- | * Create electronic “cash” with an emphasis on anonymity and independence from conventional financial institutions | + | * A Peer-to-Peer (P2P) blockchain-based coin (QORT) that is created from block 0 with 0 coins, and minted from there by users of the network. |
- | * Create a method for peer-to-peer transactions to take place on-chain securely | + | * Distributed ledger with both transparency and privacy. (more detail below) |
- | * Create a way for people to be rewarded for supporting the network | + | * Removal of all centralized components from the creation, distribution, |
- | * Make all of this possible with basic computer systems | + | |

The beauty of blockchain technology and Qortal is that the chain cannot be stopped and the project will carry on without hardware dependency of any single person! Qortal is intended to outlive the Founders and become an unstoppable infrastructure for the world to adopt. Qortal will provide an opportunity for anyone in the world to get involved and be rewarded for their contribution to the network regardless of technical expertise, geographical location, or financial status. In theory, virtually any type of ethical online service and operating system could utilize the backbone infrastructure of Qortal. | The beauty of blockchain technology and Qortal is that the chain cannot be stopped and the project will carry on without hardware dependency of any single person!

- | With a vision of a platform designed to outlive us all, the current DevTeam Admins are merely that - the current DevTeam Admins. More qualified developers will be elected to join the Dev Team over time, and the Voting System will delegate a fair direction for the future team to move towards. Ultimately, Qortal aims to achieve a true-direct democratic system that is guided by the community members, implemented by the Dev Team, and not regulated by any outside government or third-party. Finally, a system that can be utilized worldwide that is built by the people, for the people! | + | With a vision of a platform designed to outlive us all, the current DevTeam Admins are merely that - the current DevTeam Admins.

This is infrastructure we control as a collective worldwide. Peer-to-peer solutions with decentralized blockchain technology to rebuild the Internet, provide the crypto space with a platform to build on, and even internet service solutions - with mesh networking and satellite bridging. | This is infrastructure we control as a collective worldwide.
