Learn how to use 4P Super App, communicate on-chain with friends or agents, build with 4P or learn how $FOUR plays a vital part in the future Web3 communication.

Welcome! This documentation will help you understand the development behind the 4thPillar or short 4P project. Here you will find concepts, how-to guides, quick-starts, tutorials, code examples, release notes, and more.

What is 4P?

4P = “on-chain” emailing & messaging super application tailored for human & agent interactions and perfectly aligned with decentralization fundamentals.

Abstract: In the ever-evolving landscape of communication, pivotal technologies have shaped how humans connect. Brought by the invention of electricity the Telegraph once symbolized the reach of reliable global correspondence, while the invention of the microprocessors and the internet transformed the way we interact and communicate at scale. Today, blockchain technology propels us into a new era of secure, non-custodial, permissionless, and decentralized digital communication. Furthermore, it offers unparalleled data ownership, safeguarded by the distributed nature of blockchain, ensuring uninterrupted access and preserving the integrity of your conversations. Following the invention of electricity, microprocessors, and the internet, blockchain technology can also be referred to as the fourth pillar of technology innovation, hence The 4thPillar project or short 4P.

Mission

Creation of a robust and self-custodial on-chain emailing and messaging applications aligned to support human & agent interactions.

What are we building?

We are building a P2P email & messaging application that is non-custodial, data mining-resistant, enables immutable communication, build on the censorship and de-platforming-resistant protocol.

• 1 email/message = 1 L1/L2-TX

• Not your keys = not your communication

Who can use it?

• Users that need to communicate in a secure, confindential and self-custodial manner;

• AI Agents that need to colaborate and communicate cross-platform in a permissionless and self-custodial manner;

• DeFi projects & DAOs that due to decentralization or regulation primitives need on-chain communication;

• Enterprise sector that need secure & robust communication that is resistant to cyber attacks;

• Public funds & foundations that need transparent but secure on-chain communication.

Project Design

The project's design centres around community collaboration where any community member can contribute. Open-source GitHub repositories stand ready for anyone to fork and propose enhanced functionalities. A set of smart contracts is set to enable the future Four Token RTA (i.e. right-to-access) models.

Ecosystem

• dSYS Limited - 4thPillar: The company that build the initiated the community development of the 4P Super App.

• Block Labs - 4thTech: The company and the initiative which developed the genesis OCC Protocol, along with the OCC SDK and OCC email & messaging white-label framework utalized by the 4P Super App.

• CR Systems - Immu3: Acts as Level-1 integrator of 4thTech on-chain communication technology, focusing on the abstraction, adoption and commercialization while offering Level-2 permissionless licences to on-chain communication dApp developers such as 4P.

• $FOUR: A technical component in solving RTA (i.e. right-to-access), MTO (i.e. multiple-transfer option), Grants, and Governance models in the ecosystem of Web3 communication.

• OCC Protocol v1: A suite of EVM smart contracts [Mails, Chat, Users, AppFeeManager] developed by the 4thTech initiative that together create an on-chain communication framework and facilitate data ownership retention within peer-to-peer emailing, messaging, data file transfers, or any other form of on-chain communication.

• Encryptor Extension: Google Chrome Extension that enables self-custodial W2W encryption and decryption of the on-chain communication or shared data files that are created within the 4P Email & Chat transactions.
• PollinationX: Decentralized storage infrastructure service that enables self-custodial end-user storage management in the form of PX Storage NFTs.
