Decred is a blockchain-based cryptocurrency with a strong focus on community input, open governance, and sustainable funding for development. It utilizes a hybrid Proof-of-Work (PoW) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mining system to ensure that a small group cannot dominate the flow of transactions or make changes to Decred without the input of the community. A unit of the currency is called a decred (DCR).

Since 2016, we have been thriving with the only decentralized monetary model that gives users a real voice. We believe that striking a balance between infrastructure owners and currency holders is the only way to build a robust currency now—and for the long-term.

Our platform is built from 100% proven technology. Our modular codebase allows us to enhance our offering with the latest technology without interruption of trading or loss of value. We are proud to say that Decred is completely independent, community funded, and community owned. Its hybrid consensus system ensures that no group can control the flow of transactions or make changes to the currency without the input of the community.

Decred has won accolades from industry experts, investors and the media. Hailed by Crypto Economy as “one of the most interesting current projects, both for the current characteristics and those that will be implemented in the near future,” we are working toward a future where infrastructure supports and empowers its users.

The sharing economy without intermediaries. Origin is a protocol for creating sharing economy marketplaces using the Ethereum blockchain and IPFS.

We empower developers and businesses to build decentralized marketplaces on the blockchain. Our protocol makes it easy to create and manage listings for the fractional usage of assets and services. Buyers and sellers can discover each other, browse listings, make bookings, leave ratings and reviews, and much more.

Zilliqa is the world's first high-throughput public blockchain platform designed to scale to thousands of transactions per second. Zilliqa has been under research and development for two years. It brings the theory of sharding to practice with its novel protocol that increases transaction rates as its network expands.

Zilliqa processes more transactions per second as more mining nodes join the network. This may sound like a natural thing at first, but it turns out to be technically challenging to accomplish, and certainly hasn’t been possible by past blockchain protocols. Getting consensus in a larger crowd is technically harder! Zilliqa’s novel consensus protocol solves this problem. With Zilliqa’s scalability, we can support dApps that demand transaction rates beyond today’s blockchains. Zilliqa only leverages PoW to establish mining identities. This process defends against sybil attacks and is also used to perform network sharding.

Unlike other blockchains though, Zilliqa does not use PoW for consensus. PoW is performed only at larger intervals, not by every miner on every block. Thus, it has a much smaller energy footprint. We’ve stayed with PoW since it has been well studied in the literature and field-tested, while its emerging alternatives (such as PoS) are still under active research.

Ontology provides new high-performance public blockchains that include a series of complete distributed ledgers and smart contract systems.

Ontology blockchain framework supports public blockchain systems and is able to customize different public blockchains for different applications. Ontology supports collaboration amongst chain networks with its various protocol groups.

Ontology will constantly provide common modules on the underlying infrastructure for different kinds of distributed scenarios, such as those for the distributed digital identity framework, distributed data exchange protocol, and so on. Based on specific scenario requirements, Ontology will continue to develop new common modules.

The Graph is a protocol for building decentralized applications quickly on Ethereum and IPFS using GraphQL.

We're building The Graph because we've seen the challenges in getting data off blockchains. We envision The Graph as a truly decentralized ecosystem where the community can collaborate on curating quality data sources available to all. Together we can build a new generation of the web free from data silos and monopolies.

Qtum is an open source Blockchain project that is developed by the Singapore-based Qtum Foundation. Qtum is a hybrid blockchain application platform. Qtum uses proof-of-stake consensus, meaning node operators are rewarded for validating transactions.

Polkadot is a heterogeneous multi‑chain technology. It consists of many parachains with potentially differing characteristics which can make it easier to achieve anonymity or formal verification. Specialised parachains called bridges can be created to link independent chains.
