Litepaper ForuAI

1. Overview: ForuAI Protocol

As we continue to neglect our data, with each passing day, its value is increasingly usurped by large corporations that exploit it for free.

ForuAI is pioneering a transformative approach to Decentralised identity(DiD) and data monetization by empowering users with unprecedented control over their personal data.

ForuAI offers users the solution to give the autonomy to choose what data they store, shifting control from large corporations to a secure user-driven environment. Users are immediately rewarded in the form of tokens. Our aim is to empower users to dictate the handling of their data, with the added benefit of personalized services tailored to their preferences, opening up a whole new digital experience.

Combining blockchain technology, advanced AI systems, and SSO, ForuAI ensures data security. Never before has a project tackled this global challenge of user data privacy (across web 2 & 3) on such a scale.

This litepaper outlines ForuAI's vision, technological foundation, strategic roadmap, and detailed tokenomics, highlighting our unique solution to reshaping the digital landscape with user empowerment at its core.

Foreword by Founder

"As the former CEO and founder of Indonesia's largest digital exchange, I've witnessed firsthand the transformative power of technology. Yet, with this convenience comes a profound responsibility—especially concerning data privacy and security. This issue transcends borders; it's a global concern that impacts us all. At ForuAI, we're not just creating a platform; we're championing a movement to ensure that individuals retain control over their personal data and are rightfully compensated for its use. Our commitment is rooted in the principles of Consent, Credit, and Compensation.

We recognize that there is no use hoping for people to sign up for highly invasive or niche verification systems. We must meet them where they are and develop systems that ensure real-world use cases. This is about integrating ethical practices into everyday digital interactions to create a viable, user-friendly platform that serves genuine needs. We invite you to join us in this critical mission—because the integrity of our digital futures starts with us. By making AI accessible to all, we can make sure no one gets left behind in this AI war."

- Kai (Ex-Founder/CEO of Tokocrypto & TKO)

“Data privacy will evolve into data ownership rights in 2024.”

The global Consumer Data Platform Market size is projected to grow from $5.1 billion in 2023 and $7.4 billion in 2024 to $28.2 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 39.9% during the forecast period (2024-2028)[1]

Currently, there are two extremes of data management which are not optimal. On one hand, we leave our data to Big Tech and let them exploit our data for free. On the other hand, we need to live like a recluse to refuse any website that tracks our cookies.

What if there is an option in between that empowers the user with Data Compensation, Proof of humanity, and Hyper Personalisation?

Introducing Foruai: The AI Driven DID that Empowers Data Ownership through Data compensation, Hyper Personalisation, & Proof of Humanity

Data Compensation

3. Proposed Roadmap

4. Blockchain Architecture

Built upon a secure and scalable blockchain, ForuAI leverages cryptographic techniques, to ensure network security and data privacy.

At its core is the ForuAI Identity Protocol, a consensus mechanism that validates and manages Decentralised identities securely. The architecture is modular, allowing for seamless integration of Layer 3 solutions and alternative virtual machines to support diverse use cases and applications.

Additionally, interoperability is a key feature, enabling seamless connectivity with other blockchain networks for enhanced functionality and broader adoption.

4.1 Tokenomics and Ecosystem of ForuAI

The ForuAI platform integrates a token-centric economic model that is foundational to its operation and growth. The native token, FORU, serves multiple functions within the ecosystem: it acts as a medium of exchange, a unit of account, and a tool for governance. This multifaceted utility ensures that stakeholders are aligned and incentivized towards the collective success of the platform.

Token Utility

Transactional Utility: FORU tokens are used for transactions within the ForuAI ecosystem, including but not limited to payment for services, access to premium features, and remuneration for data sharing. This usage underpins the demand for tokens as the ecosystem scales and diversifies its service offerings.

Incentive Mechanism: Users earn FORU tokens by contributing their data in a privacy-preserving manner. This incentivizes active participation and ongoing contribution to the platform, aligning user activities with ecosystem growth.

Governance: FORU token holders have the right to participate in governance decisions through a decentralized voting mechanism. This includes decisions on feature developments, token supply adjustments, and strategic direction, ensuring a democratic and user-centric governance model.

Governance Structure

The governance framework of ForuAI employs a decentralized model, where token holders wield significant influence over the direction and policies of the platform. Governance actions are facilitated through proposals and voting mechanisms, where:

Proposal Submission: Any token holder can submit proposals for consideration by the community, provided they hold a minimum threshold of tokens.

Voting Process: Decisions are made through a transparent voting process where the number of tokens directly corresponds to voting power.

Implementation: Upon successful voting, proposals are implemented by the core team, with oversight from the community to ensure adherence to the agreed-upon directives.

Economic Sustainability

The economic model of ForuAI is crafted to support growth while maintaining stability. The token supply is capped, which mitigates inflationary pressures and preserves value. Transaction fees within the platform are redistributed to support ongoing operations, fund new development, and reward users and stakeholders, creating a self-sustaining economic cycle.

5. The ForuAI Solution

No more fancy machines for scanning retinas or palms.

Users securely connect their social media, transaction history, and browsing data under strict consent protocols, verified by AI. They are given real world incentives to share their data with FORU token, promoting active and ongoing participation.
