Fantom is a new digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Fantom uses peer-to-peer technology over I2P/Tor/ClearNet to operate securly with no central authority (centralisation): managing transactions and issuing currency (FNX) are carried out collectively by the Fantom network. Fantom is the name of open source software which enables the use of the currency FNX.

Fantom utilises Blanknodes, Zerosend and InstantX to provide anonymous and near instant transaction confirmations.

Fantom only broadcasts transactions once unlike Bitcoin Core which rebroadcasts transactions which can be used to unmask and link IP addresses and transactions. However if your transaction does not successfully broadcast you can use the -resendtx console command to broadcast the transaction again.

Fantom implements Gavin Andresens signature cache optimisation from Bitcoin for significantly faster transaction validation.

Fantom uses ShadowChat from Shadow for encrypted, anonymous and secure messaging via the Fantom wallet network.

Fantom includes a completely decentralised marketplace, providing anonymity and escrow services for safe and fast trades.

Fantom includes an Address Index feature, based on the address index API (searchrawtransactions RPC command) implemented in Bitcoin Core but modified implementation to work with the Fantom codebase (PoS coins maintain a txindex by default for instance). Initialize the Address Index by running the -reindexaddr command line argument, it may take 10-15 minutes to build the initial index.

Zerosend Network Information Ported Masternodes from Darkcoin and rebranded as Blanknodes and modified to use stealth addresses. Darksend ported and rebranded as Zerosend. Utilisation of InstantX for instant transaction confirmation. Multiple Blanknodes can be ran from the same IP address.

Set the blanknodeprivkey to the result of running:

blanknode genkey //From the RPC console in the local wallet.

//If you are running your blanknode as a hidden service, replace YOUR_IP with your onion hostname (typically found in /var/lib/tor/YOURHIDDENSERVICENAME/hostname).

Port 31000 must be open.

//If you are using the hot/cold system where you are remotely activating your blanknode from your local wallet, you will also put these entries in your local (cold) wallet .conf:

blanknodeaddr=YOUR_IP:31000 blanknode=1 blanknodeprivkey=KEY GENERATED BY COMMAND

//Then, start the daemon on your remote blanknode, start your local wallet, and then you can start your blanknode from the RPC console:

blanknode start
