(SAITO)

Saito is a layer one blockchain protocol designed to create a scalable and decentralized infrastructure for Web3 applications. Unlike traditional blockchain networks that primarily reward miners or stakers, Saito introduces a unique economic model that incentivizes the nodes responsible for routing data and transactions across the network. This approach aims to solve the free-rider problem where certain participants benefit from the network's infrastructure without contributing to its maintenance or costs. The core of the project is its novel consensus mechanism known as Saito Consensus or Proof of Transaction. This system uses a concept called routing work to determine block production and rewards. Nodes compete to collect and route transactions, and the value they contribute is measured by the fees associated with those transactions as they travel through the network. A key feature of this mechanism is that routing work diminishes as a transaction passes through more hops, which encourages nodes to find the most efficient paths and stay close to the users. This ensures that the people providing the actual infrastructure for the network are the ones being compensated. Saito is specifically built to support data-intensive applications directly in the browser without the need for centralized intermediaries, private APIs, or specialized plugins. This allows developers to build fully decentralized versions of social media platforms, games, and communication tools. Because the network handles the routing and storage of data on-chain through its unique incentives, it eliminates the reliance on third-party node providers that many other decentralized applications currently face. Another important technical feature is Automatic Transaction Rebroadcasting, which is designed to manage the size of the blockchain. It requires old data to be rebroadcast if it needs to persist on the ledger, creating a market for long-term storage and preventing the chain from becoming unmanageable over time. The project was founded by David Lancashire and Richard Parris. The native utility token for the network is used to pay for transaction fees and to facilitate the various work functions within the consensus model. By aligning economic incentives with the actual work of moving data, Saito aims to create a self-sustaining network that can scale to meet the demands of a global internet without sacrificing decentralization. Typical use cases for the platform include encrypted messaging, decentralized gaming, and sovereign social networking where users maintain control over their own data. Learn more
