Abstract: A system, method, and computer program for a blockchain-supported programmable information management and data distribution system for decentralized application development that integrates scalability power with functional decentralized application development environment and high data storage capacity. The system may comprise a virtual machine that supports and unites on-chain logic capabilities and off-chain data management capabilities. On-chain logic capabilities may comprise application of rate-limiting capabilities, use of currency, and delegated asynchronous proof-of-stake functionality. Off-chain data management capabilities may comprise an artifact network, multi-party protocol, and analytic capabilities. Incorporation of smart contracts may be supported directly by the virtual machine.
