About
Holo (HOT)
Holo (HOT) powers a distributed cloud hosting marketplace for peer-to-peer applications built on Holochain, an innovative framework designed as an alternative to traditional blockchain technology. Holochain aims to solve scalability and adaptability issues inherent in many blockchain architectures by shifting from a data-centric model to an agent-centric one. This means each user runs their own secure, tamper-resistant ledger, enabling intrinsic data validation without requiring network-wide consensus for every interaction. This approach significantly enhances efficiency and reduces computational overhead, fostering a truly decentralized network. The Holochain framework enables the creation of hApps (Holochain applications) that are scalable, fast, and more energy-efficient than many dApps on conventional blockchains.
The HOT token, an ERC-20 token, currently serves as an IOU that will be swappable for HoloFuel upon the mainnet launch. HoloFuel is designed as a mutual credit currency, specifically for paying for hosting services provided by HoloPort operators and other hosts within the Holo network. This utility token facilitates microtransactions and access to computational resources, underpinning the economic model of this decentralized hosting ecosystem. Holo aims to bridge the gap between the existing centralized internet and the emerging decentralized web, providing essential Web3 infrastructure and empowering individuals by giving them control over their own data and applications within a peer-to-peer framework. It represents a significant step towards a more distributed and user-centric digital landscape.

Frequently asked questions
-
What are the common methods to buy Holo (HOT) with Nigerian Naira (NGN)?
To purchase Holo (HOT) with NGN, the most popular fiat on-ramp is through Peer-to-Peer (P2P) trading platforms on major cryptocurrency exchanges. Users can directly trade NGN for stablecoins like USDT via Nigerian bank transfer and then use that digital asset to buy HOT on the spot market. This method is widely used due to local banking regulations. -
What makes Holo's agent-centric architecture different from traditional blockchain?
Unlike traditional blockchains that require global consensus, Holochain uses a Distributed Hash Table (DHT) where each user (or 'agent') maintains their own secure ledger. This agent-centric computing model allows for massive scalability for holographic apps (hApps) because data processing is distributed among users, not bottlenecked by a single global state. HOT acts as a placeholder token for Holofuel, the currency that will power this peer-to-peer hosting network. -
What is the relationship between the ERC-20 HOT token and native Holofuel?
Holo (HOT) is currently an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, serving as an IOU that will be swappable 1:1 for Holofuel upon the mainnet launch. Holofuel is the native, mutual-credit currency of the Holochain network, designed specifically as a micro-currency to compensate hosts for providing computing power to run hApps. This token swap is a critical milestone for the ecosystem. -
Do I need KYC verification to trade the NGN/HOT pair?
Yes, virtually all reputable cryptocurrency exchanges that facilitate NGN fiat on-ramps, including P2P markets, require KYC/AML (Know Your Customer/Anti-Money Laundering) compliance. You will typically need to provide a government-issued ID and sometimes proof of address to securely trade digital assets and connect your Nigerian bank account. -
What kind of wallet do I need to store my HOT tokens securely?
Since Holo (HOT) is an ERC-20 token, you can store it in any digital wallet that supports the Ethereum network. This includes popular software wallets like MetaMask or Trust Wallet, as well as more secure hardware wallets. Always ensure you have sole control over your private keys and store your seed phrase offline.
