Designing Account and Token Architectures for Decentralized Social Economies on a Blockchain-based Chat Application
- Traditional user management on the Internet has historically required individuals to give up control over their identities. In contrast, decentralized solutions promise to empower users and foster decentralized interactions. Over the last few years, the development of decentralized accounts and tokens has significantly increased, aiming at broader user adoption and shared social economies. This thesis delves into smart contract standards and social infrastructure for Ethereum-based blockchains to enable identity-based data exchange between abstracted blockchain accounts. In this regard, the standardization landscapes of account and social token developments were analyzed in-depth to form guidelines that allow users to retain complete control over their data and grant access selectively. Based on the evaluations, a pioneering Solidity standard is presented, natively integrating consensual restrictive on-chain assets for abstracted blockchain accounts. Further, the architecture of a decentralized messaging service has been defined to outline how new token and account concepts can be intertwined with efficient and minimal data-sharing principles to ensure security and privacy, while merging traditional server environments with global ledgers.
