Introducing Apron Network

The Apron Network is committed to building a decentralized platform that provides infrastructure services based on blockchain technology for DApp developers, DApp users, and infrastructure operators to help their efficient development.

Apron Network is implemented based on the substrate framework and can become a parachain of Kusama. Apron Network will provide node services, on-chain data indexing service, quotation service and other infrastructure services for the Kusama and Polkadot ecosystems.

Apron Network will connect to multiple public chains such as Ethereum, BSC, Filecoin, Helium, including Layer 2, providing developers with low-cost various blockchain ecological infrastructure services in the forthcoming future.

1. Completed the W3F Milestone as a W3F Open Grants recipient.

2. Selected by Substrate Builder Program and completed the interview, now waiting for the result.

3. In-depth cooperation with the Substrate training and developer community and Rebase community officially recognized by "OneBlock One Plus", organized online and offline activities to support developers.

4. Highlight of Apron Apron Apron Network aims to achieve the decentralized infrastructure service platform based on Polkadot ecosystem technology, connecting infrastructure service providers to DApp developers with decentralized service market and provide services for DApp&DeFi developers to help their efficient development rapid generation of API service interfaces. It uses decentralized billing and payment systems to bring decentralized and anonymous payments to users.

Apron is committed to make transactions for infrastructure software services as simple, efficient, and reliable in the decentralized services market as buying goods on Amazon, with complete anonymity. Project on the underlying is service global AMS Marketplace, Aruze Market and Aliyun market.

What Apron provide is platform, what it build is ecosystem. By making use of infrastructure services on the blockchain as the breakthrough point, Apron Network provides decentralized node services for different public chain ecosystems, meanwhile, as more node service providers are connected, it can provide DeFi and DApp developers with more secure and more reliable decentralized node services. Apron Network prototype has been used to deliver node services for HECO and BSC smart chain, Now the integrating Moonbeam, Razor Network with node service.

Typical service will be introduced into the market in the future: 1- Instant messaging service 2- Virtual Private Network Services 3- Face recognition service 4- Short Message Service 5- Captcha Service 6- IP information query service ...

Technical Feature: Feature1: Self-developing blockchain decentralized gateway, providing point-to-point based, Secure service access and service routing techniques. Feature2: Adoption of smart contract to constitute decentralized infrastructure service marketplace Feature3: Utilizing integral Oracle and build-in gateway to build decentralized billing and payment systems Feature4: Creation and realization of Token subscription mechanism and criterion in the Polkadot ecosystem Feature5: Cross-chain service settlement technology based on Polkadot Ecosystem Business Feature: Feature1: Addressing the pain points of infrastructure service providers relying on the platform and subject to regulation and restrictions. Feature2: Eliminating the lack of services on the centralized infrastructure platform, and provide users with richer service content. Feature3: Providing infrastructure services to the market to achieve stable cash flow. Feature4: Orienting toward developers and individuals among blockchain area and the traditional industry, which will be able to attract tech guys from out of the loop. Feature5: With the rapid growth of blockchain, the underlying architecture type of products like Apron will be staying longer.

5. APN Utility

There are multi-roles in the Apron Network, such as the Provider (infrastructure service provider), the Miner (node miner), the consumer (DApp/DeFi developers ), the Inspector (supervisor of the infrastructure services), the Delegator, and regular users. $APN takes effective of service settlement and stimulus in the Apron Network. Participants pay $APN to use infrastructure services and obtain $APN by providing resources and construction, thereby forming an ecologically closed loop. The token scenario of each role as follows:

• The Provider (infrastructure service provider) provides its capabilities such as Ethereum RPC services, Polkadot RPC services, oracle services, privacy protection services, and the like to obtain $APN rewards attenuation while receiving $APN tokens according to the service provided by developers.

• The Miner (node miner) obtains rewards by providing and running nodes.

• The Consumer (DApp/DeFi developers) pays the $APN tokens required for the service to the infrastructure service provider.

• The Inspector obtains $APN Tokens rewards by supervising the registered services' operation on the network and inspecting the registered services.

• The Delegator provides $APN tokens to the Miners and Providers for the staking and receive the APN tokens and a portion of the service fee.

• Regular users gain profit from using DApp and Defi products.

APN is the native token of Apron Network, maximum of supply is 1 Billion, 60% of this amount is the reward for mining and service providers; Institutional private sale constitutes 15%; Team has 5% of the tokens and Advisor has 3%; Ecosystem construction 17%; these tokens are mainly used for LPO (slot auction), market activities, airdrops etc.

6. Product Development

• Demo version product has been released and is currently available for the developers in HECO and BSC ecosystem. Data indexing service, quotation service and random numbers service will be gradually released. Test version product entrance: https://dashboard.apron.network/#/ Usage data: So far, more than 2,500 users have created over 4,000 projects.

• Token Subscription: Polkadot Standards Proposals is under review, the Web3 Open Grants application has been approved.
