GOSH — A Very Peculiar Blockchain ⚪

GOSH is a first ever decentralized GitHub. The project uses the Everscale codebase as a decentralized server for git storage.

GOSH secures software supply chains by providing a variety of different tools to developers, and enterprises alike. One of these is the decentralized management of code through DAOs.

The first anniversary of GOSH is coming. Enjoy our review of the publication which describes the project's key features.

GOSH Blockchain Innovation

The key innovation was the creation of a blockchain that offers free use. On GOSH, any developer can create their own code for free, just like on any other git. Only this git is fully on-chain.

The developers have achieved this through the GOSH Free Service Area. Fees are not transferred to validators, but to the giver, who distribute the gas between other contracts. This means that any developer can use GOSH for free, and sell their services using Fiat Payment Gateways without a need to KYC/AML.

GOSH tokens

• The SHELL token is the main utility token of the GOSH blockchain and is used to pay gas and fees. Anybody can buy SHELL with their credit card for (and always for) $1.

• The DAO token is convertible to DAO Karma — the voting token of any DAO on GOSH — which, in turn, is not transferable or tradeable.

GOSH Paid

Paid membership in GOSH offers developers a new way to unlock the value of their code. DAOs will be able to lend Karma as a monthly subscription to those who want to support open source. In exchange for their contribution, members will receive voting power in a DAO as Karma.

Open source, governed through DAOs, can now be financially supported by users and enthusiasts, all while keeping it free to use, and so, open.

GOSH launches AnyTree 🌳

To solve the problem of supply chain security, GOSH has developed AnyTree, a software deployment system that provides source code-level security using cryptographic signatures and proprietary Deep SBOM technology.

🔵The system works with a variety of package managers and applications, allowing developers to deliver content in a familiar way

🔵It logs all code changes, dependencies, builds and artifacts on the blockchain, thus providing transparency and verifiability

🔵Using Deep SBOM technology, the system focuses on in-depth observability of controlled software — this allows real-time monitoring of software content and helps identify vulnerabilities

🔵Using blockchain technology, it also provides transparency in verifying the source code used in packages — this protects against potential attacks and provides trust for developers and end users

🔵By integrating with GOSH Builder, the system has the ability to isolate and reproduce individual software builds — this allows developers to maintain consistency and trust

AnyTree is currently available in beta for Linux, but support for Windows and macOS is also planned.

DAO in GOSH: what is it for and how to create it? 📥

Governance is the basis for achieving open source security guarantees, according to GOSH. They see a solution to the problem through DAOs — decentralized autonomous organizations.

As part of the work with GOSH, every open source repository becomes a DAO, allowing direct participation and scalability in governance.

➕ DAOs in GOSH operate with tokens, and important decisions are made by voting participants

➕ DAO participants can earn tokens for their contributions and receive voting rights based on the number of tokens they hold

➕ Participants can also suggest tasks and reward other participants with tokens for completing them

🛡 The ultimate goal of GOSH is to give developers control over their open source work through DAOs, thereby improving security, scalability, and cost-effectiveness.

🔗 To learn about the process of creating, customizing and updating DAO, as well as the mechanisms of tasks and token voting — we suggest you go to the official GOSH YouTube-channel and watch a short series of tutorials.

AnyTree — how to use it in your Git? 🌳

We previously wrote about the launch of AnyTree, a software deployment system that provides source code-level security using cryptographic signatures and proprietary Deep SBOM technology.

AnyTree supports popular Git repositories such as GitHub and GitLab, allowing developers to maintain existing workflows and ensure security. And Deep SBOM technology solves the problem of software reproducibility and verifiability.

Unlike traditional static software specifications (SBOM), Deep SBOM provides an unprecedented level of transparency. It describes each step, resource, and dependency in detail, ensuring that software artifacts are accurately reproduced.

This process minimizes inconsistencies, vulnerabilities and the need for manual audits, bridging the gap between manual and automated security reviews.

To use AnyTree with GitHub:

⏺1️⃣ Clone the repository of AnyTree
⏺2️⃣ Run «make install» command
⏺3️⃣ Generate SBOM with Python script
🔵4️⃣ Build the application using the generated SBOM

Deep SBOM functionality extends to all Git users, improving security even if not all GOSH features are used.

AnyTree's core philosophy is based on the principles of trust, allowing developers to take advantage of untrusted signatures and immutable assemblies based on a trusted infrastructure.

🛡 This approach provides additional security for the software supply chain, allowing you to instantly recognize errors and intrusions.

GOSH launches Layer 2 for Ethereum ⚪️

The GOSH platform announced that it runs as Ethereum Layer 2.

GOSH is a scalable asynchronous sharded blockchain that allows select partners to run smart contracts on-chain for Free. GOSH stores and processes git objects entirely on-chain, allowing for fully decentralized management of repositories through GOSH DAOs.

GOSH currently runs over 2,000 DAOs and over 56 million git object smart contracts have been deployed. Developing on GOSH means using smart contracts for every merge, commit, and pull request, so GOSH is the first development platform where the more code you write the more secure it becomes.

GOSH is a production ready on-chain Git DAO platform while GOSH L2 is accessible with limited functionality as a Beta within the GOSH user interface.

GOSH L2 is launching with 12 partners: GBA, Ethernity Cloud, DeVote, GEX, DeSci World, Q, deScier, WOW DAO, Pruvendo, Hero2Quest, Triscale, Viete.

GOSH AMA Session Highlights. Part 1 ⚪️

Founder of the GOSH platform, Mitja Goroshevsky, recently answered questions from the Everscale community. Here's a summary of the meeting.

Part 1. About development achievements and product roadmap

• Development updates since the beginning of 2023. 3 or 4 GOSH upgrade versions. As a result, the first stage of L2 launch on Ethereum. Strategic decision: NOT to develop L1 blockchain but to develop L2 network on top of Ethereum.

Mitja 🗣 "Because the money is in Ether. Today, raising L1 is a utopia doomed to fail."

• More about L2. Currently, L2 is the only confirmed solution for Ethereum scalability. Sharding protocol of ETH 2.0 was abandoned. L2 comes in different types. The essence: there is an off-chain mechanism for grouping transactions and providing proof of their correctness. You can withdraw funds from ETH to L2 in a decentralized way and bring them back at any time without bridges, validators, or relying on specific parties.

• GOSH L2 implementation stages:
1st stage - "Trustless Bridge": we trust GOSH validators and Ethereum validators.
2nd stage - "Optimistic roll-up": we stop trusting validators but validators may not include some transactions.
3rd stage - nobody trusts anyone. Fully proven states in GOSH and ETH. In other words, both ETH and GOSH networks need to stop for funds to disappear.

• Fees in GOSH L2. When you withdraw funds from Ethereum to L2 and vice versa, there is a fee, which remains. There can also be fees within L2. There are no such fees in GOSH. So, while you're in L2, you don't pay fees.

• How many DAOs are there in GOSH? In just the last 3 months, 1038 DAOs have been deployed and 149,000 commits have been made.

• GOSH marketing. How do you attract users? Through partnerships with active participants in the Ethereum community and providing solutions tailored to their needs. Also, by participating in conferences. Currently, a major deScie conference is being prepared in Tel Aviv in March 2024, in collaboration with the ETH Foundation.

• How will GOSH make money? L2 fees and freemium model - revenue from users in the form of a percentage of income from GOSH-utilizing applications that will be monetized (similar to AppStore).

• Freemium model in GOSH: If you want to create and launch a service on GOSH and earn money, you don't necessarily have to charge users for each transaction. You can offer them a subscription.

Mitja 🗣 "Mass adoption in Web3 won't happen as long as users have to pay for every transaction (except financial operations)."

The second part of the meeting summary, focusing on GOSH tokens and partnerships, will be published soon.

Summary of the GOSH AMA session. Part 2 ⚪️

Continuation of the summary of the meeting with GOSH founder, Mitja Goroshevsky. Read the beginning here.

Part 2. About GOSH tokens and partnerships

• How will those who staked EVER in 2022 receive GOSH tokens? At the end of the first lock period through a special smart contract.

• About the ICO of GOSH tokens. Currently, all GOSH token sales are direct sales to investors. The project has raised ~$1 million+ in investments over the year. It is unclear whether there will be an ICO.

• SHELL tokens can be purchased with fiat. Its concept will differ from traditional stablecoins that regulators are currently focusing on.

Mitja 🗣 "The global CBDC project will fail miserably."

• About the KWT token. After the launch of GEX, a fund will be created that will provide liquidity.

• About GEX. The estimated integration period with Flex is 2 months, but it depends not only on GOSH.

• GOSH and AI. Collaborative plans with partner WOW DAO focus on decentralization, management, and AI security.

• About the partnership with Docker (the partnership is based on security solutions). Work is underway to involve Docker in ITF Supply Chain standards.

• GOSH collaborates with Nil Foundation and supports ZKP, as it is impossible to prove state changes of TVM contracts to validators outside of TVM without it.

• Thanks to the collaboration with Pruvendo, any Solidity (EVM and TVM) developer will be able to write formal specifications right from the GOSH visual editor.

• The issue of blockchain reading speed is being addressed in collaboration with the Cloud team. There is a plan for a solution. The main problem is the speed of reading objects that were written during a "push."

• In DAO, changing the name is not possible, as it is like a certificate of authenticity. Can data be transferred from an old DAO to a new one? Not yet, but it is an interesting idea. This happens during upgrades. So, theoretically, yes.

Mitja 🗣 "We have developed one of the largest applications in Web3. GOSH is one of the few products that can compete with Web2 projects (if we are not talking purely about financial instruments)."

GOSH partners with the Q protocol ⚪️

Q is for decentralized organizations that want to build in a secure and trusted environment that can operate beyond the code. It is called "Layer Q", a neutral, monitored human layer that acts as a digital economy for DAOs, DACs and the like.

Since GOSH is a DAO platform, partnering with Q is a convenient solution: DAOs on GOSH can now draft their own constitution, establishing community rules. If decisions are suspected to be unconstitutional, they can be challenged using Q's dispute resolution mechanism. This ensures conflict resolution and upholding the values of the DAO community.

This is not the last GOSH partnership, stay tuned for more news ⚡️
