Unbreakable Contracts
Halo is the only program in the world to offer revolutionary unbreakable contracts! This allows you to agree on literally anything and know the other party will honor their word. By using double deposit, fraud is now impossible. No escrow is needed, no middlemen or websites holding on to funds. Read the whitepaper and documentation for more details.
Decentralized Markets
Halo also features the worlds first truly decentralized marketplace! Its totally FREE. No fees, no arbiters, no chargebacksrs. Trade internationally with anyone. Its like a combination of E-Bay, Alibaba and Freelancer! There are no servers and no bloat. There is no limit to what you can do here. An entire economy exists inside the software. Become part of it!
Multi-Currency
The software can switch from Bitcoin to Blackcoin with the click of a button. USD integration allows you to pay in exact dollar amounts by synchronizing with exchange rates. The same keys are used for both coins! Very user friendly making crypto fun and easy to use. Learn cryptocurrency even if you are new to it.
Cash for Coins, Anywhere in The World
Finally anyone in the world has access to cryptocurrency. Halo allows for unbreakable wires and western unions! There are unlimited funding options. No more meeting in person, no more uncertainty, no more websites. Everything is handled peer to peer. Theft is impossible thanks to the contracts. No escrow is needed, the funds are always safe in your hands.
Hire an Employee & Find a job
The employee must perform, and the employer must pay. Perhaps the most powerful use case of all is the ability to hire knowing the work must get done. Now people must be honest about credentials and not pad their hours! Absolutely perfect for outsourcing! As an employee you can be confident you will get paid. Time extensions allow for long term contracts.
Multisignature, Advanced security
Every account uses two keys! Your account is unhackable especially if two locations are used (2FA). Hide your keys inside of images making them impossible to find. Sign transactions from two locations at once. All of this is automated in the software. Give each key a different password! Security on a whole new level.
Joint Accounts for partners
Completely automated joint account creation allows you to form any type of partnership you wish. Share an account with a partner, spouse or friend. Approve all payments together. Advanced sending options for paying simultaneous addresses.
Barter and Trade Anything
Trade gold for silver, corn for rice, sheep for cattle. On the bridge of the unbreakable contracts, delivery times can be on different dates because contracts must be honored. Long term agreements can form a bridge. Create a community farm co-op! Return the world to simpler times and save money doing it.
Decentralized Email, Encrypted Email
Halo has two options for messaging and both are very effective and private. We use Bitmessage to give all peers a way to communicate without a server. You may also use your Gmail, Hotmail or email account to receive orders from the market and negotiate. Everything is automated for you.
Pay to Email
Sending cryptocurrency should be easy! So we have given people the option to pay through email. Send to anyone even if they don’t have crypto currency! A powerful feature for adoption. Be part of the tipping craze and send your friends a small tip to get them excited about crypto. You can even password protect your payment. No server holds the funds, its completely secure.
Moderation Layer
The main markets can be kept mostly clean thanks to our peer to peer moderation system. Although it is decentralized, we want the masses to love and be part of the movement so we have created an identity system with free moderation keys and reputation systems.
Upcoming Features
Cold Staking
One of the main gripes with having to stake your coins is that you have to unlock your wallet in order to do so. Using a variation on Two Step Send, you can synchronize computers from separate locations. This makes your wallet able to stake — while not always remaining online. Allowing for a more secure option to staking — especially for a large amount of coins.
Templates
These amazing Templates allow full automation of all of the services you can provide in Halo. Barter, Auctions, Reverse Auctions, Cash for Coins, Find a job, Hire someone, Python Contracts and Custom Contracts! Anyone even if not familiar with coins, will be able to use and understand the system.
NightTrader
The worlds first fully decentralized exchange thanks to the ability to microtrade under the hood of a custom contract. No middle coins, no websites, nobody touches your funds except for you. Centralized exchanges are notoriously known for taking users funds totally disrupting the trust people place in this wonderful technology. Now it's made possible with a custom contract between any two coins using the deposits as insurance.
Python Contracts
Halo does smart contracts of any kind. However to enhance the automation of these contracts we can allow for peers to agree on and execute Python code. Therefore, there is absolutely no limit to how complex you can make a smart contract! Unlike Etherium, this won’t bloat the blockchain and could scale indefinitely. Also, there is no need for protocol changes with new contract ideas! Perfect for derivatives and checking spot prices online.
No more volatility
An upcoming revolutionary change is coming to crypto-currency in the Halo platform. We are working on a currency named BitBay that has the ability to inflate and deflate. Interest rates are controlled by votes and algorithms and thus, users can grow their own coin in a stable fashion ending the era of the infamous “pump and dump”. You will be able to sell reserve coins similar to bonds, perform advanced contracts and be your own bank.
Notary
We feature a basic notary system with notifications in some Halo clients and the ability to prove ownership of any document. This is a very powerful tool in real world situations that still need valid paper contracts. In addition to your smart contract, this service can be immensely powerful.
