Framework

The digiverse is comprised of three layers:

1. Consensus layer: Track land ownership and its content.

2. Content distribution layer: Download assets using a decentralized distribution system.

3. Real-time layer: Enable users’ world viewers to connect to each other

Land ownership is established at the consensus layer, where land content is referenced through a hash of the file’s content. From this reference the content can be downloaded from BitTorrent or IPFS. The downloaded file contains a description of objects, textures, sounds, and other elements needed to render the scene. It also contains the URL of a rendezvous server to coordinate connections between P2P users that are exploring the file simultaneously.

Additionally, two other systems are key for DigiVerse’s economy to develop:

1. Payment Channel Infrastructure for fast payments with low fees.

2. Identity System that allows users to establish ownership over original creations
