### What is {pPOP} {P}roof-{O}f-{P}erformance}? <a href="#e5cb" id="e5cb"></a>

*“pPOP” is the official acronym for “***p***ublic-***P***roof-***O***f-***P***erformance”*

*pPOP or public-Proof-Of-Performance is a novel distributed systems consensus mechanism designed by BitAstir.*

*The consensus mechanism derives a “universally true” state of a distributed system based on behavioral socio-economic primitives that have been extrapolated & found consistent in the logical/mathematical world of theory as well as the physiological world of biology.*

### What does pPOP do for BitAstir? <a href="#id-8e81" id="id-8e81"></a>

> The most direct explanation of the use of pPOP within BitAstir is as an algorithm for the extrapolation of data in a way that could not have been done without the advancements in technology (names crypto & blockchain); In a way that is optimized for (mimics the natural biorhythm of material reality.)

### What Data points are used for pPOP? <a href="#e914" id="e914"></a>

> Bitastir leveraged yet another novel design element in the establishment of its ecosystem, that being a cross-categorization & weight based system for organizing & operation on Data in a stateless manner. This design approach will utilize data points a multitude of times within necessary context & if/when needed would not at all relate.\
> Thus, the pPOP data logic is best understood through the lens of a mental matrix;
>
> It is a hierarchical-cluster of:\
> → 11 base points,\
> → 8 dependencies &

### What is pPOP used to Establish within BitAstir? <a href="#id-4f31" id="id-4f31"></a>

> pPOP is one of BitAstir’s most fundamental pillars in the establishment of all the necessary primitives across all of its products. Everything ranging from an athletes developmental curve to the global state of the network. It is the origination point for data utilized in:\
> \- SportFI\
> \- ACMn\
> \- Infusion\
> \- Staking\
> \- Governance\
> \- etc…..

### Will the pPOP consensus be Opened to the Public? <a href="#id-4bec" id="id-4bec"></a>

> Yes.
>
> As a Decentralized organization, BitAstir intends to open all of its developments & findings back to world in the form of OPEN SOURCE soft/hard ware. The Code will be publicized at a later point in the project, only & only after successful public mainnet trials.
