πŸ”€Intro

Jur is a Layer 1 blockchain built with the Substrate framework and that will become a parachain on the Polkadot Relay Chain through Cumulus.

Jur’s runtime will offer a set of pallets that will allow the creation of censorship-resistant communities and empower them with a stack that allows them to eventually evolve in more mature forms of communities.

Communities have a plethora of needs starting from:

  • aggregating members on a purpose/cause

  • being able to maintain a commonality over time

  • adding/removing members

  • managing economic activities within the community

  • facilitate trade between community members

  • provide methods to handle disagreements

Aside from this Jur has envisioned infrastructure bits for evolving online communities into more complex forms of community: a Nation and a State. Eventually Jur’s stack supports the entire journey of a community starting just as a set of members sharing common values, transitioning into a Nation based out of a territory (that can be both digital and physical) and a State with eventually its own government and diplomatic recognition by existing States.

Overview

Here is an overview of the current architecture of the Jur Stack which includes:

Further modules are currently under consideration.
