Rangers Protocol

Rangers Protocol is a future-oriented virtual world blockchain infrastructure. It combines Internet protocols, NFT, EVM and distributed network protocols, supports NFT.

Rangers Protocol caters to all entrepreneurs and aspiring developers, allowing them to try out content creation, cross-chain operations, and application development within the Rangers Protocol ecosystem.

In the 11th year of Bitcoin’s existence, the relentless trend of DeFi (decentralized finance) has led to a growing awareness of the value of blockchain’s financial attributes. In the first two months of 2021, NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) and the explosion of other non-financial fields have greatly increased the value of the blockchain technology application. Just as Ethereum at the beginning of its creation focused on the application layer and provided for three types of application representation: financial, semi-financial and non-financial, blockchain technology can not only achieve financial innovation, but is also expected to improve the industry. computational efficiency fundamentally.

While Ethereum’s unshakable first-mover advantage makes it the first choice for various DeFi applications with vital financial characteristics, Ethereum is not “perfect.” A few years ago, a decentralized application called CryptoKitties caused the Ethereum network to become overloaded, almost paralyzed. These circumstances make Ethereum not a good choice, especially for gaming applications that require more storage and frequent user interaction. At this point Rangers Protocol comes along.

The Rangers 1.0 protocol created by MixMarvel is based on the scalable Ethereum Layer-2 solution that was originally applied to the leading game on the HyperDragons blockchain. After several iterations and functional updates, Rangers Protocol 2.0 is about to go live. As a high-performance chain group that can realize the interoperability of multi-chain contracts of the EVM system, Rangers Protocol 2.0 combines internetwork protocols, NFTs, and EVMs and expands on this basis. It allows developers to freely create complex decentralized applications and adapt them to various scenarios, providing users with an Internet application experience. If the current Ethereum DeFi ecosystem is seen as a financial hub, Rangers Protocol is meant to be an entertainment hub.

Rangers Protocol solves the problems of high-frequency transactions with an efficient VRF + BLS consensus mechanism; solves the problem of data heterogeneity with a cross-chain solution based on a relay chain; solves the diversification problem with the horizontal extension method, and solves the interoperability problem with real-time transaction confirmation. And when frequent interactions are no longer limited by high transaction costs and slow confirmation rates, blockchain games in the true sense become possible. After all, most of the experience of so-called blockchain games at the moment is just a monotonous collection.

The Rangers Protocol will also include standard protocols such as ERC-721 to regulate NFTs as the standard for digital assets. Based on the ERC-721 standard, Rangers Protocol expands its features to include lifecycle management, a new data reuse framework, and dapp-based data authority management. These features enable the goals of the Rangers Protocol to be achieved by integrating various underlying technologies. Rangers Protocol aims to be a virtual world blockchain infrastructure that can integrate financial, semi-financial, and non-financial decentralized applications rather than just creating a playground on the network.

In the blue ocean of blockchains, Ethereum can be seen as a huge island, Polkadot as an archipelago, and Rangers Protocol as a free trading port. The island of the Ethereum ecosystem has various applications, such as shops in the island's huge bazaar. However, its core infrastructure is still relatively simple. The entire island is an independent closed ecology. If developers want to expand, they will need to build a flyover or something similar of their choice. The ecological archipelago of Polkadot contains a mother island in the center and small islands connected to the mother island by underwater tunnels through which all traffic and people move between the small islands and pass through the mother island as a staging station. The Rangers Protocol Free Trade Port is connected to the mainland. It can be directly connected to the outside world through channels. Logistics, people and capital flows along the routes can also freely interact with each other. The port also has an infrastructure similar to a shopping street, suitable for large stores. Developers can directly develop applications according to their needs.

MixMarvel plays a unique role in the free trade port. It looks like the first entertainment city in the port area. This will attract a large number of users from the mainland to the deep blue ocean of blockchain.

Compared to, for example, Immutable and Ronin, which are currently focusing on the NFT market and streamlining the non-financial application experience on the Ethereum network, Rangers Protocol has natural advantages in self-sustaining cross-chain transmission, layout, and interoperability. Due to its compatibility with the Ethereum EVM, the Rangers protocol is very convenient for “porting” existing Ethereum decentralized applications. With a more open environmental scheme and a full developer reward mechanism, developers may prefer the Rangers protocol.

While DeFi is booming, financial applications are not everything in the blockchain world. On the contrary, the prospects for the development of non-financial applications, which are still relatively "naive", deserve more attention. The development of the Rangers protocol could lead to a new wave of craze in the blockchain world.
