REQ

1. Project introduction

Request is an open network for transaction requests. It allows anyone to create, store and access invoices and receipts in a universal, decentralized network.

Request gateways reduce the complexity of interacting with the blockchain. No need to manage different contracts, specific libraries, and gas. Gateways enable blockchain interactions as easily as any other SaaS, through HTTP APIs.Request ensures privacy and GDPR compliance. Data regarding requests is encrypted and safeguarded using elliptic-curve encryption. And while all data is saved in a public blockchain to prevent interference, it can only be read by the parties involved in the request.With every new version, Request can handle more and more transactions per second. That's because the bulk of the data is saved on IPFS instead of on the blockchain. What is stored on the blockchain is the hash (the proof of the data). That way, it can't be modified or manipulated. Transactions are batched and added to IPFS in bulk, which enables high throughput. And it leads to low costs as well.

Request is built on top of Ethereum, safeguarding security. It ensures that data can't be changed or deleted by governments, third parties, or even by team. In addition, data exists on each node, so it can't just disappear. It's safe from the passage of time and tampering alike.The Request utility token, referred to as REQ, ensures the performance and stability of the Request network.
