Historia aims to be a blockchain-based database developed to preserve the original account of history. The platform aims to incentivize contributors who deliver accurate historical events. These entries are then reviewed by a diverse pool of voters. The Historia ecosystem simply envisions decentralizing the recording of history. The platform also drives a feature within the ecosystem to fight censorship over historical facts.
According to the website, Historia utilizes blockchain technology and decentralization to develop a system for record keeping of current (future history) and historical events with utmost accuracy. The network operates individual computers to store the approved records. The records are approved with the help of a voting mechanism. Once approved, the platform maintains these records in their original form.
These last few years have been very critical for the world due to the COVID-19 pandemic and many other historical events. As the platform website states, the main goal that Historia wants to achieve is to integrate utmost truth in world history and journalism. The platform ensures the accuracy of historical facts while protecting them from perversion. To do this, Historia has employed a governance and voting system along with an immutable file storage system. The passed proposals become a part of permanent storage, and the platform incentivizes users who have delivered those facts.
The platform uses the Interplanetary File Storage (IPFS) system, a hash addressable peer-to-peer content storage method. IPFS makes sure that the platform has a storage mechanism to build on and a secure and efficient method to confirm that all the hosted content is immutable.
The Historia ecosystem provides its users with the following services:
i) Wallets: The platform supports all major web and mobile wallets,
ii) Web application: To make the voting system easier and quicker,
iii) Community ecosystem: The platform wants to develop a diverse and healthy community; hence, individuals from around the world are welcome to join.
The Historia Airdrop event includes users who have registered to this airdrop. The users automatically gain voting rights without purchasing HTA (the native token of Historia).
