PATH - low-cost coverage of the global + full ISP + full-time monitoring node and performance analysis network

Since April 2018, with the explosion of blockchain entrepreneurship projects, many ordinary people gradually do not begin to understand the blockchain. Everyone has different views on the blockchain. The public's general recognition of the advantages of the blockchain – credibility, incentives and irreparable modification. However, there are also many outsiders who have questioned how the blockchain will land.

In fact, it is not that the blockchain can't land, and the people inside the circle are clear. At this stage, blockchains are used in payment, notarization, clearing, games, Internet of Things, content creation, and logistics traceability. However, in addition to the bitcoin used for payment, in the blockchain project at the current stage, there is no star project that can be familiar to outsiders.

The absence of a star project means that outsiders cannot understand. But this is not because the blockchain is not enough, but because most of the current developers are concentrated in the underlying construction of the blockchain, such as the underlying public chain, payment protocols, storage protocols, cross-chain protocols, and many other foundations. facility. Just like ordinary people know Alibaba and Tencent, but there are very few known underlying Internet protocols.

In other words, if you want companies and individuals outside the chain to know the blockchain and recognize the value of the blockchain, you must come up with something other than the agreement. But unfortunately, the current top 20 blockchain projects in the market value, 17 are the underlying public chain and agreement. And only two of the three application classes, BNB and USDT, are born for the service currency, one is the exchange's dividend token, and the other is the dollar token used in the currency transaction. . Even the most current blockchain application, the content platform Steem, the most discussed content on its platform is about virtual currency.

We can see that most of the blockchain projects are now an infinite loop, and users are users of the currency circle. If a blockchain project is not for outsiders, how can it be understood by the public outside the circle? If users are speculating in the currency circle, how can they get rid of the "zero-sum game" dilemma?

So, is there a project that is now able to face both the circle and the blockchain? The answer is yes, but it may be less than 1%.

The Path Network of a recent star project is such a project. What is the Path Network doing? Path is a node monitoring platform that is primarily oriented to the enterprise. Simply put, the Path platform provides a network monitoring service. And network monitoring services are needed for every website and app in the world.

Due to different network operators in different countries, different regulatory policies, different infrastructures, etc., some websites (Sites) often appear, and can be accessed normally in Area A, with high delay in Area B and completely inaccessible in Area C. But the operators of the website are actually unable to know about this in the first place. Users who are unable to access the area have no ability or motivation to provide diagnostic reports. This often results in a website that has been in an area for N days and is not maintained.

Especially for large enterprises and big websites, it is more important to know the access situation of their websites at any time. After all, the momentum of globalization is getting more and more fierce. It is also a huge loss for the enterprises to miss the users of a certain country. So companies are willing to pay for this.

At this time, the website operator needs to use the node monitoring service. Traditional node monitoring services are provided by centralized companies. In addition to the high cost, the service is not in place. Several well-known node monitoring service providers, many of which have only dozens of nodes in the world. In other words, if you are an operation and maintenance team of a small and medium-sized website, and spent thousands of dollars to purchase the services of the whole year, you can only get more than a dozen feedbacks from more than a dozen mainstream countries. This is not enough, especially for companies that want to dig deep into a certain area (such as Southeast Asia, the Nordic countries, or the sub-Saharan Africa). It is even more difficult. There is no traditional node monitoring service. Businesses can provide such subtle services.

Of course, this is not what traditional node monitors don't want, but not. Deploying a monitoring node globally by a centralized company is a difficult and extremely difficult task that requires a lot of time and effort. Not to mention the provision of various network operators, node monitoring information for each region.

But after combining the blockchain, these problems will be solved. The solution given by Path Network is this: Since it is very difficult to deploy nodes passively, it is better to use incentives to make people around the world take the initiative to become nodes.

On the Path platform, anyone in the world can take the initiative to become a node. Path behavior is called "mining." Ordinary mobile phones and PCs can use a small amount of idle bandwidth to help the website test, that is, "mining."

The nodes established by the incentive program can well fulfill the needs of the website operators. Website operation and maintenance personnel can publish network monitoring services for a specific area, specific time and specific operators, and the cost performance is much higher than before. In other words, if a Chinese company only wants to receive network data from 11 countries in Southeast Asia, it can choose to release only node feedback from 11 countries in Southeast Asia to achieve the goal of saving money. At the same time, if a giant multinational company wants all the feedback from more than 200 countries and regions around the world, as well as thousands of network operators, it can also choose to receive all the feedback. The node requirements are completely specific, and they must be large or small, small or small.

The most interesting thing is that even if the operators of these websites don't understand the blockchain, it doesn't matter, which is different from the traditional projects. Path is not only for the users of the currency, but for all websites and operators of all APPs around the world. Therefore, PATH is a project that goes out of the loop and has real needs.

In addition to node monitoring, the Path platform also provides powerful DDOS attack monitoring, BGP hijacking monitoring, CDN performance testing, and systemic interactive testing. Since the number of nodes that PATH will have is tens or even hundreds of times on traditional node monitoring, DDOS attack monitoring and BGP hijacking monitoring will be several times or even tens of times better than traditional node monitoring service optimization.

In addition to serving traditional Internet companies, can PATH also rubbing against the currency? The answer is also affirmative. Path's node monitoring service can help BGP hijacking of PoW pools such as Bitcoin, which can help exchanges test global speed and prevent DDoS attacks, so that major websites and communication networks and networks can flexibly resist hacker attacks.

Path's CTO is also very reliable. Marshal Webb itself was a genius hacker who discovered vulnerabilities in the US Pentagon and Microsoft Win 10 systems. And Marshal has also established a well-known network security company BackConnect, anti-hacking skills are absolutely first-class. Regarding the information of the founder and CTO of the team, you can make your own Google~

The market pain point + blockchain incentives + super technical strength + at the same time facing the circle and the circle, this is probably the root cause of the giants such as Bit China and coin capital are optimistic and invest in Path Network.

Of course, ordinary people now have the opportunity to participate. Path is organizing an airdrop. The strength of the airdrop is very large, and the Path token reward worth 20 US dollars (about 126 RMB) can be obtained through the KYC account. Considering the super technology of PATH, the possibility of these Tokens being N times more in the future is very high.
