Public Entity Name

Web3 Enabler, Inc.

Product & Architecture

We will utilize the following Stellar developer tools / APIs and other blockchain integrations.

  • We will use Rehive to provide notifications for real time transactions.
  • We will use Horizon API provide access to blockchain data.
  • Existing integrations with Coingecko (XRP for Salesforce, Blockchain Payments v1.7+) provide real-time pricing.
  • We may utilize Hubble API for future versions of research.
 

Notes:

  • Certain features from the v2 product may be ported into the open source project. These include planned integrations with Bitrank and Blockscope to enable KYC-AML for our commercial product may be made available in the open source project.
 
  • It is possible that these features may be in a v2, so they are not in the roadmap.  However, if they are easy to implement in v1 we will include them. These integrations are in Blockchain Payments roadmap in v2.2 and v2.3, so the complexity of inclusion is not known, since we have just released v2.0 at the time of this submission.
