COPA, The Cryptocurrency Open Patent Alliance, operates on the principle that open access to patents covering foundational cryptocurrency technologies is necessary for the community to grow, freely innovate, and build new and better products.

It is a non-profit community of like-minded people and companies formed to encourage the adoption and advancement of cryptocurrency technologies and to remove patents as a barrier to growth and innovation. COPA acknowledges that cryptocurrency technology is built on the collaborative efforts of a community made up of developers, engineers, and designers. The success of cryptocurrency is a direct result of the community coming together to build and develop upon existing technologies for the benefit of all, and we believe COPA will help this happen.

Crypto organizations have filed for hundreds of patents on cryptocurrency technology and continue to do so in large numbers, causing some concerns:

1/ Locking up foundational cryptocurrency technologies in patents stifles innovation and the adoption of these technologies in new and improved applications.

2/ While patents are useful defensively and can serve as a lawsuit deterrent, misguided and offensive use of patents by bad actors threatens the growth and free availability of cryptocurrency technologies. Many crypto companies do not own patents and are unable to adequately deter or defend against these bad actors.

YOUR ACCESS TO THE ETHEREUM NETWORK. Our easy to use API and developer tools provide secure, reliable, and scalable access to Ethereum and IPFS. We provide the infrastructure for your decentralized applications so you can focus on the features.

Formed as the brain child of Herman Junge, Infura was born with the goal of delivering stable and reliable RPC access to the internal projects within ConsenSys. As the Ethereum network began to grab the majority of blockchain developer mindshare, we recognized that Infura would be of broad interest to the entire ecosystem.

We publicly launched at Devcon2 in Shanghai and have been growing ever since to meet the developer demand. Today, Infura is a core infrastructure pillar of Ethereum and IPFS and is enabling decentralized applications of all kinds to scale to accommodate their users.
