Intro to BlockMail

E2e encrypted blockchain mail that is resistant to data mining, phishing, spoofing, spam and the theft of digital identity or data.

Blockchain Mail

Blockchain Mail (or “BlockMail”) is a communication platform that leverages blockchain networks to facilitate peer-to-peer message delivery. In this model, each mail is represented as a blockchain transaction, introducing an unprecedented level of trust and security, and ensuring mail communication immutability and traceability.

By recording mail checksum, L1/L2s power the on-chain mailing, while data and media file attachments are exchanged via decentralized storage.

Note: We refer to blockchain-based Mail as BlockMail. This framework supports on-chain communication, with the level of decentralization matching that of the underlying network. Hence, terms like decentralized Mail, or dMail, are also applicable. However, given potential questions about some blockchain networks' decentralization, we prefer BlockMail. Ultimately, the choice of naming comes down to user preference.

Technicals

With its unique on-chain “1 BlockMail = 1 L1/L2 transaction” model, its decentralization is directly tied to the underlying public blockchain network. Built on the [Mail] smart contract, OCC SDK, PX decentralized storage service, and client white-label framework, the OCC-based BlockMail UI offers a distinctive UX and serves as a sandbox for this new on-chain communication technology.

Note: Lite-encrypted JSON objects are created to hold BlockMail metadata. The link to this metadata and checksum is recorded on the chain as a blockchain transaction; 1 BlockMail = 1 L1-TX. The on-chain model introduces an unprecedented level of trust and security and ensures the immutability and traceability of message/data communication.
