhaps with enough data accumulation,
there could be statistically significant
data that explains a pattern related to
injuries, symptoms, diseases, etc. All in
all, there are several parties that can find
value in the data “Doing” collects and
analyzes.
As for their roadmap, in March of this
year they seek to have an app on IOS and
Android available. Early versions will
focus on tracking data and movements
for walking and running activities. Come
June or July,“Doing” will migrate to the
Elastos blockchain and run their own
sidechain.They hope to seek funding
from the Cyber Republic and they are
getting their ducks in row to make it
happen.The team has the UI and
prototype fully completed. Currently,
they're working on their database and
network in order to get the dApp fully up
//16

and running.
The “Doing” team consists of five people
from A.I., CS, and blockchain backgrounds,
two of which are senior developers. Most of
the team met in college and they have
developed many other applications in the
past.They fittingly came up with the
original idea at the gym. They currently
have connections to a top University in
China called Tsinghua University. This
university specializes in A.I., specifically A.I.
cameras.The "Doing " group hopes this
contact will help shape their A.I. protocols
as well and implement specialized camera
technology within the dApp itself.
“Doing” is aiming to become a dApp that
rewards athletes and people for playing
sports.Third party institutions can then pay
for the reliable data and use it for research
and development. In a world that's driven by
big data and analytics,“Doing” hopes to
contribute in the sports/fitness arena and
properly compensate and educate athletes
as well as give a clearer assessment of how
certain movements and actions affect
player performance and health.

International Community
Activities
By Joel
Summary
The first month of 2019 has come to a close,
and we’ve continued to see an influx of
progress in Elastos development.The Chinese
community is celebrating Chinese New Year,
the Year of the Pig. The pig represents luck,
good fortune, and prosperity, symbolizing a
peace-loving and sociable person with a large
sense of humour and an understanding
personality.To celebrate the CNY, the
community is organising a video clip contest
till 10 Feb .
https://weibo.com/1852597862/HeDXhd9Of
Giving out red envelopes is traditional during
CNY, with blessing and hope passed from the
giver to the receiver. With the rise of digital money, such giving has been widely adopted in
daily mobile apps such as WeChat, and it is no longer used only during CNY.This year, there is
one more way of giving out our blessings, with ELA.
There is a new red envelope function in the Elephant Wallet. Members in the Chinese
community can try out the function immediately, and with the red envelope links, the ELA can
be distributed in any chat apps like WeChat and Telegram.
A much-loved activity in China is a board game called Dou dizhu (Fight the Landlord). It is a
