Sending Labs

Sending Labs is a decentralized communication platform that enhances interactions through secure, technology. It offers a range of tools for messaging, voice, and video communication, empowering users with privacy and control over their data. [1]

Overview

Sending Labs envisions a communication system where users can securely interact, send payments, and trade assets directly within chat platforms. As a product studio focused on decentralized, interoperable communications infrastructure, it aims to provide users with enhanced privacy, data control, and seamless integration between wallets and apps. Its first products, SendingNetwork and SendingMe, demonstrate this approach to social networking. [2]

Products

SendingNetwork

SendingNetwork is a decentralized, encrypted communication infrastructure that supports messaging and token or trading across applications. It provides a full-stack experience with a network, a decentralized identity system, end-to-end encryption, and an API system for interacting with and . Supported by a high-performance Edge Network, the system handles secure messaging, even in large group chats, and its customizable SDK allows developers to tailor features to their needs. Its architecture includes a Client tier for secure data storage, an Edge Network for message relay and caching, and a Core for managing user registration and incentivizing network miners. Proof of Relay and Proof of Availability mechanisms ensure efficient and reliable network performance. [2][3] wiki

Communication

SendingNetwork provides communication tools to enhance user interaction and engagement across applications. It supports end-to-end encrypted text messaging for private and group chats using technology, ensuring secure communication without relying on centralized servers. The platform extends to voice and video calls with infrastructure, live streaming, and AMA features, integrating transactions and smart contracts. Developers can also access interactive streaming, dynamic marketing tools, and analytics dashboards, creating secure, engaging, and flexible communication opportunities within applications. [4]

Social Graphs

Sending.Network (SDN) is a -based social network that prioritizes user control over data, privacy, and security, utilizing technology. Users manage their contact lists, social connections, and interactions through decentralized storage options like IPFS, backed by the if desired. SDN's social network includes "Squads," digital communities where users with shared interests can chat, share media, and trade within a decentralized environment. Three types of squads are available: Public, Private, and Squads, the latter requiring an token pass for access, giving users ownership of their squad relationships. [5] wiki

SendingMe

SendingMe is an encrypted and decentralized instant messaging app built on SendingNetwork. It is designed to meet community needs, such as token-gated chats or facilitating trades directly within conversations. It combines elements from both Web2 and messaging platforms, offering an intuitive interface for seamless communication and transactions and serving as a ready-to-use toolkit for teams. [2][6]

Wakey Whale

Wakey Whale is SendingMe's Telegram mini-app, where players earn game coins by tapping to keep a whale awake. Users can gain coins through tapping, completing quests, or leveling up, with additional rewards for inviting friends. Features include daily tap-to-earn mechanics, quests for accessory rewards, leaderboards tracking top players, and a bonus system for inviting friends. Players can also customize their whale with accessories created in partnership with brands like Bounty Bay and . [7]

Edge Router A1

The Edge Router A1 enables users to share unused household bandwidth through SendingNetwork's decentralized communication protocol, reducing dependence on centralized data centers. With a Qualcomm quad-core processor, WiFi 7, and a 2.5Gbps multi-gigabit interface, it facilitates decentralized , allowing users to earn income by sharing bandwidth. This device represents a step toward decentralized home networks, merging improved network performance with income-generating potential. [8]

Features

Proof of Relay

Sending Network's Proof of Relay is a designed to ensure decentralized communication without the need for third-party permissions. It operates independently using algorithms and validation protocols to facilitate message transmission with Proof of Availability, which continuously submits information to the . This mechanism supports network decentralization by allowing anyone to participate in relay without centralized approval and adjusts incentives to maintain network sustainability. Together with Proof of Availability, Proof of Relay ensures transparency and verifiability for transactions and communications. [9]

Proof of Availability

Proof of Availability is a in SendingNetwork that supports network sustainability by allowing Edge to engage in staking activities to generate and verify blocks, ensuring the network's security and stability. , selected from Edge , process transactions such as token transfers and executions, verifying their legality and preventing issues like double-spending. This system strengthens network security while addressing the challenges of decentralization in social communications and transactions, giving users greater control over their data. [10]

Nodes

wiki
SendingNetwork operates with three types of , each playing a specific role in maintaining the network. Edge are responsible for relaying and temporarily storing messages and are rewarded similarly to miners in other networks. WatchDog monitor Edge to ensure they function correctly, issuing reports if problems arise. Guardian oversee the work of both Edge and WatchDog , assisting with transaction processing and maintaining network operations. This structure ensures reliable message delivery, security, and rewards for participants. [11]

Edge Nodes

Edge in SendingNetwork's Relay Network layer forward messages and provide temporary message caching for offline clients. These nodes use the Proof of Relay mechanism, where messages are signed by the sender, relay, and recipient, ensuring message delivery without long-term data retention. To manage receipt data, Edge generate of their activities, verified by Guardian . This eliminates the need to share full transaction details across the network. High system performance and network connectivity are essential for maintaining network stability, though redundancy helps prevent downtime from disrupting message delivery. [12]

WatchDog Nodes

WatchDog in SendingNetwork allow participants to support network message relays and earn rewards by sharing bandwidth and storage. WatchDogs monitor Edge availability, issuing challenge messages and working with Guardian to ensure efficient network operation. Operators can earn rewards from a dedicated supply allocated over the next four years, with additional incentives for Edge and Guardian operators. WatchDog can run on standard devices, making participation accessible without requiring specialized equipment and offering contributors an easy way to engage with the decentralized communications network. [12][13] wiki

Guardian Nodes

Guardian serve as verifiers, transaction sequencers, and performance reviewers within the network. They validate from Edge and WatchDog , assess node performance based on Proof of Availability and WatchDog challenges, and assign rewards or penalties accordingly. They also submit transactions to the , where the sequencer processes them off-chain, compiling state transitions, , and relevant data. This information is then submitted to the main chain to ensure data availability at . [12]

Funding

On February 16th, 2023, Sending Labs raised $12.5M in a seed funding round co-led by Insignia Venture Partners, MindWorks Capital, and Signum Capital. Other investors included K3 Ventures, Lingfeng Innovation Fund, UpHonest Capital, and Aipollo Investment. [14]
