GEO Protocol is a decentralized p2p protocol for values transfer that uses state channels and trust lines technologies and implements its own routing algorithm as well.
This is a protocol that is able to build a global decentralized P2P network which connects different ledgers.
The protocol uses off-chain solutions that provide scalability of the network.
Our purpose is to create a universal ecosystem for value transfer networks.

Update 18.10.2018 / We uploaded C++implementation of Lamport Signature on top of BLAKE2b. Now you can take a look or download it by clicking here. We use such cryptographic sollution in GEO Network client and observers chain backend.
Update 15.10.2018 / We published specification that describes the trust lines algorithm which called Twin State. Proposed solution provides ability for 2 participants to share common state of a trust line / channel and syncronise it with quantum resistant proof of operations performed.
Update 12.10.2018 / We published specification for payment algorithm which called Twin Spark. Proposed solution provides ability for up to several hundreds participants to achieve 100% consensus via communications through potentially unstable and untrusted environment, under active fraud attempts of malicious participants.
Current section contain steps of further GEO Protocol develpment. Sorted by priority

- Tokenomy (economic model, tokens circulation);
- Observers (functions, connections, edge cases everview etc);
- Trust lines (finalization);
- Ping/Pong (the mechanism of notifications within the Protocol);
- Routing (algorithm description, calculations);
