Blocklancer freelance on the blockchain

Blocklancer Process

At Blocklancer, we apply various processes. There are processes for offering jobs, applying for jobs, conducting reviews and token holder tribunals. In this section, we will introduce the most important Blocklancer process.

The BPMN model in Figure 1 illustrates the job and offer bidding process for the job. It can be seen that at first the client creates a new job. The client attaches a deadline for the newly created job. This means that the client must choose the bid before the deadline is reached. After a job offer, casual workers are able to bid for the job. The freelancer offer contains the salary that the freelancer wants to get paid for this job. When a client chooses a freelancer and his offer, a contract is made. Work contract ties freelancer salary, so payment of freelancer will be guaranteed

Figure 2 illustrates that the client regains his ETH, if the freelancer can not complete the work within the time limit.

System architecture

Blocklancer is the first decentralized and serverless job market. We do so by combining existing technologies like Ethereum and IPFS. Because blockchain technology is still in the architecture development phase we are also implementing our own solutions.

Core Architecture

Blocklancer is a compound of three main components:

1 Ethereum: Ethereum is the backbone of Blocklancer. Smart contracts are implemented for the Ethereum Solidarity programming language. Ethereum is needed as a distributed blocklancer ledger.

2 IPFS: IPFS allows the storage of distributed files. Because it is too expensive to store all the data in the Ethereal blockchain, the main part of the data is stored in IPFS.

3 Databases: Because we provide a great user experience, job request requests must be very fast. The main problem with blockchain technology is that the data queries are too slow and expensive. It is therefore necessary to somehow store data in a database that can query.

ICO

Buying our Blocklancer Token will be open to everyone in the form of a crowd by putting Ethereum into a smart contract. If you do not have Ethereal, you can convert other currencies through a third-party conversion service on the main page. During the first hour of sale, the token will be available at a price of 15,000 LNC to 1 ETH (0.02 $ per LNC). After one hour, the rate changed to 10,000 LNC to 1 ETH (0.025 $ per LNC) for the first 10 million Token Blocklancers and this rate dropped by 1% for every 10 million tokens sold. 10% token will be saved by the developer and 2% is reserved for Bounty.

35% of the money raised from sales will be used to improve the Blocklancer platform. 10% of the funds will go into general administration purposes, 40% is reserved for marketing costs to improve our platform reputation and to improve crypto reception. 3% will be used for our IT infrastructure and 2% for all required software licenses. The last 10% is intended as a backup for other matters; A financial buffer, so let's say.

Future

Our main goal is to become the biggest player in the freelance market, but to achieve this we need the money earned from our ICO to finance our project marketing and to invest into the further development and upgrading of our platform. We want to get our name out there so we can reach not only technically experienced people but also ordinary people. For ease of adoption, we want to make our platform as easy and intuitive to use as much as possible. Simplicity is one of our core principles, because reaching the masses is possible only with an easy-to-use interface. The experience of using Blocklancer should be one without unnecessary interruption.
For the end of this year, we plan to include anonymous decentralized storage and communications networks for these projects. Our long-term goal is to connect our Blocklancer platform to real-world services and make it accessible and usable for everyone. We have also conceptualized our platform into an easy-to-expand base layer for other people to use in their own projects. See below for our project roadmap.
