Any type of data across any type of blockchain

GDS is a network protocol that allows arbitrary data—not just tokens—to be transferred across blockchains.

GDS is a peer-to-peer payment protocol that uses advanced billing models to support peer-to-peer transactions. The vision is to bring the convenience of virtual payment cards on the blockchain for general public. GDS Coin is a virtual payment gateway that enables users to change their fiat into cryptocurrencies and use it to purchase goods and services while retrieving benefits of trading and price appreciation.

An Open-Source Protocol Built For Everyone

GDS is an open-source, decentralised, public blockchain with smart contract functionality project founded by the GDS Foundation and are free from control and interference by any single authority.

Governance Roles

Council Members

Elected to represent passive stakeholders in two primary governance roles: proposing referenda and vetoing dangerous or malicious referenda.

Groundbreaking Technology

GDS is solving many of the problems that have held back blockchain technology so far — all in one place, without compromising.

Multiple Decentralized Applications (dApps)

GreatDealCoin’s decentralized applications (dApp) built on the Ethereum platform are the type of distributed open source software applications that runs on a peer-to-peer (P2P) blockchain network rather than on a single computer. The use of blockchain enables a dApp to process data through distributed networks and to execute transactions.

The decentralized nature of dApps means that once a developer has released a dApp's codebase, others can build on top of it. While a traditional application is supported by centralized servers and database, a dApp is supported by a smart contract that is stored on a blockchain.

GDS is providing latest and trending multiple decentralised applications (dApps) including Exchange, Finance, Gaming, Wallet, Fantasy, Social Media, etc. to its users with highest quality and services to make maximum benefits from it.

A better security model

In both Proof-of-Work (PoW) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) systems, blockchains compete with each other over resources to secure their networks, and blockchains are easily attacked until they develop a significant community to support their network.

GDS takes a different approach by letting blockchains pool their security, which means that the blockchains' security is aggregated and applied to all.

By connecting to GreatDealCoin, users can secure themselves from day one.

XCM: a secure cross-chain communication standard

For blockchains to work together and form the basis of Web3, they need a common language for communication. GDS sets the standard with XCM, a cross-consensus communication format and programming language that allows blockchains of different designs to securely exchange arbitrary data, code, and value. In this way, a new wave of rich cross-chain applications and services can be built that tap into the features and benefits of different chains.

Next-generation proof of stake

GDS pioneers an advanced, highly-efficient form of proof of stake called Nominated Proof of Stake (NPoS). NPoS enables greater decentralization and fair representation by evenly distributing stake, allowing all GDS holders to participate in staking, and balancing the interests of smaller and larger GDS holders.

GDS holders can help secure the network and collect GDS rewards by staking as a nominator or a validator. With GreatDealCoin’s native nomination pools, anyone with as little as 1 GDS can stake and collect rewards.

A green, energy-efficient protocol

It’s hard to get behind blockchain as the next technological revolution when it wastes so much energy. GDS is designed to power the web’s next big wave of innovation, without the high energy consumption of conventional proof-of-work blockchains.

GreatDealCoin’s Nominated Proof-of-stake (NPoS) model uses a small fraction of the energy consumed by conventional blockchains, and has the lowest carbon footprint among proof-of-stake protocols analyzed in recent research.

Transparent on-chain governance

GDS is based on the principles of transparency, security, and a modern approach and it uses a sophisticated governance mechanism that is designed to establish a transparent, accountable and binding process for resolving disputes and upgrading the network.

GDS tokens are used to participate in governance decisions, including tabling proposals, voting, and bonding.

Parachains are free to design their own governance mechanisms, allowing for maximum freedom without affecting other parachains.

GDS Gaming

GDS gaming provides players with a way to earn money. This is referred to as a play-toearn model, where players can earn money by playing games on gaming platform.

GDS offers a simple experience like connect a wallet place a bet on some random number get rewarded if your guess was correct, without any kind of authentication like login via email. We are doing our best to ensure the most captivating fantasy gaming experience for our players at our gaming platform. Thus, we make sure to cover all existing gaming genres to satisfy all types of Bitcoin gaming enthusiasts

On-chain treasury for decentralized project funding

GreatDealCoin’s governance system also features an on-chain treasury that the community can use to fund projects that benefit the network. Any GDS holder can submit project funding and bounty proposals, and can nominate community members for tips based on work completed.

With tens of millions of GDS available for spending, the treasury represents a powerful resource for fueling Web3 innovation.

Roadmap

The launch of GDS v1 began in early 2017 and since then it’s continuously growing day by day to reach new heights. Several post–launch developments and optimizations are expected for 2023 and beyond.
