Since the birth of bitcoin in 2009, blockchain projects have proliferated and the

world has recognized blockchain technology as the fourth industrial revolution.

Like internet development in the 1990s, bitcoin has experienced rapid inflation. In

2018, the blockchain bubble burst, and is now in the value creation phase where

development and application of the technology are steadily realized, with enor-

mous development potential in the future. The core function of the token system

that runs on the blockchain is decentralized value transfer and they are inexplicably

linked and follows the same development path.

Wallet is the first point of access to the blockchain industry. Galaxy Wallet is build-

ing a cryptoasset management platform that provides a secure and professional

storage solution, as well as a wide range of value-added services to users world-

wide. The wallet’s Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) structure allows users to have

full control over the management of numerous cryptoassets and to access a plethora

of exceptional DApps. On top of that, the platform’s success will be shared with

users through a reward distribution scheme to create a virtuous and mutually bene-

ficial ecosystem with the cryptocurrency community.

Bitcoin is the first generation of blockchain, with the only function being a digital currency. Block sizes are rather small and transaction speeds are slow, with confirmations taking an average of 10 minutes. When there is a high trans-action volume, it can lead to serious delays and congestions in the network. Adoption in this stage was slow as the concept of cryptocurrencies remains a mystery to the general public.

Ethereum’s arrival marks the beginning of mass blockchain adoption. Ethere-um made vast improvements on transaction per second and more importantly

GALAXY WALLET

It has been ten years since the bitcoin whitepaper was published by Satoshi Naka-

moto, and introduced blockchain technology to the world. Since the birth of

bitcoin, blockchain projects have boomed, especially in 2017 and 2018 during the

height of the ICO mania. Entrepreneurs, engineers and computer scientists have

found applications for blockchain beyond cryptocurrencies, with the potential to

disrupt wide-ranging industries across the globe. Blockchain has gone through

some major changes over the years in terms of block processing speed, throughput,

transfer fee and number of users, which can be divided into three distinct segments,

summarized below:

introduced smart contracts to the blockchain. Smart contracts allow developers to perform a wide range of tasks on the blockchain. It popularized initial coin offerings (ICOs) as well as decentralized applications (DApps), both of which have transformed the cryptocurrency landscape.

The launch of Tron and EOS in 2018 was mired in controversy, but neverthe-less, their innovations have elevated blockchain technology to another level, and brought about another wave of rapid DApp development. EOS founder, Dan Larimer – the creator of two wildly successfully blockchain projects –had further increased transactions per second, and introduced radically new frame-works by eliminating transaction fees for end-users. These significant upgrades allow developers to do even more on the blockchain, increase efficiency, and bring more traditional businesses into the decentralized world.

Tron combines the powerful capabilities of EOS nodes and Ethereum’s smart contract. For example, transaction speed has reached thousands per second, with the potential to reach millions per second in the future. Moreover, there are no transaction fees for end-users. Unlike EOS, however, account creation is free – lowering the barrier to entry even further for new users.

Competition for the cryptocurrency wallet field are fierce, as talents continue to

flood into the nascent industry. Some wallets specialize in only a single blockchain,

such as bitcoin or Ethereum. As blockchain technology advanced, new generation

of wallets use an HD structure that are able to support multiple blockchains, greatly

improving wallets’ versatility. This innovation greatly enhanced user experience as

users now only require a single application to store thousands of cryptoassets. Wal-

lets are also available in different platforms, such as mobile and browser, with some

even offering cross-platform compatibility. The chart below lists some of the main

wallets offered to consumers:

The emergence of DApps triggered many wallets to add an additional feature –

DApp browsers. Users are able to browse through a large selection of DApps

and access them through the wallet. They would also be able to spend their

balance directly from their wallet, creating a seamless user experience.

1.3 Challenges for Cryptocurrency Wallet Providers

1.3.1 Lack of revenue source for cryptocurrency wallets

Due to cryptocurrency’s nature of being decentralized, open and transparent, cryp-

tocurrency wallets itself would not generate any revenue.

1.3.2 Complicated multi-chain management system

The fundamental differences of various blockchains, in terms of programming

language, technical framework, network requirements, etc. make it difficult to

manage cryptoassets with just one wallet. Currently, most wallets only provide

users with only one option – a non-custodial (or decentralized) wallet where users

have to safeguard their own private key or mnemonic phrase. Although this method

maximizes security, inexperienced users may be discouraged or confused by this

new process. As a result, they may lose their private keys or mnemonics, and all

their assets with it.

On the other hand, common users may put their assets in custodial (or centralized)

wallets or in exchanges. Since users do not hold the private keys, they do not truly

own their assets and the platform ultimately holds all the control. In the event of a

hack, bankruptcy, or exit scam, the users would not lose all or most of their assets.

Wallets also lack value-added services and use cases. Consequently, wallets are

used infrequently as it is only used for asset storage purposes.

1.3.3 Wallets lack a complete ecosystem

User stickiness is a major hurdle for most wallet providers as they lack a

closed-loop ecosystem. Since assets are decentralized on the blockchain, users can

freely switch between different wallets that follow the same standard, making user

retention a challenging task.

1.4 Opportunities for Cryptocurrency Wallet Providers

As the industry’s first point of entry; the growing use cases for blockchain applica-tions; and the expansion of crypto financial products, opportunities for cryptocur-rency wallets are immense.

As blockchain technology matures, developers and entrepreneurs are increasingly

interested in decentralized applications(DApps)because it helps to expand

blockchain’s utility. According to data from State of the DApps, the rate of DApp

creation increased dramatically in May 2017, coinciding with the elevated interest

in ICOs. Unlike the ICO hype, however, enthusiasm for DApps did not wane as the

number of DApps continue to grow steadily through bull and bear markets alike.

In fact, the growth rate remained high even during ICO’s rapid decline. At present,

the most popular categories for DApps are trading and gaming, which have a high

number of active users and high transaction volume. As the foundational technolo-

gy continue to improve on the main chain, DApps prospects would improve in

tandem. There is a prevalent problem in this market, however, as many so-called

decentralized games are not truly decentralized. Developers of these DApps fail to

provide adequate evidence to prove their game is fair or that it is based on true

randomness, leaving the possibility of game manipulation.

First of all, traditional assets generally face a relationship between risk and return, and traditional assets, whether tangible or intangible, fixed or liquid, monetary or stock, face different pricing standards and financial returns between countries. For instance, a Chinese national who owns a fixed-asset property would have difficulty obtaining bank loans in other countries. Addi-tionally, developed countries like South Korea, Japan, and Singapore generally keep their interest rates low to stimulate the economy. Therefore, wealth prod-ucts offered by financial institutions are also low, fluctuating in the 2 to 4% range. Some countries even have negative interest rates or interest subsidies, resulting in dismal financial returns for investors.

Opportunities in the budding blockchain industry are relatively more abundant due to asymmetric information, imperfect market competition, and other factors. In such an environment, there are opportunities for risk-free arbitrage across platforms or regions, inter-period arbitrage through contracts, interest from collateralized lending, and many more. Currently, the financial products can generally offer between 8 to 10% return, much more lucrative compared to traditional assets.

Furthermore, the top cryptocurrency exchanges, such as Huobi, Binance, Bitmex, etc., have comprehensive and open APIs that enables users to entrust their asset to professional financial institutions to conduct arbitrage operations without the need to transfer assets. This allows users to retain control of their assets in a transparent and safe manner while benefitting from professional traders’ expertise and increased income.

Blockchain-based financial products are superior to their traditional counter-parts in business opportunity, rate of return, and level of security – the growth potential for these financial services is massive.

2.3.1 Overall technical framework

The overall technical framework of the Galaxy Wallet is divided into: the base layer, the micro service layer and the application layer.

Among them, the basic layer realizes cross-chain transactions of central account assets based on EOS side chain technology, and achieves high security and stability in the process of central account asset transaction. The high availability of message queue is attained based on NATS distributed message processing. The scalability of the system is reached based on the latest CockroachDB distributed data storage technology. The third-generation secure hash algorithm based on Secure Hash Algorithm 3 encrypts private keys and data. SHA-3 is a secure hash algorithm stan-dard issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Its main characteristics include rapid encryption, uniform bit distribution and good anti-col-lision performance.

2.3.2 HD wallet standard

Galaxy HD wallet meets BIP-32/BIP-39/BIP-44 standards. Galaxy HD wallet is a fully decentralized mobile multi-currency wallet that does not require any data interaction with the platform. Through 12 mnemonics, a unique private key can be generated to manage all currencies under the main chain, such as BTC, ETH, EOS. Users can completely "take full control of their own assets", which ensures the security of users' assets and the stability of transactions.

The principle of HD wallet is to generate a root private key seed from 12 mnemon-ics, then generate a unique root private key based on the seed, which later derive a child private key from the root private key. Each currency corresponds to a child private key, thus realizing asset management of multiple currencies with unique private key management.

2.3.3 Cross - chain transactionsGalaxy Wallet account is based on the main chains of BTC, ETH, EOS and internal EOS side chain technology. All users' multi-currency assets are recorded in the side chain ledger, and the main chain currency transfer - internal side chain locking mechanism. The coin withdrawal process involves burning of internal side chain assets and the main chain issuing the corresponding coins. Asset transactions or numerical changes in accounts are completed by smart contracts running on the side chain, which ensures that every asset transaction and record is safe.

2.3.4 NATS distributed processingNATS is an open source, lightweight and high performance distributed message middleware, which implements a highly scalable and elegant Publish/Subscribe model. Based on this technology, it realizes timely response and processing of wallet transaction messages, bringing good experience to users.

2.4.1 Solution to wallet’s technical difficultiesIn order to solve the user's security concerns with private key generation and safe-keeping, Galaxy Wallet would provide users with a dual wallet management system: users can choose to use a platform account, which is based on a private EOS chain that prevents tampering of the database. A platform account only requires a password and account name to login. Users can also create a non-custo-dial decentralized wallet, where the mnemonics are locally generated by users’ mobile phone, so they would have complete control of their assets at all times. Even inexperienced users can now easily create a wallet, and fully control the secu-rity of their assets.

Example: John, a first time user in New York, knows that BTC has a lot of room to rise in the future, but he doesn't have a clue about buying and storing it or anything about private keys. John buys some from Galaxy Wallet’s OTC service at the lowest price, which is automatically stored in the platform account. After a while, John finally appreciates the importance of keeping his own private key, so he immediate-ly generates a non-custodial wallet to obtain his own mnemonic phrase and private key, and transfer his crypto holdings there. In the future, he can easily recover his assets or switch to different wallet providers using the private keys.

2.4.2 Solutions for value-added servicesIn addition to the basic functions of storage, payment and transfer, Galaxy Wallet provides users with crypto financial products, centralized and decentralized trad-ing, centralized and decentralized collateralized lending, and gaming. As block-chain applications become more prevalent, the use case for blockchain would also become more abundant and diverse, and wallets would become the core manage-ment platform to offer value-added services.

Example:John found it difficult to pay the rent due to some financial difficulty recently, but he is unwilling to part with his BTC holdings. When he discovered that Galaxy-Wallet offers collateralized loans, he immediately applied on the platform. Far away in Japan, Aso saw John’s loan demand and lent out 60% of the BTC collateral in GUSD, a stablecoin. Through Galaxy Wallet’s OTC, John converts the GUSD to US dollars to pay his rent. One month later, John bought GUSD and repaid it back to Aso.

After a while, John's financial situation improved and he had surplus funds, but the interest rate at the bank is only 2%. Alex, far away in India is willing to pay 8% interest and collateralize his BTC for a loan. John immediately exchanged US dollars for GUSD and lent it to Alex. Two months later, John was very happy to get his principal back plus interest that is 4 times higher than that of the bank. The price of BTC has increased by nearly 10% in two months. Alex is glad that he did not sell the BTC, not only did he not incur a loss, but he also earned a price difference of roughly 8%.

2.4.3 Solutions to the lack of an ecosystemIn addition to the value-added services mentioned above, Galaxy Wallet has also designed and implemented a token economy system where revenue from the platform is shared with the users to create a mutually beneficial and virtuous ecosystem.

Example:John found that by using GC in the process of purchasing BTC, he can enjoy a 30% discount on transaction fees, so he decided to buy some GC. Later, he found out that revenue generated from Galaxy Wallet are distributed to GC holders, so he recom-mended his friend, Alex to join and buy GC as well.

Although the blockchain industry has made many advances in the past few years, there are still many major market obstacles to overcome before large-scale adoption is possible. Galaxy Wallet will overcome these challenges to attract more users to build a vibrant community.

Galaxy Wallet is not directly profitable. Users can store their cryptocurrencies in the wallet for free and will only incur mining fees when transferring their assets, which goes to miners and not the wallet providers themselves.

To give user’s the best experience, Galaxy Wallet will also not charge any fees for asset storage. The Galaxy Wallet will focus on safety and security while providing the most convenience for cryptocurrency investors. The main purpose of the wallet is to attract novice and experienced users to build an active community and maxi-mize the benefits for cryptocurrency investors.

Galaxy Wallet provides a decentralized wallet to serve as a blockchain portal for users, providing users with value-added services based on the user's free manage-ment of assets to achieve profitability. Value-added services include but not limited to: wealth management, lending, DApps, trading, etc.

3.2.1 TeamThe team holds a total of 420 million GCs, with a maximum vesting period of 36 months, which would be adjusted based on the market environment and the number of platform users.

3.2.2 Institutional investors Institutional investors’ tokens are released one month after the token is listed on an exchange (including bonus). 20% of the token will be released every month after-wards, completing the process in five rounds.

3.2.3 Community rewardsGalaxy Wallet is positioned as a “global cryptoasset management platform” and we are targeting users from around the world. Building a vibrant community is a top priority so in order to effectively motivate community builders and participants, Galaxy Wallet will use 15% of the token or 315 million GCs to reward community members, so the success of the platform would be shared among the whole commu-nity.

We have a variety of incentives to reward members that contribute to the communi-ty. Rewards will vary at different stages of the platform’s development, which is divided into the following 4 stages:

Community Building Stage:At the beginning of the community building phase, we will introduce Galaxy Wallet to seed users and community leaders and reach a common understanding and goal. Then, through seed communities, we can execute a comprehensive mar-keting campaign through video and various media channels to reach more users.
