A new blockchain and smart transaction platform that is easier to use, more efficient, and secure. We believe that cryptocurrency should be easier to use than cash, harder to lose, and nearly impossible to steal. Anyone who wants to validate transactions should be able to farm without single-use hardware or a big electricity bill. Chia Network develops a blockchain and smart transaction platform created by the inventor of BitTorrent, Bram Cohen. It implements the first new Nakamoto consensus algorithm since Bitcoin in 2008. Proofs of Space and Time replace energy intensive “proofs of work.” Chialisp is Chia’s new on chain programming language that is powerful, easy to audit, and secure. It will make cryptocurrency easier to use than cash. Reference smart transactions currently available are: Colored coins, rate-limited wallets, and distributed identity wallets.

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.

Obyte is a distributed ledger based on the directed acyclic graph (DAG). Unlike centralized ledgers and blockchains, access to the Obyte ledger is decentralized, disintermediated, free (as in freedom), equal, and open. Use Bonded Stablecoins website to issue stablecoins pegged to USD or BTC, or create new stablecoins pegged to any other asset or index. Stable+ coins that programmatically appreciate in value, you can earn interest by holding them (e.g. 16% p.a. in USD). Governance tokens whose value grows as more stable+ coins are issued. Use ODEX decentralized exchange or Oswap automated market maker to trade tokens issued on Obyte against each other. ODEX uses off-chain order matching and is as fast as a centralized exchange. Oswap allows to provide liquidity and earn fees from every trade. Obyte allows you to do something that traditional currencies can't: conditional payments. You set a condition when the payee receives the money.

The first interoperable Layer 1 for NFTs. NFT launchpad, NFT marketplace, community-owned, zero gas, carbon neutral (proof-of-stake), secured by 100+ validators. Programmable via CosmWasm, interoperable via Cosmos IBC, Ethereum interoperability via Gravity Bridge. Setting up your project for minting is done via a set of command-line tools. Start by cloning a sample repository, and replacing it with your project contents. Stargaze's sg721 contract allows for off-chain metadata storage. We recommend using a decentralized storage solution such as IPFS. Stargaze NFT metadata follows the OpenSea metadata standards. Create directories to hold images and metadata, and then compile them into a single IPFS CAR (Content Addressable aRchive) file that can be uploaded. After getting the CID for metadata, you set it as the base URL in your contract. This way, the contract knows how to associate each token ID with an individual token URI without having to send the contract a list of URIs.

NEAR is a decentralized application platform that is secure enough to manage high value assets like money or identity and performant enough to make them useful for everyday people, putting the power of the Open Web in their hands. NEAR’s token economy is built around the NEAR token, a unit of value on the platform that enables token holders to use applications on NEAR, participate in network governance, and earn token rewards by staking to the network.

IOST is an ultra-fast, scalable, and secure blockchain network based on the next-generation consensus algorithm “Proof of Believability” (PoB). Led by a team of seasoned experts and backed by world-class investors, our mission is to be the underlying architecture for online services that meet the security and scalability needs of a decentralized economy. High fees and slower transaction times on the Ethereum network have left the door open for new solutions to emerge, and IOST is the pioneering project that has been gaining traction for its superior and revolutionary technology since its main net launch in 2019. The basic technology behind IOST–a decentralized, high throughput blockchain, supersedes 37 high-profile competitors, including EOS and Ethereum, by more than 5 times, per the latest ranking from China’s Center for Information and Industry Development. With 0.5 block time and 8,000 TPS, you can build any application on IOST without concerning about the speed.

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.

A breakthrough concurrent computational system that unshackles the blockchain. RChain is pioneering transparent and secure transactions with an ultra-fast, global-scale technology platform. Cooperative governance and a sustainable economic model make RChain a public utility that can be applied to climate change, data security, digital identity, and many other challenges we are collectively facing. RChain realizes superior scalability and speed by doing intelligent concurrency throughout the network and right-sized validation of every transaction. Transactions now happen with low execution costs and greater efficiency. RChain's decentralized architecture design does not compromise security to achieve scale. Rholang, RChain's contract programming language, lets developers write for concurrency and formally verify all processes. RChain is built in a radically open-source fashion. The contributions of cooperative members enrich and extend the RChain ecosystem.

At Fetch.ai we build tools and infrastructure to enable a decentralized digital economy. Fetch.ai’s network is based around an open-source technology that any user can run to connect to the network, giving access to the power of AI on a world-scale secure dataset, to carry out complex coordination tasks in the modern economy. On this network a series of software agents represent and act on behalf of their owners. These autonomous agents work to provide an optimised service across a variety of ecosystems, to the benefit of both suppliers and consumers. This system has wide potential in many areas. Financial services users can optimize trading, public transport networks could be reconfigured, cities could intelligently adapt to usage by their citizens, the gig economy could be restructured, and energy networks can be connected in a smart grid.

A 3rd generation Blockchain built to serve as a core infrastructure for future decentralized applications. With the ability to process up to 7000 transactions per second with a federated group of 16 rotating validators, Coreum is the fastest blockchain in the world. Using the well-established Tendermint Consensus Engine and Cosmos SDK, Coreum brings a low-latency proof-of-stake blockchain. Applications can be written in many languages and compiled into the modern turing-complete Web Assembly (WASM) before processing. With hundreds of Blockchains currently being used, Coreum deploys a bridge functionality to interoperate with various chains through collateralized wrapping.
