MADANA is the first ever ICO and Sidechain project on the Lisk Blockchain. MADANA stands for an open platform for data analysis, preserving privacy by design. The blockchain-based ecosystem allows anyone to stay in control of their data while monetizing it in an anonymous way. MADANA aims to provide a GDPR compliant way for data processing, enabling new business models for future Apps and Services. German ICO with approval from the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority.
MADANA – MARKET FOR DATA ANALYSIS
The data market is currently dominated by enterprises who are buying big sets of data from third parties that are subject to different data protection laws. In known systems, these enterprises decide which data is available for sale. A problem with this is that all of the data is shared regardless of whether the data or part of the data, contains information the originator does not want to share. Thus, the originator of data is exposed to an unnecessarily high risk of privacy violations.
MADANA is creating a new approach to provide a system implementing the method to eliminate the stated problems and to extend the data market with further advantages. The objective is achieved with a system which provides the following key aspects:
▶ A method for contributing data anonymously to a remote system while getting paid.
▶ Client-sided data storage and an easy to handle encryption framework to retake control of data in general.
▶ A method for contributing analytics skills while getting paid in exchange.
▶ An open data analysis marketplace for anyone.
▶ A decentralized pool of information.
▶ A method for getting analysis results of new and sensitive data.
▶ Trustworthiness through blockchain and smart contracts.
The most important advantage is that the data producer’s privacy is respected, no third parties are involved, and entry barriers are minimized. Thus, a new ecosystem can be established in which everybody can participate – through transparency, trust, and monetary benefits.
