Stash combines many innovative blockchain technologies
to form a leading edge cryptocurrency
Stash is a next generation open source digital currency for the real world. A key advantage of Stash is that it solves numerous problems being encountered by other cryptocurrencies. Stash does this by bringing together many ground-breaking blockchain technologies while using the gold standard in cryptocurrency privacy.
In addition to comprising critical features for an efficiently functioning open decentralized autonomous network such as self-governance and self-funding, Stash also incorporates instantaneous transactions (StashSwift), increased network capacity, low transaction fees and state-of-the-art zero-knowledge cryptography.
Unlike other methods for cryptocurrency privacy that rely on obscuring the linkage between transactions, Stash encrypts transactions on the blockchain. This allows for the amount, origin and payment destination to stay hidden while still verifying the transfer of funds under the network’s consensus rules using zk-SNARK proofs.
Instantaneous transactions using StashSwift
Superior untraceable anonymous transactions using zero knowledge cryptography
Significantly lower transaction fees than those incurred using commercial banks or Bitcoin
A governance system allows for quick decentralized decision making
Self-funding allowing for continued development without the need to rely on founders financing or donations
Capacity: 80x bitcoin transaction capacity through an iNode network and up to 20-megabyte blocks
For cryptocurrency to be equally interchangeable it must not have a history otherwise there may be individuals that choose not to accept it because they don’t like where it’s been. This has already happened with bitcoin where exchanges have blacklisted certain coins following major wallet thefts. While mixing coins is being attempted by other crypto currencies it is slow and questionable in terms of how private it really is. Stash provides superior fungibility by separating Stash coins from their past transaction history on the blockchain. Stash reveals nothing beyond the fact that somewhere some valid transactions occurred.
Owners of Stash will be able to run their own iNodes by providing resources to the network in the form of CPU power and storage. iNodes are paid 45% of the block reward. To run one iNode you need to own 10,000 Stash. The more Stash you own the more iNodes you can run and the more Stash you can get paid. Early adopters of Stash have the potential advantage of generating higher rewards on their Stash. In order to run an iNode Stash owners must continue to hold their Stash cryptocurrency and not spend it. This in turn reduces the available market Stash supply and increases the stability of the Stash cryptocurrency.
While Stash is powerful under the surface with leading edge cryptocurrency features, above the surface it is simple and user friendly. Stash will allow anyone irrespective of their technical abilities to download the Stash wallet with a few clicks and send or receive funds instantaneously and privately. While Stash will continue to push the boundaries of blockchain innovation it will always endeavor to provide a cryptocurrency that is intuitive and easy to use for the everyday consumer who requires digital money that is private, safe, and effortless to transact with.
We have written a white paper that explains Stash and articulates it's many different features in more detail.

Describing zk-SNARKs Technology
“I was amazed it seemed hard to believe that a cryptographic technology could exist that was so powerful, capable of providing almost any kind of cryptographic proof without revealing any extra information in the process.”

What are our plans and where are we heading?
Stash Labs will work on developing the iNode structure. The 2nd tier iNode structure will allow STASHPAY.IO software users to set up iNodes and in return for providing resources to the network get paid STASHPAY.IO Tokens on any blockchain that decides to adopt the STASHPAY.IO software.
The Stash Governance and Funding System will be finalized in order to help any STASHPAY.IO Open Decentralized Autonomous Network function efficiently and evolve organically while utilizing the collective intelligence of the STASHPAY community. The STASHPAY.IO governance and funding system will be designed so that the community can vote on funding and governance proposals on any blockchain that decides to use the STASHPAY.IO software.
Stash Labs will release the StashPay.IO open sources software. Any launch of a STASHPAY.IO Platform will occur by members of the community and not by Stash Labs. If a STASHPAY.IO Platform adopting the STASHPAY.IO Software is launched, the default STASHPAY.IO Software configuration developed by Stash Labs will allow users to utilize the above mentioned features.
Stash Labs will integrate ZSL, a zero-knowledge security layer into STASHPAY.IO software designed to anonymously and securely settle transactions on the blockchain while at the same time keeping the origin, destination and payment amounts private. Stash Labs will also develop a GUI wallet for storing STASHPAY.IO Tokens.
Integrate a peer to peer private messaging system (StashChat) that allows all STASHPAY.IO users to send shielded messages using zero knowledge cryptography. StashChat will be a completely anonymous communication network with no third-party intermediaries that will allow users to communicate privately both individually and in groups.
Stash Labs will develop a mobile app that will allow STASHPAY.IO users to store and anonymously send and receive any STAHPAY Tokens. The STASHPAY.IO mobile app will allow users to easily use their phone for everyday transactions. In addition, users will be able to monitor their STASHPAY.IO tokens reward payments from running iNodes on any blockchain that decides to use the STASHPAY.IO software.
Stash Labs will launch a Decentralized API that will utilize random groups of iNodes which will eliminate the need for software developers to store validate and download any entire blockchain running the STASHPAY.IO software while still proving them with the security and privacy of an iNode.
Create a STASHPAY debit card that will allow any STASHPAY.IO Token owners to securely pay with their STASHPAY in person, online or over the phone with any merchant that accepts Fiat currencies. As a result, this will allow STASHPAY.IO Token owners to purchase virtually any product or service they wish with their STASHPAY.IO Tokens and should increase the utility of any STASHPAY.IO Tokens.
Create a direct payment facility that allows users to directly exchange their STASHPAY.IO Tokens for Fiat currency and vis versa. The STASHPAY Conversation Gateway will be integrated into the STASHPAY.IO wallet and mobile app.
