The Helios platform is made up of a large
number of independent
blockchains connected through a DAG:

Every wallet address has its own blockchain that contains only transactions to or from that particular
wallet address. All blockchains are connected through a DAG formed by transactions. When a transaction takes place, it is only added to the blockchains of the sender and
receiver. The blockchains of all other wallet addresses are entirely unaffected. This completely
eliminates the bottleneck caused by requiring all transactions to be placed on a single blockchain
and allows transactions between different users to occur concurrently. The transaction throughput
also grows with the number of wallet addresses on the blockchain allowing it to scale indefinitely.
The Helios platform will be capable of executing Solidity based smart contracts and dApps. This will allow the creation of
efficient, fast, and secure decentralized solutions to vastly improve systems such as governance, financial technology, energy grids, supply chains,
social networking, health care, fake news, climate change etc... Furthermore, the use of Solidity as the language will enable rapid adoption
by the existing development community and seamless migration of existing dApps.







High speed, Scalable
The parallel blockchain infrastructure results in many orders of magnitude higher transaction throughput than Bitcoin or Ethereum...
Low Transaction Fees
The high transaction throughput, and low upfront and continuing node costs will result in transaction fees that are orders of magnitude lower than Ethereum or Bitcoin...
dApp platform
The Helios platform will be capable of executing smart contracts and dApps programmed in Solidity. We are also taking measures to ensure rapid adoption and growth of the ecosystem...
We're Green
The Helios consensus mechanism doesn’t require mining. This results in 6000 to 9000 times less energy usage as compared to Bitcoin...
Secure
The Helios consensus mechanism maintains the same level of security and immutability as PoW, while providing additional features such as slashing that don't exist with PoW...
Transaction Order
Each user decides the transaction order of the transactions in their own wallets and can add blocks to their blockchain at any time they choose...
No ICO
The Helios project is entirely self funded and not having an ICO. Instead, we are giving away all tokens to bounties, airdrops, dApp incubator, exchange listings etc... (see coin metrics)
Truly decentralized
All aspects of the Helios consensus mechanism are designed to eliminate the centralization of power. From not requiring delegates, to full control of individual blockchains...
Proven Track Record

- Creation of Helios ProtocolApril 2018
- Launch of the TestnetJanuary 2019

Helios Testnet
In 2019 we deployed the Testnet. It showcased and proved the technical abilities of Helios Protocol.
Helios Boson
This phase of development involved launching the mainnet of Helios Protocol. This fork is named the Boson fork. This fork included all of the features of Helios Prototocol except for DAPPs. During this time we were actively developing the next fork that would include DAPP support.
- Wallet and API developmentQ1 2019
During this time we continue development on the Helios Protocol Testnet wallet, Web3 Javascript API, and Web3 Python API. The wallet is a prototype version of our final wallet. It will have the main functionality that allows the interaction with the blockchain, but doesn’t include smart contract interaction, and doesn’t have the final UI or UX design. The two API’s are to allow a way for developers to more easily create applications that interact with the blockchain. They also allow applications to be easily migrated over from the Ethereum platform.
- Testing of wallet and APIsQ2 2019
Public testing of node software, Web3 Javascript API, Web3 Python API, and Testnet wallet. We will give instructions in our discord and other social media platforms on how to use these products in order to try out the capabilities of Helios Protocol and help with testing. This stage will test the blockchain network on a larger scale in the exact same environment as mainnet, and allow us to fix any new bugs, and prove, without a doubt, that the technology is ready. In this stage, the blockchain database will be reset less often, so transactions can be expected to remain for a longer period of time. We will remain at this stage until the protocol is proven to be 100% reliable and bug free.
- Launch of Boson forkQ2 2019
Launching of the mainnet commences with smart contracts disabled. We will continue to have smart contracts enabled on the Photon fork, but will wait until they have been thoroughly tested before enabling them on mainnet.
- Year of 5x masternode bonus startsJune 30 2019
For the first year we are offering a massive 5x bonus on masternode staking rewards. Find out more here.
- Token swapJuly and August 2019
The token swap allowed all token holders to move from the Ethereum blockchain to Helios Protocol.
- Launch of Photon TestnetMay 2020
We succesfully launched the testnet version of our new DAPP support fork. Many DAPPs were built and run on the testnet during this testing phase.

- Current
- Launch of Photon fork on mainnet2021
This fork will finally give Helios Protocol full DAPP support. Allowing DAPP developers to take full advantage of the parallel blockchain infrastructure and deliver next generation DAPP performance.
- More coming soon 2021
Check back soon for updates
Helios Photon
This phase of helios is the ultimate embodyment of the project. In this phase we will launch full DAPP support with the new Photon fork.
Coin Metrics
Total Supply: 350,000,000


Timeframe
All allocated coins will be distributed over a 5 year timeframe. This results in distributing the coins to a larger number of users which eliminates centralization of staking power.
NO TEAM COINS
There is no allocation of coins reserved specifically for the team or founders. Helios Protocol is a community driven project, where progress is fueled by bounties. Team members earn HLS by doing bounties just like everyone else.
Always evolving
As the cryptocurrency and legal environment changes over time, we will be continuously adapting and making tweaks and changes to the distribution plan to ensure the continued success of the project.
Self funded
The founders and team members have payed for all development of the project out of their own savings. We all have personal stake in the game providing increased motivation to create the decentralized web.
