Holochain

Entorno de Ejecución P2P Integrado

Agent-centric framework for building peer-to-peer applications without blockchains, servers, or global consensus. Each user runs a local copy of the app and signs/stores their own data on their own device (source chain); public data is then validated by a random subset of peers against the app's rules before being gossiped through the network. Invalid data triggers a network-wide security response rather than requiring miners or validators to agree on a single shared ledger. Positioned explicitly as an alternative to blockchain: no token is required for the protocol to function, and each app runs on its own independent network rather than a shared chain.

Estado de Desarrollo 🔬 Beta
Detalle del Estado de Desarrollo Beta — Holochain's own current roadmap (holochain.org/roadmap, verified 2026-09-14) states the framework "remains in beta across all versions"; latest stable release is 0.7.0 (July 30, 2026), with substantial network/security infrastructure and stability work still identified as outstanding (transport rework, node warranting/blocking for validation violators, workflow stabilization) ahead of what the roadmap itself calls "production-grade maturity." The 0.4.x-series-in-production framing in earlier sourcing describes real deployed apps (Acorn, Neighbourhoods, Group Income) running on the framework, consistent with Beta — real usage exists while the platform's own maintainers describe it as not yet production-grade.

Incorporación de Activos/Valor Native — HOT (HoloToken) is the ERC-20 bridging token used to purchase hosting credits on the Holo network; once redeemed, credits convert to HoloFuel (HOF), the mutual-credit accounting currency native to the Holochain/Holo ecosystem. HOT/HOF is specific to the Holo hosting layer rather than to the core Holochain protocol, which itself is tokenless; individual hApps may define their own asset models.
Herramientas de Desarrollo hc-scaffold CLI (rapid application development scaffolding with templates for vanilla, Vue, Lit, Svelte, React, and headless — generates back-end, UI, and test boilerplate); hc CLI (bundles, tests, and runs hApps); Holonix (Nix-based reproducible development shell environment for macOS and Linux); Tryorama (Node.js-based test framework for unit and end-to-end multi-party tests); Holochain Rust SDK (HDK — Holochain Development Kit for writing integrity and coordinator zomes in Rust compiled to WASM); holochain-client-js and holochain-client-rust (client libraries); Holo Web SDK; DevHub (hApp for distributing packages via App Store); Launcher (end-user runtime for installing/running hApps); Holochain Open Dev (reusable building blocks: user profiles, blob storage, time/keyword indexing); p2p Shipyard by darksoil studio (Tauri+Nix tool for redistributable desktop/Android runtimes); electron-holochain-template; Moss (groupware with Weave interoperability pattern)
Opciones de Despliegue Self-hosted conductor (local Holochain runtime on user's device); Holo hosting network (cloud-hosted hApps via HoloPorts for web users without Holochain installed); Holochain Launcher (desktop app store for installing/running hApps); standalone Tauri-based desktop apps via p2p Shipyard (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android); Electron-based apps via template; Moss groupware (group-based deployment with interoperable tools); web-hApp bundles (.webhapp files combining backend DNA + web UI for distribution)
Autenticación e Identidad Agent-centric cryptographic identity — each agent identified by Ed25519 public key (AgentPubKey); new keypair generated per app installation; private key signs all network communications and source chain actions; DeepKey (core hApp for Distributed Public Key Infrastructure / DPKI): manages keysets across apps and devices, KeysetRoot (KSR) via one-time throwaway keypair, key registration/replacement/revocation, M-of-N multisignature revocation rules, multi-device keyset management, derivation details for key recovery from master seed; Lair secure keystore integration; capability tokens for fine-grained function-level authorization; app entry requirements fully customizable (open access to arbitrary verification); no centralized identity authority
Modelo de Almacenamiento Agent-centric dual storage: (1) Source chain — each agent maintains their own local append-only hash chain of signed actions and entries (personal tamper-evident ledger); (2) DHT (Distributed Hash Table) — shared validation and availability layer where entries are distributed to validation authorities based on content-address proximity; app entries are deduplicated on DHT but individual agents' writes distinguished by their signed actions; private entries remain on source chain only; data validated by peers according to integrity zome rules before acceptance into DHT; content-addressed via hashing; no global ledger or consensus mechanism
Interoperabilidad How (Holochain application for converging on interoperability standards among hApps); bridging between cells/DNAs within a conductor for cross-app data access; hREA/ValueFlows for economic network coordination; Syn library for real-time collaborative tools; attestations library for W3C verifiable credentials; composable DNA architecture (mix-and-match existing DNAs as microservices); Moss Weave pattern for group tool interoperability and cross-app data embedding; Holo Web SDK for web integration; no native federation with non-Holochain protocols (ActivityPub, Matrix, etc.)
Grafo Social Agent-centric (no built-in social graph at protocol level; social relationships implemented per-app via links between AgentPubKeys on DHT); Holochain Open Dev provides reusable profiles building block; DeepKey provides cross-app agent continuity via unified keyset identity; capability tokens enable selective relationship-based access grants; each app's DHT is its own peer network — social graph emerges from app participation and linking patterns rather than being a protocol primitive
Madurez del Protocolo / Estandarización Proprietary Open Standard (published protocol specifications for DHT, validation, agent-centric architecture; Holochain Foundation governed)
Política de Actualización Agent-centric source-chain append-only (each agent's source chain is immutable; state advances by appending signed actions); DHT entries are also append-only; application DNA (validation rules) upgrades require explicit migration paths and user consent; no global mutable state.
