Abstract:
   Trustchain is a protocol for a networked datastructure, designed to
   act as a trust ledger.  This protocol acts as a decentralized
   alternative to platforms like eBay, Airbnb, and Uber.  It is
   specifically designed to record transactions among strangers without
   central control, support high transaction volumes, be application
   neutral, and avoid vendor lock-in.  The protocol defines recording
   transactions in an ordered list using an append-only datastructure, a
   new communication overlay, and a horizontally scalable consensus
   protocol based on checkpoint consensus, called CHECO.  Trustchain has
   resistance to traditional blockchain attacks, such as the 51 percent
   majority attack.  This is achieved by using a graph-based append-only
   datastructure combined with a personal blockchain for each
   participant with their own genesis block.
