Shift: Whitepaper

The Introductory White Paper will be the first of four white paper releases, each being intended for a different audience. This paper’s scope will include discussion of Shift’s planned development for the year 2018, both our marketing and our technical visions for Shift, and basic information about Shift’s achievements so far. The Introductory White Paper itself will therefore consist of two parts: a technical part, and a part for a more casual consumer audience. Furthermore, the three other planned white papers will be introduced in more detail. This first white paper therefore has the purpose of producing material that is useful for introducing Shift to new investors, potential users, and new community members. This material is scheduled for release approximately a month after the release of the storage cluster to testnet.
