The Hadron vision extends to many different realms which are all dependent on access to a single source of truth. Data is only as valuable as it is valid. Ensuring what is true is precisely what Distributed Ledger Technology enables. Hadron is a protocol that achieves consensus on the state of matters in a network. By having a cryptographically secure source of unified truth, we envisage a grand technological Cambrian explosion of innovation to arise from it.

Enabling the true Internet-of-Things through the Machine Economy.

The number of connected devices that will be in use is estimated to reach 75 billion by 2025. From tiny sensors on roads and bridges to wearable electronics, mobile phones, and more, every day the world is becoming more and more interconnected. The amount of data being produced and consumed by all these devices is already astronomical. By the end of 2016, the run rate of IP traffic was 1.2 zettabytes per year - or enough data to fill over 9 billion of the highest storage capacity iPhone's available at the time. Over the next five years, global IP traffic is expected to increase five-fold whereby 2021, monthly IP traffic will reach a staggering 31 Gigabytes per capita.

Sharing Economy

The overwhelming majority of the stuff we own spends the vast majority of its life idle in a cabinet or garage. In the era of Internet-of-Things, anything that has a chip in it can be leased to others that have a use for it when you don't. This applies equally to a person's possessions such as cars and appliances, and industrial titans with massive shopfloors. Enabled by Hadron's zero fee transactions, its shared consumption can be compensated for in real-time for the exact usage.
