https://medium.com/oneledger/oneledger-developer-meet-up-highlights-b9cfff494309

Hello Community,

As you may be aware, OneLedger held it’s first Developer Meet-Up in Toronto on February 13, 2019.
Despite the cold and stormy weather, we had a good turnout for the event.
Our event was attended by 18 people who were curious to know more about the OneLedger technology.





Sahir Parmar (Community Director), Shaleen Ladha (Marketing Associate) and David Cao (Founder & CEO) welcoming guests



The event started out with a great presentation by Aly Kassam, the Product Manager at OneLedger.
He spoke about our vision and discussed several stages of product development.

OneLedger aims to release its Mainnet by the end of Q4 2019.
Our team is putting in a lot of work around the clock to push hard to meet the deadlines and execute all the milestones on the roadmap.




OneLedger Roadmap for 2019




Next, was Alex Lan, the Co-Founder and Blockchain R&D at OneLedger.
Alex discussed the architecture behind OneLedger and did a quick demonstration of our smart contracts.

The smart contracts are based on JavaScript.
OneLedger will look to add multiple language support in the future to make it easier for developers to build Dapps in the language of their choice and allow seamless integration within the OneLedger protocol.







“We don't think there will only be one Blockchain that dominates in the future.
We definitely think there will be numerous bounded blockchain networks, and OneLedger will connect/exchange the value they provide”, said Alex.
He added, “What makes OneLedger so unique is it’s very deeply rooted consensus, and this is going to play an integral role in the future blockchain networks.”




The third and final speaker of our event was Chinmay Patel. Chinmay is the CEO and Founder of BlockX Labs. He mentioned the role of Developers in this new era of technology.

“When you make the process easier for developers to implement the technology into their solutions, the clients will come.
You just need to win the vote of one Senior Developer from the client’s team”, said Chinmay.




With this, our event came to an end.
The OneLedger team would like to thank everyone who was present at the event, as well the community who has constantly supported us throughout our journey.
We hope to see you all at the next event.




“We may be a small team, but we have big dreams.”

OneLedger statement regarding Crypto Briefing’s Code Review

https://medium.com/oneledger/oneledger-statement-regarding-crypto-briefings-code-review-95642c83d240



Hello Community,


We would like to thank Andre and the Crypto Briefing team for their honest and unbiased review.
It is very important for OneLedger and the Blockchain industry to have third parties review their code and we appreciate the time and effort you have given our project.


However, such unbiased reviews sometimes miss the active work projects are doing, which OneLedger feels may have happened in this case.
Since our initial MVP, we have reprioritized our roadmap to focus on fundamental blockchain functionality, ensuring that our transaction management, account management, validator creation and Smart Contracts are in place prior to working on our cross-chain use cases.
This has also allowed us to spend more time to work on two of our core pieces of functionality, the Chain Driver Engine and the Side Chains.
The Chain Driver Engine and Side Chains together will extend our Atomic Swap capabilities and allow for easy adoption of new Blockchains into the OneLedger ecosystem, making our goal for supporting 10 Blockchains, by the end of 2019, a reality.
To be clear, our current implementation for the Atomic Swap is still based on our MVP code, because we plan to extend it in 2019.


For the 6 months between our MVP release and the launch of our testnet, we primarily focused on core blockchain functions and our JavaScript Smart Contracts.
It would have been trivial to support an Ethermint implementation with Solidity as our Smart Contract language.
However, to ensure that we are true to our community, we embarked on the path less travelled, by implementing our own protocol and working considerably on our OneLedger Virtual Machine (OLVM).
OLVM supports JavaScript as it’s Smart Contract language, to appeal to a larger developer community for building Dapps. One of the most exciting features on the OLVM is the ability to support off-chain JavaScript Libraries.
This will decrease the size of the OneLedger Smart Contracts substantially. For OneLedger Smart Contracts, developers will not have to copy all the code from other libraries into their Smart Contracts, inflating the size and requiring more gas,
which is still a requirement for Ethereum but rather can just reference libraries available to our validators. The code for the OLVM can be found here.
https://github.com/Oneledger/protocol/tree/master/node/olvm


For our Testnet, we also built an interim staking capability for launching Validator Nodes based on a Validator Token, keeping in mind that we will be building the full staking functionality in the second half of 2019.
Based on our experience with other blockchain Testnet releases, we also built in the capability to stake and un-stake, that way our testnet doesn’t crash when validators go offline.
Along with the validator feature we built in fees for executing transactions and deploying Smart Contracts, which validators can collect.


One of the other projects we started during this six month period is our OneExplorer. The OneExplorer required supporting infrastructure to retrieve data from the blockchain.
We built an Application Blockchain Interface (ABI) and Remote Procedure Call (RPC), that work together to feed data to the OneExplorer. We released our OneExplorer Beta in the first week of February.
Our repo for the OneExplorer is still private as we are in Beta and are still optimizing some features, but you can view it at https://oneledger.network


Although we agree with several parts of Crypto Briefing’s article, such as keeping our GitHub Repo up-to-date, and that our current Atomic Swap functionality is
still based on our MVP code, this doesn’t negate all the work the OneLedger team has completed over the six month period after our MVP launch.


Feel free to reach out to us on our official Telegram channel https://t.me/oneledger

Sincerely,

Alex Lan
Co-Founder & Blockchain R&D

OneLedger v0.9.0 Update


https://medium.com/oneledger/oneledger-v0-9-0-update-2da3c9813403





In our last sprint, we enhanced the OneExplorer further by adding a relational database to house Accounts, Blocks and Transactions, to make our data requests faster and not burden the blockchain node with these requests.
In addition, we are continuing our work on the Chain Driver Engine and we have also started building components for our OneWallet and are still working on our OneClick Deployer.


The list of changes includes:

--OneExplorer
-Features

-Explorer Database Setup and Configuration
-Stream Data now leverages new DB
-Blockchain Data is persisting in OneExplorer DB

--OneExplorer Bug Fixes

Explorer Block Height KPI was behind by 1 block


--Protocol
-Features

-Upgraded Tendermint version to 0.30.1
-Chain Driver Engine: Create Contracts on Bitcoin and Ethereum networks
-OneClick Deployer: Build Process Automation


--OneWallet
-Features

-Created Micro Service framework
-Developed Micro Service for Balance Query



In the next sprint, we will concentrate more on Protocol features that will help optimize our P2P Connection and clean up some tech-debt incurred since Chronos Launched.
We will also continue to work on the Chain Driver Engine.

NOTE: After the release for 0.9.0, we will be resetting the Chronos network and purging the current data.
This is so that we can run more tests on Chronos and ensure it’s stability.


--New Release Management Structure


OneLedger has a new release process. We will continue to update our Master Branch on GitHub on a bi-weekly basis.
However, on a Quarterly basis, we will mark a build as a Release Candidate and work with our partners to ensure they update their nodes to the Protocol version for the most recent Release Candidate.
This means Chronos will be updated on a quarterly basis.


We are doing this to streamline our release process and structure it for our partners and community. We are starting this process with version 0.9.0.
 For example, after v0.9.0, our next Chronos update will take place on v0.10.0, while we keep pushing the biweekly updates i.e. v0.9.1, v0.9.2 and so on.

OneLedger forms a strategic partnership with ContractLand

https://medium.com/oneledger/oneledger-forms-a-strategic-partnership-with-contractland-d504afb7a167

OneLedger is proud to announce a partnership with ContractLand. ContractLand is a Canadian company built for the decentralized exchange of
cryptocurrencies in a multi-chain ecosystem.



ContractLand is built on top of Terra chain, a high performing (>3000TPS) blockchain specifically designed for DEX, which is powered by their own cross-chain protocol Terra-Bridge.
Terra-Bridge enables cross-chain transfer across different public blockchains.

OneLedger is a new generation of cross-chain protocol that provides an efficient cross-chain engine. It helps individuals and businesses achieve cross-chain transactions through side-chains.
At the same time, OneLedger also provides SDK development tools for enterprise developers. It can be used to build business modules that serve multiple business purposes.
All interactions with the public and private chains occur on the side-chain, which greatly increases the efficiency and security of the cross-chain interactions.

The two companies will leverage their resources to accelerate their development for cross-chain technology and assist each other in overlapping topics.
Both teams will collaborate in various online and offline marketing initiatives as well.

ContractLand Lead Developer, Peter He said: “OneLedger is a very solid project. The #DevelopmentTeam  of OneLedger has put in a lot of good work.
Both teams have their own unique specialties and this partnership offers a great opportunity to combine the best part of the two teams altogether.
More importantly, ContractLand and OneLedger share the same vision for the future of blockchain technology. Both projects believe the key to further popularize this technology is to solve the interoperability and scalability of the current blockchain systems.
We believe that collaborating with OneLedger will help both projects grow dynamically.”

“The team at ContractLand is very talented. We are confident that the technical departments at both companies can help each other to speed up the development and create a mutually beneficial environment.
The two teams aim to extend their technologies and boost the process of mass adoption.” Said David Cao, the Founder and CEO at OneLedger.

Meet the OneLedger Team: 12 — Pavan Kappara


https://medium.com/oneledger/meet-the-oneledger-team-12-pavan-kappara-aad19d24249


A new team member on the Development side has boarded the OneLedger Team.



Pavan Kappara will be working as the Architect and Dev Manager.

Pavan has over ten years of experience working in different software development roles. He has been a part of a gaming startup and helped them architect and build a cross-casino gaming platform.
He has also helped big retail companies in India launch into e-commerce space with novel omni-channel solutions. Some of his employers over the last ten years include Disney Interactive Studios, SecureKey Technologies Inc., and Lithium Technologies.
Pavan is a self-driven individual who enjoys solving challenging technical problems and has some interesting thoughts to share about the blockchain industry.


We can relate blockchain to the World Wide Web during the early ’90s. The blockchain is fundamental in the growth of the next phase of technology evolution.
This upcoming technology is going to be a game-changer and disrupt many industries. The critical part here is to understand how blockchain can trigger mass adoption, and it feels good to realize that my vision aligns with OneLedger’s vision: enterprise adoption will bring in mass adoption.
I’m very excited to be a part of an energetic team aiming to create history — Pavan Kappara.


Pavan will provide architectural leadership for the OneLedger product(s) as well as oversee the operations on the Dev side to ensure that the correct measures are being taken to reach our end goal.
OneLedger has a big promise to deliver on and it is critical to ensure that the development is headed in the right direction. Our team realizes the importance of matching the expectations with reality and ensuring a smooth and reliable execution.


According to Pavan, “Blockchain isn’t a solution to everything, but it can serve as a catalyst for that next stage of evolvement. In the future, I can clearly envision many Blockchain protocols evolving and solving the problem of decentralized technology coexisting with the centralized world.
And as far as interoperability goes, this can open a whole new world of possibilities, which was not even envisioned before. Interoperability, which is one of the key features of OneLedger, can be used in many enterprise applications.
For example, using OneLedger to connect enterprises to track the flow of assets between them.”


Pavan’s favourite quote is “Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth — Mike Tyson”. It is these punches that our team has to be vigilant about and keep moving towards our target no matter how many ups and downs we have.

The OneLedger team is very excited to have Pavan on board and take us closer to our vision.
