Slidechain allows defined-access chains to secure your data. Change chain protocols as desired. Slidechain evolves with you. Ideal for governments, corporations, universities, hospitals, whenever you need siloed data. You wouldn't wear the same clothes now that you wore when you were a kid. So don't settle for prefabricated, rigid systems that won't (and can't) grow as you grow.
Other managed blockchains might allow a customer to "fork" an existing offered Blockchain to have its own chain within the seller's system. What the patented slidechain does is allow the customer to do future forks (multi-generational Blockchain forks or multi-level Blockchain forks) on its own, without needing the permission or intervention of the Blockchain master. Our patents, first written in 2014, explain the multi-generational, self-propagating, autonomous forking Blockchain that is not currently in the market, and which the market needs to truly use blockchain's advantages. Slidechain is a customizable blockchain, a flexible blockchain, and a usable blockchain.
Here's a quick three-minute video (voiced by our patent author, lawyer Eric Dixon) explaining "slidechain." Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tepwPaYE0Ro.
This sample code written by Eric Dixon helps explain the slidechain difference.. Code is always a work in progress.

Remember, use of the code in any way without permission from us (which means you must license it from us) is absolutely prohibited.
Our voting patent 9,829,908 understood before anyone else (applied in 2014) the untrustworthy election problem is not cured by fixing election-day conduct, but needs a holistic solution which recognizes elections will be viewed as legitimate only when people are confident that voting is limited only to valid, eligible participants. This requires voter registration data be collected and managed to ensure participation is restricted to those who meet eligibility and registration procedures. Individual slidechains within system can guard against "cross-contamination" performance issues. But the patented voting solution is easily adaptable to other event management use cases needing both credentialing (eligibility) and contest (game) functions, The slidechain patents can solve data management problems as diverse as:
Slidechain makes two evolutionary mprovements over conventional blockchain, allowing for modifications to the protocols such as rules governing how data is stored or interpreted, how block validity is verified, how consensus is achieved, and criteria for generating a new block,.
and accommodating multiple valid forks of a blockchain. We treat forks as great!
One point to remember. Slidechain does not conflict with major Blockchain protocols like Bitcoin or Ethereum. It modifies them.
The key is the payload., the data stored in each block. It may relate to transactions, ownership, data, access protocols (such as restrictions or conditions), document versioning or anything else.. A payload can be a fixed size, or flexible, and provides the input for the hash, which produces the payload hash. Slidechain distinguishes between planned valid forks and invalid forks. A valid fork has a hash representing the root block (which is the genesis block for the new chain, the fork) which is also stored in the fork block. This creates a two way link where the fork block and root block each contain a hash reference to each other.
We see a block being able to self trigger a fork, and leave a code opening for the block owner (and only the owner) to activate this power. The new "trigger" portion of the code can then be a special "marker" in the new chain, while subsequent chain blocks would have their hashes contain summaries of all their predecessors. A fork block may store more than one authorized hash to create multiple authorized forks from a single fork block. These hashes are stored in a flexible structure that allows storage of one or more short hashes corresponding to one or more root blocks. The protocols for each valid fork may be stored in the fork block payload, or in the root (genesis) blocks for each authorized fork chain. Protocols are able to specify that a genesis or root chain remains valid, with no limit on how many forks branch from it. Our system reflects the vision for a protocol which enables future users to more fully own their blocks, fully customize rules for that block, and preserve the rules or rights of earlier chains, earlier blocks or earlier (and separate) forks
