Sentinel $DVPN will soon be the first Cosmos-based project and one of the few in #DePin to handle 1 petabyte of data in any form (bandwidth/storage etc).

Consistently doing 4TB+ per day across nearly 10k unique users.

Stats are verifiable on-chain.

The back-end of Sentinel's stats platform is fully open-sourced and anyone can use this code to verify these stats.

Sentinel's use of the Cosmos 'fee grant' module can be found in the flagship Sentinel Shield dVPN application.

Every time a user connects or disconnects to a node it is completely on-chain and requires gas payment, for best UX this is abstracted

The Sentinel ecosystem becomes one of the first #DePin p2p ecosystems in the history of Web 3 to cross 1 petabyte of data transmitted between service providers and users. Real utility, 50k+ MAU, 10k DAU.

http://stats.sentinel.co

Price always follows utility in the longer run.

These statistics and tens of thousands of daily users in a purely decentralized p2p environment is made possible thanks to the Cosmos-SDK which makes Sentinel's on-chain DHT possible.

Transactions nearing 100M, incredible milestone. Thanks to the Cosmos ecosystem.

Sentinel's upcoming AI data layer is a very straightforward usecase for the Web 3 AI ecosystem. Sentinel's Android AI data miner nodes are not very different from a $DVPN exit node in theory.

How is dVPN different from the data layer?

Both of these protocols are very similar.

In the Sentinel dVPN service the user establishes a real-time connection to the service provider or the exit node and requests data through an encrypted tunnel from websites/servers of the user's desire. Payment for dVPN/VPN services is most popularly in the form of $/unit of time.

In the Sentinel AI Data layer, there is the same function of a user fetching requested data from a website, however this data may or may not be downloaded by the user in real-time and instead may be saved in a data cache (e.g decentralized storage protocol like Jackal or IPFS). This means that the end-user does not have to establish an end to end tunnel in this case and potentially also be offline while data is stored in a cache (or regular storage solution based on client requiremnts) Payment for the AI Data layer will be likely in terms of bandwidth consumed as well as a factor of unique IPs utilized.

The AI data miner is a reverse proxy while the dVPN node is an end to end tunnel.

The Sentinel ecosystem strongly feels that the only currency of payment for subscriptions in the Sentinel Shield dVPN (http://shield.sentinel.co) should be $DVPN.

There will be Web 3 on-ramp solutions for users to purchase $DVPN in-app, for example the Swapfast solution (http://swap.sentinel.co). The Sentinel Shield dApp is Sentinel's flagship dVPN app which servers the purpose of educating the broader ecosystem about Sentinel and its purpose/technology while delivering fully end to end encrypted, open-source freedom.

Sentinel's on-chain subscription contracts can be configured to accept any form of IBC payment as well as on-chain payments from other chains or even off-chain payments (credit card). However, imposing the use of a specific currency will increase overall awareness of the currency's ecosystem and other benefits such as speed of transaction and reliability.

https://medium.com/sentinel/introduction-of-on-chain-subscriptions-and-time-based-payments-sentinels-biggest-dvpn-protocol-a2b240199f18

The same logic will be applied to the upcoming Cosmos $ATOM dVPN, where the only currency accepted for payment of subscription will be $ATOM with in-app on-ramps for users purchasing $ATOM.

Users who are new to the Cosmos ecosystem will experience blazing fast $ATOM payments.

What is Sentinel Shield
The Sentinel $DVPN ecosystem is focused on providing unrestricted, end to end encrypted access in an open-source manner to the masses and there are many entities that do not want to see this happen.

Did you know that a Sentinel operating entity was mentioned by Russia Today as a threat?

DVPN IS CREATING A REVOLUTION

dVPN was relevant 10 years ago, and will be even more relevant 10 years in the future. Every single person in this ecosystem who has stood strong regardless of price or valuation is apart of this revolution.

Value will always reflect impact in the long run, hard work daily blu frens, glory is awaiting.

Sentinel's proposal on the Cosmos Hub has almost been approved! Proposal #940 allows for the IBC relayer between Cosmos and Sentinel to be re-established.

After the proposal passes, the upcoming Cosmos $ATOM dVPN can be launched with IBC $ATOM payments.

Early Alpha: Sentinel is THE first Web 3 ecosystem to have a working AI Data layer product. AI models need to learn from the internet on a daily basis in order to stay up to date. Anyone can host a data miner on their Android device (soon iOS and PC) and work can be sent to these miners which will retrieve the required data.

This data layer will train decentralized #AI models.

$DVPN to $1B

Sentinel has ALREADY established a network of thousands of #dVPN node providers all around the world who are servicing over 50k+ MAU.

http://independentdvpn.com built on Sentinel has crossed 200k+ users - one of the most successful Web 3 apps servicing the general consumer who knows nothing about blockchain.

http://stats.sentinel.co
http://map.sentinel.co

Sentinel has delivered one of the best truly decentralized retail consumer grade applications in the Web 3 ecosystem (http://shield.sentinel.co) and will execute the data layer with the same (if not greater) standards that the dVPN ecosystem has been built with.

http://shield.sentinel.co

Sentinel has ALREADY demonstrated one of the most technically sound use-cases of blockchain architecture with the first on-chain DHT which is about to cross 100m transactions (thanks to mother
@cosmoshub).

https://mintscan.io/sentinel/tx

The AI data layer implementation is about to be a walk in the park compared to dVPN technology (dVPN architecture vs proxy architecture).

The Sentinel dVPN protocol is accessible through CLI and so will the Data layer https://docs.sentinel.co/sentinel-cli.

Architectural docs being released soon.

Relevant Web 3 AI projects will be integrated.

Decentralized training is the future and Sentinel will be apart of it.

Sentinel will lead the AI data layer space.

Did you know that you can build your own #dVPN on Sentinel using either a Golang, JS, or Python SDK?
https://docs.sentinel.co/sdk

Sentinel is the first Web 3 protocol that allows for developers to build scalable retail consumer apps like http://Independentdvpn.com (over 200k download).

As a developer you have the ability to add nodes from Sentinel's thousands of community hosted #dVPN nodes into a custom on-chain subscription contract and then offer these nodes to your end-user in a one-click access structure.

http://map.sentinel.co

https://medium.com/sentinel/introduction-of-on-chain-subscriptions-and-time-based-payments-sentinels-biggest-dvpn-protocol-a2b240199f18

Developers have the ability to add any type of payment structure they want. Subscriptions can be paid with on-chain IBC compatible tokens, non IBC tokens, off-chain forms of payment such as credit cards, or with custom authorization processes (e.g free user authorization).
