Sentivate is a project that aims to replace core components of the internet such as HTTP and DNS with new protocols like UDSP. It also plans to develop hybrid apps and its own browser. Sentivate sees the current internet infrastructure as unable to handle future bandwidth demands. Its solution includes new protocols that are more efficient and a hybrid centralized/decentralized architecture. The SNTVT and future VIAT tokens will be used for network transactions, but there are concerns about token utility given Sentivate's large holdings and current token concentration. Further details on VIAT are still to come in an upcoming whitepaper.

2. Executive Summary
• Replacement of current core components of the internet as HTTP and DNS
• Hybrid Apps (hApps) combining benefits of traditional apps and dApps
• Development of own browser with enhanced web experience
• New certificate system would make passwords obsolete
Highlights
Risk & Concerns
• Whitepaper 2.0 still to be released. Thus, purpose and magnitude of utility
cannot be properly assessed yet.
• If Sentivate is successfull, it will save companies worldwide billions of
dollars. However, it is unclear whether this massive value creation can
translate into utility for the VIAT token as the current internet infrastructure
was not able to monetize their value creation.

Sentivate is a project of the software company
Arity that was founded in 2014. Sentivate
describes itself as a hybrid internet composed
of centralized and decentralized components.
Sentivate was designed to be a viable and
realistic replacement for the existing web
infrastructure.

3. What problem does it solve?
Fundamental Problem: Bandwidth Crisis
• Bandwidth, which is the amount of data that can be transmitted in a fixed amount of
time (expressed in bytes per second (bps)), is in a crisis. Given the exponential rise
of data generation and higher demands for data transmission (simple example is HD
video streaming), data pipes need to be continuously repaired and expanded to
cope with the current challenges. However, the current infrastructure won’t be able
to cope with the demands of the future society.
• In the coming decades, our world population will continue to grow and the people
in emerging economies will catch up to our current way and adopt a lot more
mobile devices. While this growth in demand for bandwidth could be handled with
the current infrastructure and system, we are not prepared for the rise of the Internet
of Things. In an economy where cars and household devices communicate with each
other, a reliable, fast, and secure data transmission is required.
• The protocols of the world wide web were not designed to handle this unparalleled
volume of data that keeps growing at an ever rising rate.
• Massive pressure placed on the current infrastructure would slow down the web,
which would be obviously detrimental for economic activity.

4. What problem does it solve?
Technological Problem: HTTP & DNS
• The HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP), the foundation of our
data communication for the World Wide Web, and the
Domain Name System (DNS), a networking support protocol
that primarily translates domain names into numerical IP
addresses, were built a long time ago in Web history.
• When these protocols where developed, today’s and modern
demands for the web could hardly have been accounted for
• Sentivate sees DNS & HTTP inherently broken, they have poor
scalability, are dreadfully slow, lack modern features, eat up
bandwidth, and cost consumers & businesses billions.
• New features require real-time change feeds, more
bandwidth, speed, security, and bi-directional communication.
Problem: Decentralized Web
• While the current centralized internet infrastructure wont’t
be able to cope with the upcoming challenges in the near
future, Sentivate is also opposes a completely
decentralized web (Web 3.0) as suggested by many
blockchain enthusiasts.
• Sentivate believes that a solely decentralized web would
accelerate the bandwidth crisis since trades are
happening in nanoseconds and our economy would
collapse if seconds or minutes were required for
verification and broadcasting of trades.
• Both topologies have their use cases but together they
are a solution to an ever growing problem that has gone
unchecked.

5. Sentivate’s solution
Solution: UDSP
• Sentivate attempts to completely replace our current internet architecture around HTTP with an entirely new protocol – the Universal
Data Stream Protocol (UDSP)
• UDSP would ensure high-throughput, low-latency (low amount of time for data transmission), and high reliability
• Thus this proto col would be prepared to services to needs of an economy where machine-to-machine communication and the
internet of things is predominant
• The packets are specifically designed to be easily digested and quickly utilized. UDSP is for low-latency high-throughput
communication making it ideal for dispersed computing and parallel computing environments which require dynamic changes to
the protocol.
Features
UDSP features latest technological advancements that save bandwidth and/or increase performance such as
• 0-RTT: Zero Round Trip Time Resumption, which dramatically speeds up resumed connections, leading to a faster and smoother web
experience for web sites that are visited regularly
• Multihoming: A device, host, or network is normally connected to just one network. However, it can be useful to connect a host or
network to multiple networks which enhances reliability and performance.
• Multiplexing: Combining signals into one signal over a shared medium. The aim is to share a scarce resource.
• IPv6 Readiness: IP addresses currently use the version 4 labelling which only allows for roughly 4 billion different IP addresses.
Internet protocol version 6 is a new labelling system of computer networks that allows for a virtually infinite number of IP addresses
(340 trillion trillion trillion)

6. Sentivate’s solution
Mitigation of DDOS attacks
• A denial-of-service attack (DoS attack) is a cyber-attack
in which a bad actor floods the target with superfluous
requests to overload the system and thus disrupts
services for users.
• UDSP would mitigate this problem by having optional
puzzles included in the packets (i.e. bits of data) which
allow providers and solvers to earn VIAT.
• The puzzles can vary which make it a Dynamic-Proof-of-
Work
• Both parties (client and domain) are credited with VIAT if
client solves the puzzle, whereas the reward split can be
adjusted to 100% in favour of the domain if the server is
under a DDOS attack. The bad actor would suffer a
financial loss for little gain.
• Through these optional puzzles an incentive scheme is
created that would encourage the parties involved to act
in good faith

7. Product & Vision
Universal Identity System
Identity Registrar Identity Certificates
• Service which signs certificates & is the first layer of protection for the network.
• Protection of the network by filtering faulty certificates, Sybil Attacks, and
nefarious actors.
• Safeguard that malicious certificates aren’t signed which allows services to
efficiently deny their connection attempts. False signatures can be denied by
the DIS and therefore potentially protect a service and save some of its
resources.
• A decentralized network and dynamic blockchain will be leveraged to help
validate newly submitted certificates for signing
• If the certificated is successfully vetted by the network the IR signs the
certificate and then it can be successfully used by services and the DIS
• During the initial handshake, the first packet contains the certificates
required to establish a UDSP bi-directional stream
• If signatures are successfully validated the rest of the handshake process
continues.
• Identity Certificates are documents which act as a way to cryptographically
authenticate yourself on the network and thus act like a passport and a form of
identification on the Internet.
• The Identity Certificate allows for instant signup, login, and purchase of an item.
• It also removes the need to create a username or password. Using keypairs
instead of a traditional username and password relies on cryptography for
enhanced privacy and security. Sentivate keypairs act as identity for the internet.
• The certificates are signed by a central or acting authority known as the Identity
Registrar. There are multiple Ephemeral Identity Certificates which are attached
and signed by a Master Identity Certificate and the Identity Registrar.
• Certificates allow the community to establish a decentralized reputation
blockchain, which can publicly record good & bad behavior associated with
specific certificates. A honeypot can be used to block known bad actors from
accessing a service.
• In addition, Master and Ephemeral certificates (short-term certificates) are
intergrated in the network

8. Product & Vision
Universal Domain System
Domain Registrar Domain Certificates
Management side of the Domain Information System
Functions
• Used to buy a domain, register a domain, and manage
domain certificates.
• Signing of certificates associated with the hostname
and provides upload access for the public certificates
• Ensuring that an Identity Certificate is provided and
connected to the account which is used to purchase the
domain with Viat.The Domain Registrar is the
management side of the Domain Information System.
The DR provides the DIS with the certificates used to
respond to incoming hostname information requests.
Features
• Updating of certificate details in real-time
• Instant pushing of certificate details to DIS servers
around the globe
• Functionality similar to cloudfare
Domain Info System
Responsible for returning domain-specific information
from human-readable hostnames.
Differences between DIS & DNS (current system)
• DIS is encrypted by default via UDSP
• DIS also returns the domain’s certificates which
include cryptographic details & routing information
• 0-RTT is possible without requiring the client to have
visited the domain prior
• The DIS can also return geocentric routing
information allowing clients to take advantage of a
host’s potentially geographically distributed global
network. Clients can then quickly use the fastest
route to the host’s servers in respect to their location
Documents which hold the routing, cryptography, and
additional details for the hostname
• The routing information is the destination’s IP
address
• The cryptography is the Master and Ephemeral
keypairs to validate and initiate a bi-directional
UDSP connection to the origin server
• Additional details such as the hostnames which are
assigned to the document, cross-origin policy, 0-RTT
support, Geo-location based IP, and others are
available.

9. Product & Vision
Hybrid Apps (hApps)
• Hybrid Apps are self-constructing streamed single-page-applications.
Applications are designed in a highly modular fashion. Application’s
assets are contained in their own file and are streamed to the client on
an as needed basis. Only exactly when the client needs the resource is
it fetched and delivered.
• Server loads and bandwidth is drastically decreased with this
methodology as now the client is only pulling exactly what is needed.
• Thus, hybrid apps have high availability, scalability, and more
bandwidth for real-time dynamic content.
• hApps are streamed and built over time much like a bridge building
itself as you walk across. Only one initial page load takes place and
thereafter pages are dynamically built as needed similar to Single-
page-apps.

SNTVT ownership Circulating supply
• 4.2 billion SNTVT is distributed over 3811 addresses
• The Airdrop was due to the bear market not successfull at all
• As a result, the current token distribution severely deviates
from the distribution targeted by Sentivate
• Sentivate‘s main wallet holds the majority of the tokens (67%)
• The circulating supply is around ~1.4 billion SNTVT
• The ownership of SNTVT is highly concentrated with the
Top 100 addresses holding more than 85% of the
circulating supply
• This is not surprising given that Sentivate conducted a
private rather than a public sale

13. Tokenomics - Summary
Comments
Critique
In depth details about VIAT will be released in Sentivate next
whitepaper on VIAT. It will highlight explanations on the Block
Verification System that ensures transparency and validity in the
Sentivate system of centralized servers and decentralized
nodes. In addition we expect more information on the smart
contract feature within the Sentivate network and details how
VIAT is used within that system.
It remains to be seen whether Sentivate is able to design
economics for VIAT to capture the value created and makes
UDSP a fat protocol, which would ultimately reward investors.
• Confusing information on coins on their website
• Limited use case of current SNTVT token
• No estimation of market size that will be served by VIAT
• However, we expect these issues to be addressed in their
next whitepaper about the VIAT token
Fat protocol
In an interesting piece of research, Joel Monegro lays out the
„fat protocol thesis“ about blockchains and compares it to the
web. While the protocols of the internet such as TCP/IP, HTTP,
SMTP (email), etc. created unprecedented value that paved the
way for our digital and mobile society, these protocols were not
able to monetize the value they created. In fact applications on
top of these protocols (Amazon, Facebook, Netflix, etc) were
able to monetize the value created by these protocols.
Monegro hypothesizes that it will be the other way around for
blockchains as the protocols and the their network can only be
used by transacting with their native cryptocurrencies.

15. Price analysis
• There was barely any trading of SNTVT until mid of April
• SNTVT has virtually zero correlation with ETH so far
• The rise in trading volume made the daily volatility (measured
over the last month) drastically decline from highs at 70% down
to 20-30%
• So far, liquidity and volume were highly supportive for SNTVT‘s
price, resulting in a 4-5x return from January and ~10x in the
last 2 months

16. Roadmap
February March April May June July 2020-2021
Keymaster
• Generate keypairs & identity
certificates for the Sentivate network
via a Node module
• Ephemeral certificates provide wallet
creation, service/website access, and
are required to establish a UDSP
stream
• Certificates will need to be signed
when the network is up
Shopkeeper
• Users can begin to generate domain specific
certificates
• Domains can be purchased and reserved
ahead of schedule via SNTVT (30% off), BTC,
ETH, BCH, LTC, & BNB. When the DIS goes,
certificates can be validated
• Discord members have a total of 40% off on
domain reserves when purchasing with
SNTVT
Genesis
Client & Server NODE.JS Module
Prototype with ALPHA release of UDSP –
Client to server communication
prototype that will allow fast prototyping
of components for the network like the
DIS
Domain system
• Replacing the Domain Name System with the
Domain Information System (DIS)
• Sentivate’s DIS provides the cryptographic
certificates from sites to the DIS
• The DIS responds with routing information &
cryptographic parameters all in the form of a
cryptographically verifiable domain certificate
Identity System
• In order to establish cryptographic trust an
Identity Registrar must be fully operational to
protect against Sybil attacks and sign off on
new identity certificates entering the network
• When a client attempts to connect to a service
they must include their Identity Certificate
• Service can quickly compute a set of shared
keys and establish a connection
Browser
• The Identity systems will be integrated into the browser in the form
of profiles making it easy for everyone to use
• Huge focus on providing a new developer experience on the
Universal Web
• Browser is capable of viewing both the WWW & the UW
• UW domains don’t require the protocol info

19. Conclusion x
Unique selling point
Sentivate is tackling a real and urging problem. A succesfull implementation of UDSP would truly benefit entire
mankind. Sentivate well identified benefits and shortcomings of both centralized and decentralized internet
architecture and attempts to combine the strenghts of both systems within a hybrid blockchain.
High upside potential
Currently SNTVT is sitting at a low market cap and offers an asymmetric return profile. If Sentivate will
be able to deliver on its promises and will design rational economics for VIAT, investors should
eventually be rewarded with significant returns.
Long-term investment
Investors should be aware that Sentivate is a long-term bet and currently still an early stage
project with ambitious visions that still needs to deliver by hitting some milestones.
Risk & Concerns
Sentivate might face unexpected hurdles. Given the high ambitions Sentivate has set itself, we have concerns
about the ability and size of the team to meet them.
The current use case for SNTVT is very limited (early access and voting power). The potential for VIAT cannot be
properly assessed yet since the whitepaper 2.0 specifying the economics behind VIAT is not released yet.
