About Project

Project overview

Arism Wallet is a hybrid-custodial wallet and distributed key management protocol. This decentralized wallet application uses advanced cryptographic algorithms to ensure the security and integrity of user's private keys.

Key features include:

[^1]: Features are planned to be implemented in the next phase.

Target audience

Node providers

We launch a Fungible Token called Arism Token (ARM) which is used for staking, rewarding and fining in operating Arism Nodes. There are two types of nodes in the Arism Network:

Node providers can stake their ARM tokens to become a Node Provider and earn rewards by taking part in verifying user's accounts. When a node provider registers a node, they will be required to stake a certain amount of ARM tokens to join the Subnet. The more ARM tokens staked, the higher the chance of being promoted to the Mainnet.

Users

Users can create an identity by using their third-party platform accounts (e.g. Google) and link them to their Arism Wallet. There are 3 factors to verify a user's identity:

Users can sign in to the Arism Wallet by providing 2/3 factors. A user can also create multiple keys associated with their identity which is responsible by Arism Metadata.

Developers

Developers can integrate the Arism SDK into their applications to allow users to sign transactions by their Arism Wallet. The Arism Application allows users to choose which key to sign the transaction with.

We also provide special APIs to allow developers to interact with the Arism Network.

Problem statement

Our motivation for building the Arism Wallet comes from the following problems:

Our vision is to create a wallet with complete and native support on Secret Network, then consider to expand towards Cosmos ecosystem and other chains.

Inspiration

Web3Auth is a forerunner of the Arism Wallet which as a total raised of 15.5 million USD over 4 funding rounds. To date, it's supporting thousands of Web3 projects with more than 12 million monthly users.

Key Features Web3Auth Arism Wallet
Node providers 9 fixed node providers from reputable parties: Binance, Ethereum, Name Service, Etherscan, Matic/Polygon, Zilliqa, Tendermint, Ontology, SKALE and Torus. 5 node providers on Mainnet and unlimited node providers on Subnet which are totally anonymous.
Stake No staking mechanism. Earn rewards by staking ARM tokens.
SDK integration Available with 4 plans: Base, Growth, Scale and Enterprise. Fees are charged around 399 USD per month. Free to integrate.
Assets management support No support for assets. Support fully assets and chain's services.
Token launch No token launched. ARM token.
Protocol vulnerability Unavailable if Torus Network is down or user lose access to connected OAuth account. Network Factor can be replaced by others (Device Factor and Recovery Factor).
Support EVM-based only. Any chain.
Smart contract Centrally controlled by Torus admin (contract owner). Decisions are casted by node providers through voting schemes as a DAO.

Reason for interest

The Arism Contract enables a transparent and secure way to manage anonymous node providers powered by voting schemes.

Therefore, high transaction speed and low gas fees are the prerequisites that we aim for.

Besides, we are also looking for a friendly chain that well-supports assets (e.g. Fungible Token, Non-Fungible Token, etc.). It will not only highlight the Arism Wallet's features but also provide a good basis for the Arism Protocol to grow.

Technology stack

We focus on developing cryptographic algorithms on the Arism Node and Arism Application side. The front-end parts are built with Next.js and the back-end parts are built with Nest.js. We also use Redis for caching and MongoDB/IPFS for storing metadata.
