with a conscience
Smilo is the hybrid blockchain platform that warrants transparency whilst protecting individual's personal data.

THE HYBRID BLOCKCHAIN PLATFORM WITH A CONSCIENCE:
Hybrid
Smilo facilitates hybrid transactions, hybrid smart contracts and hybrid decentralised applications — with ‘hybrid’ referring to both public and private.
Sustainable
Smilo is an eco-friendly blockchain platform through our advanced Smilo BFT+ protocol.
SCALABLE & FAST
Over 100 times faster than Ethereum and other platforms by our unique Smilo Network protocol and Smilo BFT+ consensus.
DECENTRALISED
Fully decentralized and open network available to everyone.
AFFORDABLE
Smilo transactions require a fragment of other transaction fees.
ETHEREUM COMPATIBLE
100% Solidity and web3.js compatibility, allowing easy and fast adoption.
Smilo is a unique full-featured hybrid blockchain platform that will be able to facilitate hybrid transactions, hybrid smart contracts and hybrid decentralised applications — with ‘hybrid’ referring to both public and private. As such, Smilo will safeguard the privacy of any individual's data whilst warranting full transparency from the organisations that these individuals interact with.
Smilo is based on the unique and self-made Smilo BFT+ consensus protocol. This consensus algorithm combined with the exclusive Smilo Network Protocol (SNP) ensures secure, scalable, quick, and sustainable transactions. Considering these features, we call Smilo our hybrid blockchain platform with a conscience.

Why Smilo?
02
Individuals have become the moral gatekeepers in society, demanding sustainable products and services, while privacy, transparency, and security need to be guaranteed.
Due to this societal shift towards accountability and transparency, businesses, governments, and institutes are directed to transition to a more sustainable state.
This is where Smilo comes into play! Smilo will safeguard the privacy of any individual's data whilst warranting full transparency from the organisations that these individuals interact with.

Mission & Vision
04
This will significantly limit the chance of corruption whilst simultaneously acknowledging the need to protect the individual’s data. A decline of middle men will occur due to the irreversible nature of Smilo’s user-friendly hybrid smart contracts.
The combination of public and private transactions on one blockchain platform, based on the Smilo Network Protocol in combination with the Smilo BFT+ consensus mechanism, defines Smilo as a hybrid blockchain platform with a conscience.
This environment will be hosted on Smilo’s decentralised, secure, fast, and sustainable hybrid blockchain platform. Not to mention, Smilo will make their source code publicly available, meaning that future blockchains, organisations and their applications can apply it to their specific needs.

Use cases
05
Elections
Elections or referenda will be facilitated through secure and private voting, ruling out any post-election influence.
Donations
Donations will be facilitated through a private smart contract construction which ensures the anonymous donor that the money will be spent in an honorable way.
Medical records
Medical records will be owned and managed by individuals and shared with medical institutions and insurance companies upon request.
Public tenders
Public tenders where the RFP’s are being listed anonymously but also definitely and irreversible to avoid adjustments after the assignment has been granted.

Cristiano Ruiz Mazzon
Blockchain Developer
I started programming at the age of 9, just over 30 years ago. I am a BCS at USP (renowned educational institution in Brazil) and I love to see little hexadecimal numbers smiling at me. As a Blockchain early adopter, I love to see how it’s evolving. Well, in fact I saw a lot of rising and fading technologies and became charmed by start-ups and new challenges.
Dion Jakobs
Front-end & Web Developer
Hey! My name is Dion Jakobs and I am currently a full-stack developer. As a kid, I was always interested in technology. During high school, I kept trying to turn off the teacher’s computer through the network and in fact, I actually succeeded at one point! Then, at the age of 16, I became an entrepreneur and started developing websites. Later, I evolved to full-stack development. Ask me to build anything and I am your man.
Michael Hassan
Project Manager
Hey, I am Michael Hassan. I am an all-round project manager who creates synergy between the different assets. In the last few years, I have been working on innovative projects which got me interested in the opportunities blockchain has to offer the market. What I’ve learned from my projects and studies is that blockchain has huge potential in a wide range of applications when it is developed properly. With the Smilo, I want to contribute to the development of blockchain to its full potential.
