About Centaurus
A deployed cluster (constellation) consists of one leading server (alpha) and 5-19 auditor servers. All servers are deployed by independent organizations or business entities, and each party publicly confirms its identity with a standard Stellar ed25519 public key. The organizations forming the constellation (and their public keys) won't be changed frequently, therefore it makes sense to ship public keys with client software to allow direct signature verification on the client-side. Funds received from clients are stored in a single Stellar account (vault) protected by M-of-N multi-sig, where N is the total number of independent servers forming a constellation, and M is the majority of votes (>50%) plus 1. Any withdrawal operation requires the majority of signatures from the quorum participants and is ensured by the underlying Stellar ledger. Payments and trades with instant confirmation and 5 seconds finality.

Loom Network
Loom Network provides developers the scalability and usability they need to build high-performance user-facing DApps today. With seamless integrations to Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance Chain, and all major blockchains, deploying once to Loom lets you future-proof your DApps by reaching the largest number of users possible. Loom Network is a multichain interop platform live in production since early 2018. Optimized for scaling high-performance DApps that require a fast and smooth user experience, the network allows DApps to offer a UX comparable to traditional applications and onboard new users without the friction of needing to download crypto wallet software. This allows developers to integrate assets from all major chains, as well as build a DApp only once and offer it to users on all platforms simultaneously. The token is also used by developers to pay for DApp hosting on Loom Network. Unlike Ethereum, developers pay a flat monthly fee to host their DApps on Loom.

zkSync
zkSync is Ethereum’s most user-centric ZK rollup. Unlike any other scaling approach, ZK rollup has no upper bound on the value it can securely handle in L2. Unlike optimistic rollups, all assets can be moved capital-efficiently and fast between ZK rollup and L1. zkSync has the lowest real tx costs across all existing and planned rollups. zkSync also supports meta-transactions, instant confirmations with economic finality, low-cost privacy, and more. Ease and fun of development are at the core of zkSync design. Integrate payments and atomic swaps in a few lines of code. Develop type-safe, functional style smart contracts on Zinc: a Rust-based framework. Deploy your existing EVM codebase with minimum modifications.

Simple Ledger Protocol (SLP)
Storing and managing tokens on a blockchain provides greater transparency and integrity than traditional forms of asset accounting and trading. Virtual gaming assets, licenses, digital media rights, gift cards, and company stock shares can all be tokenized. Tokens can also be sent peer-to-peer without any middleman, allowing for a new kind of decentralized digital marketplace. Simple Ledger Protocol makes this vision a reality by providing the simplest, fastest, and most liberating token system in existence. SLP tokens can easily be created, transferred, and managed on the Bitcoin Cash blockchain within seconds; costing the user only fractions of a penny for each transaction. Many systems are complicated. SLP is easy to understand, giving users confidence. Some token protocols have their own coin which you must first acquire in order to use other tokens. SLP runs directly on top of BCH. A limited set of consensus rules makes the system reliable.
