[HILO OFICIAL] High Perfomance Blockchain, la EOS de China. {v. 1}

After listening to the design concept of HPB, China's largest financial data company
UnionPay has joined as a partner with HPB, with the common goal of technological
practice and exploration of financial big data and high-performance blockchain platform.
UnionPay Wisdom currently handles 80% of China's banking transaction data, with an
annual turnover of 80 trillion yuan. HPB will join hands with China UnionPay to serve all
industry partners, including large banks, insurance, retail enterprises, fintech companies
and so on.

Open Source
This will attract blockchain developers to integrate and develop their Dapps in their platform

Support Millions of Daily Users
Through HPB technology, they will break through millions of transaction per second that can accomodate millions of daily users. with this said it'll be on par on how Google, Uber etc, accomodate theri millions of actibe users. HPB could be used for similar enterprise applications.

Low Latency
It is expected that HPB can confirm transcations within seconds

High Throughput, High Concurrency
TOE Technology
It aims to accomplish some or all packet processing
tasks through a dedicated processor on a dedicated network card. In other words, by using
a specialized network card with a TEO chip, it uses four layers of TCP processing to transfer
from the host processor to the hardware accelerator. The end result is accelerated
response, enhanced network concurrency, reduced server complexity, and improved node
processing performance.

Acceleration Engine
HPB is designed around blockchain-dedicated hardware acceleration units – including hardware and firmware acceleration – as well as software engine matching – including system driver and software interface API hardware acceleration. In more straightforward terms, that means high performance and high speed concurrent computation through parallel processing of CPU, GPU, FPGA, and serial ASIC chips.

DPOS Consensus Algorithm
Delegated Proof-of-Stake Consensus; the whole network of token holders is able to vote through the
system to appoint new block producers. Anyone can participate in block production once
elected.

BLock Production Every 3 Seconds
HPB expects to produce a new block every 3 seconds. At any point, only one producer is authorized to produce blocks. If a block production falls at any time, then that block will be skipped.

Transaction Confirmation
The block chains maintained by the DPOS algorithm are 100% online. That is to say,
after an average of 1.5 seconds, a transaction will be written into the blockchain and all
outgoing nodes will be aware of the transaction. This means that in only 1.5 seconds, a
transaction can be identified as 99.9% confirmed received onto the blockchain

Plug-and-Play Consensus Algorithm Module
The DPOS consensus algorithm can widely support public chains, alliance chains
and private chains. If there is a specific business use scenario or specific business needs,
HPB plug-and-play consensus algorithm module can flexibly support integrated handover of
different consensus algorithms, as well as support a common interface for POS-type
consensus algorithms.

Identity and Authorization Management
The HPB framework service layer design supports authentication
and authorization of multi-level participants and related resources.
HPB allows using only a 3 to 32 character long account name to refer to accounts,
which is chosen by the account creator. All accounts must be filled with a minimum
account balance at the time of creation in order to cover the costs of storing account data.

Role-Based Privilege Management
Privilege management, in the world of blockchain technology, helps define whether or not a particular message is properly authorized. The simplest way in which this is done is to check if the transaction has the required signature. HPB, on the other hand, provides a “declarative rights management system that allows for high-level account granularity and control for anyone at any time.”

Status Channel
HPB should not deploy smart contracts onto the blockchain, but instead uses
intelligent contracts on status channels to improve the speed, reliability and scalability of
the blockchain. According to current practical applications, the blockchain system cannot
completely replace existing systems, and more or less requires the introduction of
traditional centralized modules. The introduction of status channels is the most meaningful
attempt to seal the blockchain system architecture.

Blockchain API's
HPB uses JSON-RPC and RESTful API to support various
data applications and development languages. It supports multi-blockchain, data query,
transaction submission and other blockchain operations. In different business scenarios,
the interactive access interface can be further integrated with the privilege control system.

Application SDKs
Application SDKs are comprehensive services for development in different
programming languages of comprehensive service function interfaces for blockchain
operations and functions, packet-based encryption, data signatures, transaction generation,
etc. It can be extended to integration of specific business logic functions, and seamlessly
support expansion and integration into various business system languages. It will support
Java, JavaScript, .NET, Ruby, Python and other SDK languages.

Smart Contract System
HPB has a complete smart contract system. Each smart contract acts as a yoke on the asset management lifecycle. Submission, deployment, usage, and cancellation are completely controlled and managed by the smart contract. There’s also a smart contract auditing system that involves a combination of automatic auditing tools and professional auditors. To make smart contract deployment as easy as possible, HPB has a smart contract template that can be used for general business applications.

General Virtual Machine Mechanism
The goal of HPB is to support a variety of virtual machines, and, over time, add new
virtual machines as needed.
HPB smart contract virtual machines are lightweight and support multi-level
contracts. They combine the underlying virtual machine with high-level program language
analysis and transformation, and flexibly support the basic applications of the virtual
machine. Through customized API operation, the external interface of the virtual machine
can be realized, and can flexibly interact with ledger data and external data. This
mechanism achieves high performance of native code execution when running the smart
contract. A GVM supporting different blockchains is also implemented.

Ethernet Virtual Machine and Ant Virtual Machine.
These VM's can integrate with HPB with minimal adaptation to run though HPB ecosystem of secure and high throughput platform

Banyan Network — A huge addition to the Chinese Megatron Blockchain…using HPB to scale to Unionpay Levels?
BBN has great potential. However, it’s partnership with HPB may be what turns heads first.

Koozi, wtf is Banyan Network?

Big Banyan Network’s (BBN) goal is to “focus on blockchain-enabled trusted data connection, third-party data integration and governance, data applications and open market development, building a positive interactive value-linked network of data benefits by establishing standards, providing channels, and issuing tokens.” (page 1)

See full whitepaper here: http://www.banyanbbt.org/assets/down...nglish_v91.pdf

Sounds dope you crazy bear, but wtf does that mean for me?

Let’s connect the dots!

HPB is an angel investor to BBN, and so is Loopring.
HPB CEO and Loopring CEO are both on BBN Advisory Team.
NEO is an angel investor to HPB and Loopring.
Kelvin Long, Unionpay Smart Founder, is a member of BBN core team and head of Chinese operations. He is on HPB Advisory Team.
2 other members of BBN core team worked for Unionpay. (sounds like HPB?)
Long Kai, Executive President of Unionpay Smart, is on HPB Advisory Team.
HPB is also partnered with CPC(backed by VEN), BTO, and NAS. CPC, BTO, and BBN are all listed on Bibox. HPB has a strategic cooperation with Bibox to help them scale, similar to what EOS is doing with Bitfinex.
Shi Qingwei is on CPC R&D team. He is also an on Advisor team of BBN.
NEO needs HPB for NeoVM
There are massive names in Chinese finance, big data, AI and more on both Advisor Teams of HPB and BBN. So many big names that it’s not worth listing. DYOR. Here’s a useful link to review to start: https://bitshouts.com/hpb-analysis/
Jesus Koozi, that’s a ton of connections! where are you going with this?

Here are Koozi’s theories:

This further suggests that Unionpay is partnered with HPB. An admin on HPB telegram confirmed that this partnership is finalizing and that details could not be discussed due to the involvement of a “state-owned company”. (see https://medium.com/@koozibear/high-p...s-3dd4ad8de321)
I have read several times that HPB is actually supposed to be “core chain” or “heart” in Chinese (need to confirm this with Chinese HPB Telegram). If this is true, why core chain? Why is HPB partnering with so many big name Chinese coins? My guess is that HPB and these other killer coins are a part of a massive Chinese blockchain project, with HPB being the platform that allows them to scale to levels that are needed for the largest Chinese companies, AND the Chinese government as well. At first I was thinking that HPB was created to provide a specific solution for Unionpay, but this is beginning to look like something much larger. HPB hardware is supposed to be open source, and they confirmed at a Stanford meeting that they would initially distribute hardware to community members (see link above). If this is true, then is HPB going to be providing their hardware to the teams that they are partnering with as well?
If scalability becomes a serious issue like HPB predicts, how many individuals, companies, and governments are going to be relying on HPB hardware?

Mentions of HPB in BBN Whitepaper:

“Based on theories such as “three laws of data value” and mechanisms such as “tripartite model”, the data value network covers data collection, cleansing, integration, and applications of complete business chains, to aggressively adopt the latest technical solutions such as high performance blockchain (HPB), decentralized token exchange protocol (LOOPRING), and box computing (BC), to ensure the operation and gradual expansion of the entire network.” (page 2)

“The underlying blockchain of DVN is based on Ethereum and is operated in public, because it is the most mature platform that supports smart contracts, and the community is active and the foundation works well. We Banyan Network 20 do not rule out the use of AntShares, HPB, and other independently developed technologies in the future.” (pages 19–20)
