Blockchain Foundry, the company behind Syscoin, has since released Blockmarket, one of the first fully working decentralized marketplaces and the first one built entirely on the blockchain, where syscoin, among other cryptocurrencies, is acceptable tender.

A year later, the blockchain became an integral part of, serving as the latter's public ledger of transactions. Although Nakamoto's reference client mentioned a decentralized service, the subsequent implementation did not implement this due to a lack of resources. Syscoin was initially described in a 2014 draft whitepaper that envisioned Decentralized Marketplace Creation, Decentralized Smart Contracts and Documents, Decentralized Certificate Issuance and Transfer, and Decentralized Data Storage and Retrieval, as among the services that it will offer upon its release. Syscoin aimed to bring Nakamoto's vision of a decentralized marketplace back into the blockchain, among the other commercial-grade services it aims to deliver to clients. Other services that Syscoin aimed to provide include secure data storage and transfer, and unique user aliases that link their owners to the services controlled by the alias. The early Syscoin wallet was superseded by the release of Blockmarket Desktop 1.0 on September 16, 2017, marking the culmination of Syscoin's vision of a fully decentralized marketplace with a desktop GUI based on the blockchain. The planned release of Blockmarket Web, a fully web-based version, and Blockmarket Professional in 2018 takes that vision one step further, as more advanced seller stores become a reality.

The Syscoin codebase is publicly available on. Windows and Mac versions of Blockmarket Desktop are currently available and can be downloaded from Linux, including Ubuntu, Fedora, and Debian, will be supported in future versions. Syscoin 1.0 [ ] Syscoin's first iteration, Syscoin 1.0, was a algorithm, altcoin based on Litecoin that built additional features on the blockchain, including a completely distributed marketplace; digital certificate issuance and authentication; merge mining with any scrypt-based coin; and service fee regeneration. Some of these services were available upon launch but only accessible through a command-line interface. Development work on Syscoin 1.0 started in March 2014, but it was only publicly announced on 16 April 2014 at 12:15pm PST on Bitcointalk. Presale began on 19 July 19 2014 at 0.00000465 BTC/SYS, with Moolah.io as escrow agent. ICO price was.00000518 BTC/SYS.

Full launch was announced on 16 August 2014. The ICO raised 1500 BTC of which 250 BTC was used for 'buy support.'

Moolah (Ryan Kennedy aka Alex Green) stole the remaining 750 BTC. Syscoin has been in litigation against Moolah since October 2014 to recover the stolen BTC. Syscoin 2.0 [ ] Syscoin 2.0 added a graphical interface, the Syscoin QT Wallet, and additional features to the Syscoin decentralized marketplace. Additional features include price-pegging, arbitrated escrow, encrypted messaging and Bitcoin as a payment option. Syscoin 2.0 switched algorithms to SHA-256 and became merge-mineable with Bitcoin. Syscoin 2.0 was launched on May 1, 2016 at 12:15pm PST.

The Syscoin QT Wallet has since been superseded by the BlockMarket Desktop. Although support for the Syscoin QT Waller is being continued, additional features available on BlockMarket Desktop will no longer be made available on the old wallet. However, developers who need access to console commands may still do so by using the QT Wallet. Blockchain Foundry [ ] The Syscoin development team created Blockchain Foundry in August 2016, to spearhead the development of merchant-focused platforms based on the Syscoin blockchain and platform. On 22 December 2017, Blockchain Foundry announced that it had gotten a C$3.3 million non-brokered private placement financing. Blockchain Foundry plans to have an IPO on a major Canadian stock exchange by the 1st Qtr 2018.

BlockMarket Desktop [ ] After months of testing and an extensive security audit, Blockchain Foundry released Blockmarket Desktop v.1.0, the first of a series of e-commerce application releases and an upgraded version of the Syscoin QT Wallet, on September 12, 2017. Buyers and sellers using Blockmarket Desktop have a choice of using Syscoin, bitcoin, and zcash in the marketplace. Currently, Blockmarket Desktop runs on Windows and Mac PCs. The most recent version of BlockMarket Desktop, v.1.1.4, features an innovative authentication library that secures off-chain data via blockchain signatures.

BlockMarket Desktop will add more payment processors with the release of v.1.2 in 1st Qtr 2018. A later version will also add support for Syscoin Masternodes v.1.0. BlockMarket Web [ ] Blockmarket Web is the next planned Blockmarket-branded product, slated for release in 1st Qtr 2018. Blockmarket Web will provide all the functionality of Blockmarket Desktop without the need to install software.

It will also support Syscoin Masternodes v.1.0. Technical specifications [ ] Syscoin uses the Dark Gravity Wave v3 (DGW) difficulty algorithm, and has an 888-million maximum coin limit, a 60-second block time, and is proof-of-work SHA-256 merge mineable. Syscoin 2.0 had a block reward of 54.13 tokens per block. Syscoin 2.1, released on December 18, 2016, halved block rewards by 330% percent, reducing the tokens per block to 16.39.

Mining rewards, designed to be gradual and smooth, end at about 800 million coins (block 24,177,646 will happen around the year 2052), and thereafter supply is inflated via the Syscoin inflation/deflation system, assuming services are in high demand. Syscoin is a permissionless, blockchain-based cryptocurrency with a set of smart contracts tested and built on the Bitcoin scripting system using OP1 to OP16 standard script op-codes. In contrast to Turing-complete smart contracts such as those found on, smart contracts on Syscoin are hardened, while retaining backwards compatibility with the Bitcoin protocol, and can be combined to form building blocks for blockchain-based e-commerce solutions. This combination of hardened contracts and Bitcoin compatibility makes Syscoin the ideal choice for commercial integrators looking to leverage a secure solution utilizing blockchain technology. In addition, Syscoin services are built with an alias identity system that utilizes recognizable, unique, and case-insensitive names to facilitate transactions across the network, including multisignature signing, payment discovery, and maintaining payment balances. Cryptographically secure signatures ensure that only the alias owners can perform transactions on the network.

Block subsidies through rewards and transaction fees are the two ways by which Bitcoin provides incentives to miners. However, it has been argued that bitcoin degrades miner incentives as the blockchain expands, making the network unstable. To counter this, Syscoin ties in usage of services to an inflation metric for block rewards, even as it retains transaction fees. If there is a high demand for the services that the Syscoin network provides, service fees are inflated to accommodate demand; if there is low demand, service fees are lowered. This stabilizes prices, and is akin to inflation targeting by central banks, albeit in a decentralized manner. Transaction fees are not affected, and always paid to miners.

Syscoin improves on bitcoin's pruning feature by splitting Syscoin service transactions into two outputs, with the first output not subject to pruning, and the second one being pruned after expiry. Thus, new nodes do not have to download and store expired service data while synching with the network.
