Mainframe is a decentralized messaging protocol designed to help combat censorship while increasing the privacy of individuals and groups. Its native token, MFT, is an ERC20 token compatible with the Ethereum blockchain. Mainframe aims to create the necessary infrastructure for the new Internet, with a particular focus on the development of private, peer-to-peer, censorship-resistant applications, and communications. The Mainframe platform uses a network of nodes to relay and route data packets over the network. Nodes are stimulated by tokens, which are Mainframe's own cryptocurrency. MFT is used to reward nodes that keep the network running. Nodes are rewarded with some MFTs for relaying packet data in a timely and efficient manner, delivering packet data from sender to receiver, and providing a reliable decentralized data store. In addition, MFT can also be used as an exchange asset on marketplaces (where goods and services are bought and sold) on the Mainframe platform. Since its inception, Mainframe has had numerous communities supporting its mission of economic freedom and access to financial resources. Mainframe is backed by companies such as ArringtonXRP, NEO Global Capital, FBG, Shapeshift's Eric Voorhees, ICON's Min Kim, Ethereum's Gavin Wood, and Zilliqa's Sinshu Dong. The decentralized and distributed architecture of Mainframe, eliminates the threat of data leaks and negates any risk of service interruption. There is an urgent need for what Mainframe has to offer, and in the future, the user will value privacy and censorship-resistance even more. Another added benefit is the path to better scalability for the platform. Mainframe’s service levels were designed to internally support the development of fully decentralized applications. The system has redundant chunks of data spread across multiple nodes that ensure high network stability.
