It's allowing you to maintain full control over your funds, credentials and data. 🚀 - [Sovereign ID Layer](https://docs.artis.eco/about/sovereign-operating-system/decentralized-id-layer.md): Decentralized identifiers (DID's) and Verifiable Credentials are standardized by the W3C and build an important foundation for the Web3.0. - [DID Registration](https://docs.artis.eco/about/sovereign-operating-system/decentralized-id-layer/did-registration.md): Every organization and device which issues Verifiable Credentials and signs transactions needs their unique, fully self-sovereign DID in a public register. - [Verifiable Credential Management](https://docs.artis.eco/about/sovereign-operating-system/decentralized-id-layer/verifiable-credential-management.md): Verifiable Credentials (VC's) need to be issued, stored, transferred and verified and essential parts will be linked to the ARTIS blockchain. - [Transaction Relayer](https://docs.artis.eco/about/sovereign-operating-system/decentralized-id-layer/transaction-relayer.md): Most companies are not familiar with the management of coins (e.g. ATS) to pay for transaction fees. This is the point, where a transaction relayer is needed. - [Decentralized Storage Layer](https://docs.artis.eco/about/sovereign-operating-system/decentralized-storage-layer.md): As it was stated in the very beginning of the Ethereum ecosystem - it needs a blockchain, storage and messaging to build unstoppable applications. - [IPFS](https://docs.artis.eco/about/sovereign-operating-system/decentralized-storage-layer/ipfs.md): A peer-to-peer hypermedia protocol designed to make the web faster, safer, and more open. - [SWARM](https://docs.artis.eco/about/sovereign-operating-system/decentralized-storage-layer/swarm-ipfs-storage.md): Storage and communication infrastructure for self-sovereign digital society back-end stack for the decentralized web. - [Use Cases](https://docs.artis.eco/about/use-cases.md): There are thousands of applications within the energy sector and the ARTIS Ecosystem is developed to serve them best. - [Energy Communities & P2P Trading](https://docs.artis.eco/about/use-cases/communities-and-trading.md): Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) and Citizen Energy Communities (CECs) are a new market player in the EU. - [Asset Tokenization](https://docs.artis.eco/about/use-cases/asset-tokenization.md): Massive investments are needed to fund the energy transition towards renewables. - [Data Marketplace](https://docs.artis.eco/about/use-cases/data-marketplace.md): Data has become a new commodity and generates massive value in aggregated form. - [Community Currencies](https://docs.artis.eco/about/use-cases/community-currencies.md): Energy is the new currency. - [Physical Internet Platform](https://docs.artis.eco/about/use-cases/physical-internet-platform.md): The global transport sector accounts for 22% of GHG emissions of which 34% can be accounted to trucks \[1]. - [Multimodal Traveling Platform](https://docs.artis.eco/about/use-cases/mulit-modal-travelling-platform.md): Travel is a massive emitter of carbon dioxide and other harmful pollutants, which will therefore change towards green travel with higher convenience and security. - [Satellite Monitored Carbon Sequestration](https://docs.artis.eco/about/use-cases/satellite-monitored-carbon-sequestration.md): Regenerative agriculture is likely the only non-technical solution to bring climate change under control. - [Comparisons](https://docs.artis.eco/about/comparisons.md): We present here comparisons with other blockchain networks, if we were asked to work on them and there is some sort of connection or competition over use cases. - [ARTIS 2.0](https://docs.artis.eco/about/comparisons/artis-2.0.md): ARTIS 1.0 <> ARTIS 2.0 Comparison - [xDai Chain](https://docs.artis.eco/about/comparisons/xdai-chain.md): ARTIS 1.0 <> xDai Chain Comparison - [R\&D](https://docs.artis.eco/about/r-and-d.md): Articles and publications in connection with ARTIS. - [Honey Badger BFT - Testing (SonnWende+ Project)](https://docs.artis.eco/about/r-and-d/honeybadger-bft-testing-sonnwende+-project.md): Authors: Thomas Zeinzinger, David Forstenlechner, Thomas Haller , Dietmar Hofer - [ARTIS Energy Efficiency](https://docs.artis.eco/about/r-and-d/artis-energy-efficiency.md): Authors: Thomas Zeinzinger & Dietmar Hofer - [Wallets](https://docs.artis.eco/about/wallets.md): Wallets come in many shapes and forms and are either natively supporting ARTIS or can be connected via custom RPC configurations often offered for Ethereum wallets.
