The Internet of Blockchains. Cosmos is an ever-expanding ecosystem of interconnected apps and services, built for a decentralized future. Enter a new universe of connected services. Cosmos apps and services connect using IBC, the Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol. This innovation enables you to freely exchange assets and data across sovereign decentralized blockchains. Serving as the economic center of Cosmos, the Cosmos Hub is a blockchain that provides vital services to the Interchain. Set to operate a next-gen decentralized exchange, swapping digital assets from across the Interchain, with very low fees and instant transaction confirmation. With the upcoming Interchain Staking feature, ATOM will soon be securing many chains, in exchange for additional staking rewards. A core mission of the Hub – to connect chains by establishing IBC connections with compatible chains and operating decentralized bridges with chains like Ethereum and Bitcoin.

The public blockchain that derives its value from activities created by members within the ecosystem solving real world economic problems. With BlockRef and Expiration transaction fields, users can set the time when transaction is processed or expired if not being included in a block. Flexible transaction fee delegation schemes (Multi-party Payment and Designated Gas Payer) enable a freemium model within a decentralized application to onboard users without friction. Multi-function atomic transactions allow developers to batch payments, add multiple calls to different contract functions into one transaction and determine their sequence. Set dependencies to ensure the execution order meets the business need, transactions that specify a dependency will not be executed until the required transaction is processed.

Everscale's architecture demonstrates that when software algorithms are implemented alongside a blockchain's infrastructure, the software itself ceases to be a performance bottleneck, thereby allowing transaction throughput to scale in direct proportion to network bandwidth. As such, Everscale’s architecture satisfies the three fundamental properties of a blockchain, scalability, security and decentralization. At Everscale we are demonstrating that distributed systems research is applicable to blockchain. Furthermore, and much to our surprise, it can be implemented using a mechanism that has been part of Bitcoin since day one which can be used to postdate transactions using block height instead of a timestamp. To achieve high network performance, you need reliable servers with fast connections. At the same time, in order to achieve sufficient decentralization, these servers should be owned by as many owners as possible.

Dusk Network is a technology for securities. An open-source and secure blockchain (DLT) infrastructure that businesses use to tokenize financial instruments and automate costly processes. A distributed Financial Market Infrastructure (dFMI) should provide a clear and final settlement of transactions. Moreover, the settlement of transactions should be instant or near-instant (<15s). The popular proof-of-work consensus mechanism used by Bitcoin and Ethereum does not address these requirements. Therefore, we designed a more performant consensus called Succinct Attestation agreement that enables instant settlement of transactions within 15 seconds. Powered by zero-knowledge technology, organizations use the dusk networks to issue tokens that are governed by privacy-preserving smart contracts. Harnessing the power of DLT while respecting confidentiality agreements, and data protection legislation.

When you send an IOTA transaction you validate two other transactions. This allows IOTA to overcome the cost and scalability limitations of blockchain. The IOTA network is built to for the Internet of Things, with tamper-proof data, feeless microtransactions and low resource requirements. Electronic healthcare (eHealth) data is the bedrock of healthcare. IOTA secures this data and opens up new models of care. With IOTA technology, eHealth data is secure and trusted thanks to the immutability of the Tangle.

Bitcoin Cash is the strongest money ever, delivering on Bitcoin's original promise as "User-to-User Electronic Money." Low commissions and reliable and irreversible transactions empower merchants and users. With unfettered growth, decentralized development, global adoption, and free innovation, the future is bright. All people are welcome to join the Bitcoin Cash community and contribute to advancing the development of sound money for all mankind. With Bitcoin Cash, you can send money to anyone, wherever they are, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Like the Internet, the network is always operational. No transaction is too big or too small and you never need anyone's permission or approval. Banks can also decide to block your transactions, charge you fees, or close your account without warning.

DigiByte is more than a faster digital currency. It is an innovative blockchain that can be used for digital assets, smart contracts, decentralized applications and secure authentication. The three layers are the most innovative parts of the DigiByte blockchain providing the network infrastructure, security and communications to function with cutting edge speed. The top layer is like an app store with clear real-world uses. All types of digital assets can be created with the DigiAssets protocol on top of the DigiByte blockchain. The middle layer provides security and administration. A Digital Byte of data, a representation of larger data or a unit that holds value, and cannot be counterfeited, duplicated or hacked. An immutable public ledger where all transactions of DigiBytes are recorded. DigiByte uses five proof of work algorithms for security. New DigiBytes come from mining only.

The fork of Solana with embedded EVM integration. Fastest EVM/EBPF hybrid chain inherited best from Solana and applied to EVM world. Supports all smart contracts built on the Ethereum blockchain. Extremely efficient performance at a fraction of the cost. Stake to support decentralization and get rewards. Through the Velas Network users gain access to decentralized services, delegating the security of his passwords, keys or seed-phrases to segmentation algorithms and validators that are interested in data security. Most important, this information will be distributed over the network and not available to any of its participants.

At Zilliqa, we leverage on our silicon-smooth, speedy and cost-effective blockchain platform to catalyze and transform digital infrastructure across all global communities and industries. We're committed to delivering a scalable and secure platform for developers and enterprises who wish to build decentralized applications. Our unique application of sharding allows the blockchain to scale in a linear fashion. This ensures that the Zilliqa platform can scale to meet the needs of a growing ecosystem of miners and applications. Zilliqa is powered by the first peer- reviewed and safe-by-design smart contract language called Scilla. Using functional programming design principles (as in OCaml) allows it to be more friendly towards static checks and formal verification. Thanks to Zilliqa's consensus mechanism, the ecological footprint of mining has considerably been reduced. Only 1 minute out of every 2-3 hours is needed to mine ZIL, allowing one to dual-mine other chains at the same time.
