Quark

Параметры системы

Quark обладает впечатляющими техническими характеристиками:

1. Площадка использует весьма продвинутый алгоритм хэширования.
2. Генерация блока происходит за 30 секунд.
3. Награда за каждый блок не может быть ниже 1.

В течение первого полугодия работы платформы было добыто свыше 200 миллионов кварков. Далее команда проекта ввела ограничение, в соответствии с которым каждый последующий год возможен майнинг не более 1 миллиона токенов. Стоимость же монет подвергли четырехпроцентной инфляции. Прекращение добычи валюты в обозримом будущем не планируется.

Денежные переводы совершаются буквально за 30 секунд. К сведению, в системе Bitcoin подлинность той или иной операции подтверждается не менее 10 минут. Конечно, иногда можно заметить некоторые глюки, однако, это отдельная тема.

Коины платформы не имеют общего эмиссионного центра и без труда меняются на прочие виды электронной валюты. Помимо этого, они гарантируют полную анонимность совершаемых операций. Как гласит манифест Quark, ее появление поможет сделать следующий шаг на пути к социальному возвышению человека. Главная задача проекта — разрушить валютные барьеры, мешающие развитию как отдельных индивидуумов, так и целых сообществ. Будучи инструментом, выходящим за пределы одной страны, он намеревается совершить финансовую революцию и улучшить положение людей в каждом уголке нашей планеты.

Кварк не отвергает справедливого правового регулирования и налогообложения, призванного защитить обычных граждан, но выступает за то, чтобы сердце валюты располагалась вне юрисдикции властных структур.

Сравнение Биткоина и Кварка

Сравнение сходств и различий Биткоина и форка Кварке будет происходить по основным параметрам, которые интересуют майнеров:

• Безопасность. Так как ВТС был криптовалютой-пионером, в его системе безопасности много брешей, и она не справляется с полученной нагрузкой. Для шифрования используется SHA-256, который уже долгое время попадает под экспертную и пользовательскую критику за свою уязвимость. В свою очередь Quark использует усовершенствованную структуру защиты, о которой говорилось в предыдущем разделе. Она состоит из 6 современных алгоритмов, которые продолжают функционировать, даже если из строя выведен один, а также из 9 раундов хэширования. В плане безопасности Биткоин проигрывает Кварку.
• Майнинг. В начале своего пути ВТС был «ходовой» криптовалютой, которую можно было майнить даже на откровенно средних пользовательских устройствах. Однако с ростом рыночной капитализации и популярности, требования к оборудованию и стартовым вложениям начали расти. На данный момент начать добывать «биток» с нуля без крупных капиталов и дорогостоящих GPU-ферм – невозможно. Единственная альтернатива – облачные сервисы, которые взымают серьезные комиссии. В период полного функционирования у системы Quarkcoin требования были гораздо лояльнее. Блоки генерировались в 20 раз быстрее, чем у прямого конкурента, но это, несмотря на пользу для начинающих майнеров, привело проект к провалу. Из-за перемайна за полгода было добыто 247 миллионов единиц, поэтому разработчикам пришлось заложить искусственную инфляцию, чтобы в последующие годы выпускать по 1 миллиону монет. С одной стороны это можно считать плюсом, так как вероятность превратить майнинг Кварка в «гонку вооружений» свелась к нулю, но с другой стороны это привело к обесцениванию валюты и полному упадку существующей системы.
• Скорость. В плане скорости обработки транзакций Биткоин уступает практически всем перспективным проектам. Переводы исполняются в рамках непозволительно долгих сроков – минимум 10 минут и до нескольких часов (а в случае с перегруженностью серверов во время сильных скачков стоимости – до суток). Именно этот фактор отвернул многих пользователей ВТС в сторону других «шустрых» криптовалют. В свою очередь среднее время подтверждения транзакции в сети QRK не превышает отметки в 40 секунд.
• Распределение. По этому параметру Биткоин также уступает Кварку по всем фронтам. Постоянный рост требований и запросов системы к современному оборудованию урезал аудиторию битка до маленькой группы людей, владеющей 85% всех криптовалютных капиталов (большинство из которых являются резидентами азиатских стран). АСИК-оборудование обходится дорого не только на этапе покупки, но и в процессе обслуживания. Минимальные стартовые затраты для начала майнинга превышают отметку в 10 000 долларов США. Quark же в основу идеи заложил доступность добычи для всех, в том числе и для владельцев производительных персональных компьютеров. Это подтверждается рядом факторов: основные «запасы» крипты находятся в руках не ограниченного небольшого круга пользователей, а у тысяч людей со всего мира, а также тем моментом, что большинство монет (247 миллионов) было добыто за короткий промежуток времени – за 6 месяцев. Простота и доступность майнинга снизила рыночную стоимость криптовалюты до рекордно низких отметок.

О проекте

Криптовалюта Quark основана летом 2013 года разработчиком Max Guevara. Как базу для разработки он взял исходный код популярного Биткоина, усовершенствовал и лишил главных недостатков – преимущественно «пробелов» в безопасности. Защите валюты было уделено больше всего внимания. Для проекта Max Guevara выбрал кодирование транзакций при помощи шести полуавтономных алгоритмов и девяти «кругов» хэширования.

Такая сложная структура обеспечила стабильность и устойчивость к хакерским атакам. Благодаря ей система функционирует, даже если строя выходит один алгоритм шифрования.

Это сделало Quark лидером по безопасности среди электронных валют состоянием на 2013 год. Пользователи могут быстро и без проблем расплачиваться монетами за покупки, и переводить средства в любую точку земного шара за считанные секунды (что в двадцать раз быстрее, чем у «прародителя» крипты – Биткоина).

В 2013 году Quarkcoin на фоне растущей популярности занял четвертое место по рыночной стоимости среди функционирующих крипто-проектов. Блоки на тот момент генерировались в 20 раз быстрее, чем у BTC, что сделало Кварк легкой добычей для предприимчивых майнеров. Монеты добывались легко, а на некоторых ценовых скачках сотни пользователей преумножили свои капиталы в сотни раз.

После ошеломляющего успеха проекта ждал ошеломляющий провал. С 2014 года курс криптовалюты Quark застыл на отметке меньше цента, и этому показателю не суждено вырасти. Его можно не рассматривать как источник для инвестирования.

Easy to Use and Reading Friendly Report

Quark is very easy to use and also provides flexible output formats. There are 6 types of output reports: detail report,
call graph, rules classification, summary report, label-based report, behaviors comparison radar chart. Please see below for more details.

Detail Report

This is how we examine a real android malware (candy corn) with one single rule (crime).

$ quark -a 14d9f1a92dd984d6040cc41ed06e273e.apk -d

and the report will look like:

There is the possibility to select only one label to filter the rules:

quark -a 14d9f1a92dd984d6040cc41ed06e273e.apk -d network

There is also the possibility to select only one rule:

quark -a 14d9f1a92dd984d6040cc41ed06e273e.apk -d 00058.json

Call Graph for Every Potential Malicious Activity

You can add the option to the quark command, and you can
get the call graph (only those rules match with 100% confidence)

quark -a Ahmyth.apk -s -g

Rules Classification

You can add the option to the quark command, and you can
output the rules classification with the mutual parent function (only those rules match with 100% confidence).

quark -a Ahmyth.apk -s -c

Summary Report

Examine with rules.

quark -a 14d9f1a92dd984d6040cc41ed06e273e.apk -s

There is the possibility to select only one label to filter the rules:

quark -a 14d9f1a92dd984d6040cc41ed06e273e.apk -s network

There is also the possibility to select only one rule:

quark -a 14d9f1a92dd984d6040cc41ed06e273e.apk -s <path_to_rule_folder>/00058.json

(If you want to select one of the rules of Quark-Rule, the default path to Quark-Rule is .)

Check which topic (indicated by labels) of the malware is more aggressive.

quark -a Ahmyth.apk -l detailed

Behaviors Comparison Radar Chart

With the following command, you can compare different APK actions based on the max confidence of rule labels and generate
a radar chart.

quark -a first.apk -a second.apk -C

Parallelizing Quark

Now Quark supports multiprocessing for analyzing APKs parallelly, by adding the option and set the number of processes. (the default is the number of CPUs in your computer.)

quark -a Ahmyth.apk -s --multi-process 4

Upcoming unstable feature

Now Quark also supports Rizin as one of our Android analysis frameworks. You can use option with to enable the Rizin-based analysis library.

quark -a Ahmyth.apk -s --core-library rizin

History

The notion of quarks evolved out of a classification of hadrons developed independently in 1961 by Murray Gell-Mann and Kazuhiko Nishijima, which nowadays goes by the name of the quark model. The scheme grouped together particles with isospin and strangeness using a unitary symmetry derived from current algebra, which we today recognise as part of the approximate chiral symmetry of QCD. This is a global flavor SU(3) symmetry, which should not be confused with the gauge symmetry of QCD.

In this scheme the lightest mesons (spin-0) and baryons (spin-½) are grouped together into octets, 8, of flavor symmetry. A classification of the spin-3/2 baryons into the representation 10 yielded a prediction of a new particle, Ω−, the discovery of which in 1964 led to wide acceptance of the model. The missing representation 3 was identified with quarks.

This scheme was called the eightfold way by Gell-Mann, a clever conflation of the octets of the model with the eightfold way of Buddhism. He also chose the name quark and attributed it to the sentence “Three quarks for Muster Mark” in James Joyce’s Finnegans Wake. The negative results of quark search experiments caused Gell-Mann to hold that quarks were mathematical fiction.

Analysis of certain properties of high energy reactions of hadrons led Richard Feynman to postulate substructures of hadrons, which he called partons (since they form part of hadrons). A scaling of deep inelastic scattering cross sections derived from current algebra by James Bjorken received an explanation in terms of partons. When Bjorken scaling was verified in an experiment in 1969, it was immediately realized that partons and quarks could be the same thing. With the proof of asymptotic freedom in QCD in 1973 by David Gross, Frank Wilczek, and David Politzer, the connection was firmly established.

The charm quark was postulated by Sheldon Glashow, Iliopoulos, and Maiani in 1970 to prevent unphysical flavor changes in weak decays which would otherwise occur in the standard model. The discovery in 1975 of the meson, which came to be called the J/ψ, led to the recognition that it was made of a charm quark and its antiquark.

The existence of a third generation of quarks was predicted in 1973 by Makoto Kobayashi and Toshihide Maskawa who realized that the observed violation of CP symmetry by neutral kaons could not be accommodated into the Standard Model with two generations of quarks. The bottom quark was discovered in 1977 and the top quark in 1996 at the Tevatron collider in Fermilab.

Free quarks

1974 discovery photograph of a possible charmed baryon, now identified as the Σ_c++

No search for free quarks or fractional electric charges has returned convincing evidence. The absence of free quarks has therefore been incorporated into the notion of , which, it is believed, the theory of quarks must possess.

Confinement began as an experimental observation, and is expected to follow from the modern theory of strong interactions, called quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Although there is no mathematical derivation of confinement in QCD, it is easy to show using lattice gauge theory.

However, it may be possible to change the confinement by creating dense or hot quark matter. These new phases of QCD matter have been predicted theoretically, and experimental searches for them have now started.
