Mapping on the Blockchain, Explained
These nodes then connect to each other and form ldquo;zones,rdquo; which basically define an area on the surface of the earth.nbsp; Once the basic grid is established, users can then create ldquo;Points of Interestrdquo; (PoI) which get mapped to the network by being attributed to a specific address on the blockchain. There are other ways users can get involved and earn rewards as well, such as by becoming ldquo;Archivistsrdquo; or ldquo;Diviners.rdquo; These are basically the layers of the network that record information to the blockchain and run queries against that data.
The user level layer, an app called ldquo;Titan,rdquo; provides location information services as well as a wallet for the native HYN token, which users can use to provide their own PoIs to be verified. Using Atlasrsquo;s proof-of-stake consensus mechanism, the top 88 block production nodes will be selected to receive block rewards.nbsp; One more reason users may want to get in early is that Hyperion has 9 planned scaling cycles, and in each cycle network nodes will be effectively ldquo;splitrdquo; into two nodes each, which will scale the network horizontally mdash; in both the Map3 and Atlas layers.
