A Beginner’s Guide to Holochain: A Framework for Peer-to-Peer Distributed Apps

"Holochain provides a framework to build decentralized applications and aims to change the paradigm of data-centric blockchains to an agent-centric system. This is how it works.

Holochain provides a framework for developers to build decentralized applications and aims to change the paradigm of data-centric blockchains to an agent-centric system. In Holochain’s fledgling system, no true global consensus is maintained. Instead, each agent in the public blockchain maintains a private fork, essentially, that is managed and stored in a limited way on the public blockchain with a distributed hash table. This means there are no scalability limits and dapps hosted on Holochain can do much more with less of nearly everything than traditional blockchains.

In a traditional blockchain, information is stored via cryptographic hashes across a distributed network. Each member of that network maintains a global consensus. That is, each member independently verifies the network as a whole and maintains its integrity. This is one of the key advantages of blockchain technology over traditional tech.”
