ABSTRACT
Cryptocurrency is changing the world economy. What was previously impossible in
most of the world – transferring money globally – is now not only possible, but it’s
safe, cheap and easy. It also acts as a store of value, like gold, but for the digital
age. Asset ownership is stored in a secure, decentralized database called the
blockchain. This decentralization prevents any one government or company from
controlling it. At the time of this writing, the total market cap of cryptocurrencies is
$718 billion, up from $15 billion a year ago. The potential of the blockchain is huge
and world changing but the lack of scalability, lack true decentralization, and
excessive energy use are issues that plague existing cryptocurrencies.

2.1. Introduction. Hyper connect the World The MASS Project began with
the goal to enrich our everyday lives through “connection”. The history of mankind’s
technological innovation is related to our history of connection. The creation of postal
service made it possible to connect each other's thoughts without having to
physically meet. Telephones made it possible to connect each other in real time
regardless of the distance, and wireless communication added freedom of mobility.
And with the advent of the Internet, real-time connection to everything, not just
people, has become possible anywhere in the world. Despite these breakthrough
innovations, today’s level of connection is still not perfect. With the MASS Project,
we are now moving closer to a more seamless connection.
