1. Why does MATRIX exist?

The development of blockchain is held back by three obstacles:

a) Slowness: Take Bitcoin for example. An average transaction takes over an hour to verify. This is a hurdle to the promotion of blockchain;

b) Security issues: Whether it’s the DAO attack on Ethereum or the many security issues plaguing DeFi projects, tens of thousands of dollars could be at stake. If security should be an issue for crypto assets, then there is no point investing in them.

c) Impact on environment: Take Bitcoin for example. PoW of Bitcoin is nothing but meaningless hash computing that creates no real value for society. According to statistics, 70% of the world’s computing power is consumed to mine cryptos, which is a million times Google’s computing power. Bitcoin mining also consumed more power each year than 260 countries of the world, creating a huge waste.

2. What is the vision and mission of Matrix?

Vision: To build a decentralized auto-functioning AI economy

Mission:

Stage One: Highly efficient blockchain platform

Stage Two: Decentralized cloud computing platform

Stage Three: Digital asset authentication platform/Digital asset trading platform

3. What are main features of MATRIX?

Thanks to fast-growing AI technologies, MATRIX offers unique features as follows.

SAFER: Making blockchains more robust under malicious attacks.

FASTER: Enabling faster transactions and higher processing throughput.

MORE FLEXIBLE: Seamless integration of public and private chains with the capability of adaptive optimization.

4. How is MATRIX different?

• Matrix Mainnet has a top speed of TPS 12499 beating BTC and ETH by a wide margin.

• Profit from computing: Matrix’s core PoW algorithms include AI algorithms, which means the PoW mining process creates value for society. Secondly, Matrix adopts an election-based PoW mechanism so that the unelected miners of each mining cycle may lease out their spare computing power for profit.

• Distributed storage: Ahead of its competitors, Matrix has integrated IPFS storage protocol into its network. Besides decentralized information exchange and bookkeeping, decentralized storage is also crucial for developing DApps. Matrix is committed to protecting user privacy, giving developing DApps on Matrix a natural advantage.

• Custom functions: Transfer to multiple accounts, pay other people’s bills, and many more custom functions to come.

5. What exactly does MATRIX do?

Matrix is an AI-empowered high-performance blockchain. In Stage One, we use AI to solve problems plaguing traditional blockchain technologies. When the performance and usability of blockchain are brought to the next level, we can build a complete and expandable ecosystem of high-performance AI blockchain.

Matrix is building a multifunctional AI service platform featuring computing power leasing, authentication and transaction of data, algorithm models and digital assets, AI services, et

6. What is Matrix's consensus mechanism?

MATRIX adopts a unique hybrid PoS + PoW consensus mechanism. The PoW is performed in a significantly smaller network of delegates, which are selected with a random distributed voting algorithm. The probability of a node to be selected is proportional to its PoS. The “winner” delegate shares the PoW reward with other nodes in its cluster. This mechanism eliminates the latency issues associated with scaling commonly faced by other blockchains.

7. What problems does the matrix solve?

With a very secure, easy to use, fast blockchain and decentralized artificial intelligence supported platforms built on this blockchain;

• Waste of energy

• Waste of computing power

• Data Security concerns

• Since DPoS+PoW has a consensus mechanism, it is more advantageous than many consensus mechanisms with the AI algorithms it uses in DPoS.

• Hybrid PoW/PoS design is both secure and environmentally friendly, as it significantly increases the cost of attacking the network.

• It is better at collecting the spare computing power of ordinary users and companies.

• Better for time-insensitive tasks that require a high level of privacy.

• Its decentralized nature makes computing power more affordable.

• Matrix is not limited to computing power, but also aims to build a trading platform with a data platform, an algorithm and service platform.• Matrix is not limited to computing power, but also aims to build a trading platform with a data platform, an algorithm and service platform.

• Focuses on building new technologies and platforms, developing features.

9. Can the Matrix be hacked?

The MATRIX AI Network team takes cybersecurity very seriously and uses all means necessary to prevent attacks. With the help of Artificial Intelligence, the cybersecurity feature of the MATRIX AI Network identifies potential loopholes and malware and intents, while at the same time providing security even under high-intensity attack using a generative competitive network. Additionally, MATRIX AI uses simulated attacks over the encounter network for enhanced network security. And, an AI-powered GAN security system and a fair consensus mechanism also help counter these attacks.

While it is always important to be mindful of the realities of cybercriminal activity, at the same time, as blockchain features evolve, existing security measures will also be put in place to protect you or your business.

MATRIX AI Network is at the forefront of this with the added benefit of complex AI mechanisms.

16. My man tokens are still an erc20, how do I revert them to mainnet coins?

There are two methods for this.

• The first method; It is easy and fast. Selling your Erc20MAN tokens on the exchange (Huobi) and buying them from exchanges with Mainnet support. (Exchanges like Kucoin and Gate)

• The second method is; Participating in the manual swap process that the Matrix team completes on the 5th of each month. Manual-swap guide as below :

https://matrixainetwork.medium.com/monthly-manual-swap-26793676bdb4

17. Will there be a halving for MAN as in Bitcoin?

There are 400 million MAN tokens in total in the pool of Matrix AI Network. By the time the 3 millionth block is generated (estimated to happen in mid-May), the output will be reduced, and mining profits are expected to drop to 85% percent of the original. Like with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies featuring PoW mining, MAN output is designed to gradually decrease in order to bring up production cost and the value of MAN. This will also help boost MAN’s circulation in the market. Meanwhile, compared with Bitcoin, Matrix has adopted a smoother reduction curve and a rising price model for MAN.

21. What specs you using for Matrix node?

It is recommended to have a machine with at least:

• 8-core CPU (or more)

• 16 GB of RAM (or more)

• Approximately 500 GB of disk space per Masternode (anticipating large storage space as it keeps increasing with time)

• At least 1MB/s internet bandwidth per MasterNode

Key points:

a) To launch a Mining Masternode, you must stake at least 10,000 MAN.

b) To launch a Validation Masternode (used for pools), you must stake at least 100,000 MAN.

c) Each Masternode must have 2 Wallets A and B associated with it (which you will therefore need to create).

d) Wallet B will be configured on the machine and will serve as a secure bridge to wallet A where your staking will be located and where you will also receive your MAN rewards.

e) There are two types of rewards generated:

- Staking rewards

- Mining rewards

Both types of rewards will be sent to Wallet A of each node. However the staking rewards will remain locked as long as the staking is also locked, while mining rewards will be available and transferable at all times.

f) Synchronizations with the blockchain are particularly long. We will use a file called snapshot so that we don’t have to synchronize everything from scratch.

22. What makes Matrix different from other artificial intelligence projects and companies?

a) A high-performance, high-performance AI-enhanced blockchain.

b) It is a blockchain that is quite secure, fast, can reach 50k transaction speeds per second with AI technology, and offers ease of use, preventing large energy waste. In general, it can reach 14K TPS.

c) With the increase of computing power, it prevents large energy waste and excessive cost with the Hybrid POW+POS consensus mechanism with AI.

d) Building a decentralized network.

e) It facilitates the exchange of decentralized data, computing power and algorithms in combination with AI technology.

f) MANTA provides scientists with cost-effective computing power; and helps scientists validate their work with MANIA

g) It helps AI scientists improve the efficiency of their workflows, creating more and better algorithms and services for the same cost.

h) It provides high-quality source materials, namely computing power and data for algorithm scientists.

i) With AutoML, it offers fewer barriers, better and more diverse services for AI algorithm creation.

j) It has open platforms with endless possibilities.

k) Decentralized AI maintains the ownership of data by aiming to transform the data it owns into users' personal assets with its platforms, and has a computing power distribution platform to provide affordable computing power as well as provide high-quality large data to businesses.

l) It provides an API and SDK to enterprises to build their own decentralized AI cloud computing/AI service platform using AI service platform.

m) Unlike many projects, it has a Decentralized distributed storage system.
