Allocation.space is a commodities market to power the commercialization of space built on the Algorand blockchain.
The Allocation Protocol enables users to create and trade commodity futures contracts through a decentralized on-chain clearing house. We built it for space, but it’s ready for everything.
A new commodity trading infrastructure for everyone
To have a meaningful impact on real-world economic projects like the commercialization of space, blockchain will need protocols that support the trade of goods and services with concrete value and provide the connective structures to ensure that value is composable across the landscape of decentralized financial applications.
To meet this need, we have designed the Allocation Protocol, a headless algorithmic commodities clearing house for the Web3 generation built on Algorand.
We built it for the space economy, but it’s ready for everything.
