Trust-transfer offers a versatile solution with two connectors for different technologies:

  • OData/Rest, where a web-service using SSL can be invoke to interact with the Blockchain.

  • File System. where inbound/outbound folders are used for communication. A pair of folder is used for each Smart Contract.

As trust-transfer has a very flexible design, it can be implemented in three different ways:

  • On premise: in this implementation, you install trust-transfer Connector in your LAN on your own server. Once it's set up, the regular monitoring and maintenance is performed by anyone in your organization. No fees or services are considered for this implementation.

  • IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service): in this implementation, we install the trust-transfer Connector in your Cloud Service Provider (eg AWS, Google, Azure), and once that it's up and running, you take care of the maintenance (no fees or services are considered for this implementation).

  • SaaS (Software as a Service): in this implementation, we install the trust-transfer Connector in trust-transfer Cloud Service Provider (eg AWS), and we take care of the service maintenance regularly.

Pricing for Smart Contracts and NFTs

The Blockchain is decentralized and inmutable, always available and maintained by the Nodes provided by the miners. As the information is always available, query any data is free and easy.

When you need to update the Blockchain (deploying an Smart Contract or minting an NFT) is when there's a fee that you need to pay to the miners for such activity (this is totally independent of trust-transfer).

The fee can vary depending on the Network used for deploying, and as trust-transfer uses EVM compatible, there're several networks that can be used. We suggest Polygon because its a Layer 2 network fast and secure, widely accepted, cheap and stable (but any EVM compatible can be used, you and your Third-Party will be using the same network).

As a sample, the current cost of deploying a smart contract in Polygon = 3.85M x 45 Gwei = 174M Gwei
