π DotBee β The .bee
Format for a Structured, Modular, and Verifiable Web3
DotBee is an innovative file architecture based on the .bee
format,
designed to structure, organize, and secure blockchain data in a
readable, modular, and distributed way.
π¦ What Is the .bee Format?
The .bee
format acts as a semantic ZIP container divided into ten directories
(from 0/
to 9/
), known as BeeCoins.
Each represents a semantic segment of the blockchain β identities, contracts, transactions, resources, etc. β
ensuring reliable, traceable, and verifiable data sharing across decentralized systems.
π BeeCoin Directory Structure
- 0/: Identity (individuals, legal entities)
- 1/: Ownership titles
- 2/: Smart contracts
- 3/: Transactions and accounts
- 4/: Value declarations and KPIs
- 5/: Access rights and permissions
- 6/: Calculation rules and processes
- 7/: Messages and logs
- 8/: Available resources
- 9/: Public records and transparency
𧬠A Simplified XML for Interoperability
Every file inside follows a lightweight XML syntax using only tags from <a>
to <z>
,
with an implicit closing tag </>
.
This minimal design enables ultra-fast machine processing,
ideal for smart contracts, DAOs, and decentralized industrial systems.
π Portability and Security
The .bee
format is:
- π Compressed (standard ZIP container)
- π§© Modular (editable as a folder or archive)
- π Verifiable via SHA-256 hash in the manifest
- π Compatible with blockchain, cloud, and collaborative ecosystems
π Use Cases
- Versioned smart contract authoring
- Decentralized digital identity management
- Financial transaction modeling
- Storage of public assets and transparency registries
- Machine-to-machine interoperability for IoT and Web3
The DotBee Project is an open initiative supported by BeeLicense,
aiming to establish a clear, secure, and verifiable semantic foundation
for the next generation of decentralized applications.
