TOP Network describes itself as a blockchain ecosystem that features a 4th-generation public blockchain.
The team claims that TOP Chain is a 'full-state sharding public chain and a high-performance platform for large-scale DApps'. Powered by a three-layered ledger architecture consisting of a main chain, service chains, and off-chain ledgers, the team claims that TOP Chain is capable of handling real-world business applications. TOP Chain applies technologies such as a two-layer lattice DAG, two-layer sharding, and a parallel pBFT-PoS consensus mechanism, which would reportedly enable a single chain to process 100,000 transactions per second.
TOP Chain aims to offer a reliable platform for services that demand high-frequency transactions such as communication, gaming, social media, big data, artificial intelligence, and IoT. The long-term mission of TOP Network is to build a public blockchain infrastructure for all DApps. TOP Network has developed HiWallet, a cryptocurrency wallet, and is developing a series of blockchain games along with several DApps.
The team claims that 100M+ global users will be progressively migrated from the pre-existing communications Apps—Dingtone, CoverMe, and SkyVPN—to TOP Chain.
TOP’s ecosystem, there are numerous components and sub-networks which all must communicate and transfer data between each other. If the P2P network through which these various parts interact is weak, the entire platform is affected. Popular P2P network implementations have been optimized for certain use cases over the years but are not quite adequate for such an ecosystem of many distinct yet connected networks requiring near real-time latency. This is particularly true for a sharded system where there is constant interaction between shards. In fact, the bandwidth used for cross-shard communication can quickly become a bottleneck.
