Achain (ACT)

Achain Blockchain (referred to as Achain) (Symbol: ACT) is committed to building a boundless blockchain world, founded in 2015. Blockchain now is considered as one of the technological innovations of the greatest potential and creativity in the world. There were three key turning points in the human history: The First Industrial Revolution, marked by machines replacing manual labor, the Second Industrial Revolution, followed by the inter-combustion engine and other mass production techniques, and the Third Industrial Revolution, driven by computer technology, nuclear energy, space technology and bioengineering. However, the foundation of our relations of production has remained the same: it is still confined into a centralized, top-down, pyramid structure. The more complicated this structure gets and the more levels it generates, the more difficult it is to ensure efficiency. Blockchain, also known as "the value network", is a decentralized and entrusted network that achieves peer-to-peer value exchanges. Achain believes that blockchain technology is the innovation to reform the current relations of production and pave the way for the next longawaited revolution in the history of mankind. With the help of Achain, we can create a world where people are directly connected, trusted, collaborative, peer-to-peer-exchanged and value-driven under social consensuses.

Quantstamp (QSP)

Quantstamp (Symbol: QSP) is the first smart contract security-auditing protocol. The Quantstamp protocol solves the smart contract security problem by creating a scalable and cost-effective system to audit all smart contracts on the Ethereum network. Over time, we expect every Ethereum smart contract to use the Quantstamp protocol to perform a security audit because security is essential. The protocol consists of two parts: (1) An automated and upgradeable software verification system that checks Solidity programs. The conflict-driven distributed SAT solver requires a large amount of computing power, but will be able to catch increasingly sophisticated attacks over time; (2) An automated bounty payout system that rewards human participants for finding errors in smart contracts. The purpose of this system is to bridge the gap while moving towards the goal of full automation. The Quantstamp protocol relies on a distributed network of participants to mitigate the effects of bad actors, provide the required computing power and provide governance. Each participant uses Quantstamp Protocol (QSP) tokens to pay for, receive, or improve upon verification services. Below are the different types of participants: (1) Contributors receive QSP tokens as an invoice for contributing software for verifying Solidity programs. All contributed code will be open source so that the community can have confidence in its efficacy. Most Contributors will be security experts. Contributions are voted in via the governance mechanism; (2) Validators receive QSP tokens for running the Quantstamp validation node, a specialized node in the Ethereum network. Verifiers only need to contribute computing resources and do not need security expertise; (3) Bug Finders receive QSP tokens as a bounty for submitting bugs which break smart contracts; (4) Contract Creators pay QSP tokens to get their smart contract verified. As the number of smart contracts grows exponentially, we expect demand from Contract Creators to grow commensurately; (5) Contract Users will have access to results of the smart contract security audits; and (6) Voters: The governance system is a core feature of the protocol. The validation smart contract is designed to be modular and upgradeable based on token holder voting (time-locked multi-sig). This governance mechanism reduces the chance of upgrade forks and decentralizes influence of the founding team over time.

By using the Bitcoin's distributed ledger network as well as Counterparty's built-in scripting language, real-world transactions can now be converted into code and executed automatically with no need for an intermediary. XCP stands for stake in the Counterparty protocol, and is the voting currency which is used to decide through voting by the community. XCP was issued by "burning" bitcoins, which involved sending coins to an unspendable address in exchange for XCP, assuring an even and fair distribution of the currency. In January 2014, over 2,100 bitcoins were burned, creating about 2.6 million XCP.

Neblio (NEBL)

The Neblio (Symbol: NEBL) Blockchain Platform is a development system built to simplify and expedite the development and deployment of decentralized applications on the Neblio Blockchain, and potentially other blockchain networks in the near future. Complexity and incompetent developer skillsets are seen as the major obstacles hindering the adoption of blockchain technology for developing distributed applications in the business worlds. To win these obstacles, the Neblio Platform is developed from the start for enterprise distributed application development. A suite of RESTful APIs will enable developers to intuitively interact with the Neblio blockchain network without having to comprehend the intricate details of blockchain system. Developers that are accustomed with using RESTful APIs to work with today's traditional databases will convenient to develop apps that instead accept the Neblio Blockchain to access and store information. Deploying a new Neblio node to develop your app on the Neblio Network will be as easy as starting a Docker container. In enterprises where an application or group of applications may require to run on a private blockchain, Neblio's open source nature, as well as the Business Services, allow that private deployment to be comfortable.

RChain (RHOC)

The open-source RChain (Symbol: RHOC) project is building a decentralized, economic, censorship-resistant, public compute infrastructure and blockchain. It will host and execute programs popularly referred to as "smart contracts". It will be trustworthy, scalable, concurrent, with proof-of-stake consensus and content delivery. Using smart contracts, a broad array of fully-scalable decentralized applications (dApps) can be built on the top of this platform. DApps may address areas such as identity, tokens, timestamping, financial services, monetized content delivery, Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), exchanges, reputation, private social networks, marketplaces, and many more. The RChain Network implements direct node-to-node communication, where each node runs the RChain platform and a set of dApps on the top of it. The heart of an RChain is the Rho Virtual Machine (RhoVM) Execution Environment, which runs multiple RhoVMs that are each executing a smart contract. These execute concurrently and are multi-threaded. This concurrency, which is designed around on the formal models of mobile process calculi, along with an application of compositional namespaces, allows for what are in effect multiple blockchains per node. This multi-chain, independently executing virtual machine instances is in sharp contrast to a "global compute" design which constrains transactions to be executed sequentially, on a single virtual machine. In addition, each node can be configured to subscribe to and process the namespaces (blockchains) in which it is interested. Like other blockchains, achieving consensus across nodes on the state of the blockchain is essential. RChain's protocol for replication and consensus is called Casper and is a proof-of-stake protocol. Similar to Ethereum, a contract starts out in one state, many nodes receive a signed transaction, and then their RhoVM instances execute that contract to its next state. An array of node operators, or "bonded validators" apply the consensus algorithm to crypto-economically verify that the entire history of state configurations and state transitions, of the RhoVM instance, are accurately replicated in a distributed data store. The blockchain contracts (aka smart contracts, processes, or programs), including system contracts included in the installation are written in the RChain general-purpose language "Rholang" (Reflective higher-order language). Derived from the rho-calculus computational formalism, Rholang supports internal programmatic concurrency. It formally expresses the communication and coordination of many processes executing in parallel composition. Rholang naturally accommodates industry trends in code mobility, reactive/monadic API's, parallelism, asynchronicity, and behavioral types.

As of 30 June 2015, the 100 billionth Dogecoin has been mined. The currency has earned traction as an Internet tipping system, in which social media users award Dogecoin tips to other users for contributing interesting or noteworthy content. The phrase "To the moon!" is used to represent the overall sentiment of the coin's increasing value by many members of the Dogecoin community. Thanks to crowdfunding efforts, a gold coin representing the cryptocurrency is scheduled to reach the Moon's surface in 2019.

ZCoin (XZC)

a cryptocurrency proposed by Johns Hopkins University professor Matthew D. Green and graduate students Ian Miers and Christina Garman as an extension to the bitcoin protocol that would add true cryptographic anonymity to bitcoin transactions. Zerocoin was first implemented into a fully functional cryptocurrency released to the public by Poramin Insom, as the Zcoin.[1] Zerocoin provides anonymity by the introduction of a separate mixing service known as zerocoin that is stored in the bitcoin blockchain. Though originally proposed for use with the bitcoin network, zerocoin could be integrated into any cryptocurrency.

Enigma (ENG)

a decentralized computation platform with guaranteed privacy. Our goal is to enable developers to build 'privacy by design', end-to-end decentralized applications, without a trusted third party. Enigma is private. Using secure multi-party computation (sMPC or MPC), data queries are computed in a distributed way, without a trusted third party. Data is split between different nodes, and they compute functions together without leaking information to other nodes. Specifically, no single party ever has access to data in its entirety; instead, every party has a meaningless (i.e., seemingly random) piece of it. Enigma is scalable. Unlike blockchains, computations and data storage are not replicated by every node in the network. Only a small subset perform each computation over different parts of the data. The decreased redundancy in storage and computations enables more demanding computations. The key new utility Enigma brings to the table is the ability to run computations on data, without having access to the raw data itself. For example, a group of people can provide access to their salary, and together compute the average wage of the group. Each participant learns their relative position in the group, but learns nothing about other members' salaries. It should be made clear that this is only a motivating example. In practice, any program can be securely evaluated while maintaining the inputs a secret. Today, sharing data is an irreversible process; once it is sent, there is no way to take it back or limit how it is used. Allowing access to data for secure computations is reversible and controllable, since no one but the original data owner(s) ever see the raw data. This presents a fundamental change in current approaches to data analysis.

RailBlocks (XRB)

a decentralized digital currency and open source programming venture like Bitcoin and many other cryptocurrencies. XRB is intended to be a low inertness, high-throughput digital money with short exchange affirmation. Different from other digital currencies, XRB doesn't require any exceptional equipment and tools to mine. It is, however, conveyed through the RainBlocks' fixture in light of human work given by assuring and fathoming captcha which makes it unique. RaiBlocks employ the BLAKE2 hashing calculation.

Request Network (REQ)

a decentralized network that enables anyone to request a payment in a secure way. All of the information regarding the payment process is stored in a decentralized authentic ledger. Thanks to the distributed blockchain technology, this process is cheaper, easier, and more secure and allows for a wide range of automation. Aiming at becoming the backbone of world trade, Request has a general ledger with following features: (1) Universal: support global transactions, regardless of currency, legislation or language and (2) Smart: different from the inefficient existing standard accounting book, RequestNetwork has a computerized trade code as well as the management of a multitude of payment terms. Today, their absence makes the whole system inefficient and absolutely unready for the digital and IoT (Internet Of Things) revolution that is taking place. RequestNetwork can be seen as a layer on top of Ethereum2 which enable requests for payments that satisfy a legal framework. It is also possible to see currencies as tools to complete RequestNetwork transactions. In this sense, RequestNetwork is more global than any currency.

Gnosis (GNO)

a decentralized prediction market developed on the Ethereum protocol. Gnosis offers an open platform for anyone to forecast the outcome of any event and plans to grossly simplify the creation of customized prediction market applications. We consider financial and betting applications as ripe for innovation applying our open and decentralized model. We are looking forward to a future in which prediction markets are adopted to optimize an unbelievable range of processes and to provide a platform for information sales. Gnosis is a ConsenSys-backed project and was founded by Martin Koeppelmann and Stefan George who were previously the fathers of Fairlay.com, a centralized Bitcoin prediction market. Together with ConsenSys, we are excellently positioned to execute on our ambitious vision.

Byteball (GBYTE)

a decentralized system enabling tamper proof storage of arbitrary data, including data that denotes an exchangeable value such as currencies, house titles, debt, shares, etc. Storage units are connected to each other so that each storage unit includes one or more hashes of earlier storage units, which serves to both confirm earlier units and establish their partial order. The links among units form a DAG (directed acyclic graph). No single central entity manages or coordinates admission of new units into the database; anyone is allowed to add a new unit if he/she signs it and pays an amount of money equal to the size of added data in bytes. The fee is gathered by other users who later confirm the newly added unit by including its hash within their units. Once new units are added, each earlier unit obtains more and more confirmations by later units with its hash, directly or indirectly.

Litecoin (LTC)

a digital currency and is working based on open source software published according to the MIT/X11 license. Litecoin currency is created and transferred relying on an open source protocol of cryptography and is controlled in a distributed manner by the Litecoin community. Although Litecoin is considered to be technically similar to Bitcoin (BTC), it has some methodological enhancements over Bitcoin and many other digital currencies. Two important improvements are the implementation of Segregated Witness, adoption of Lightning Network. The enhancement enables a higher number of transactions to be processed by the system in a specific time frame, decreasing likely bottlenecks which are often seen in Bitcoin system. Litecoin's payment cost is near zero and its speed is nearly four times faster than that of Bitcoin. Litecoin was published on GitHub in 2011 by Charlie Lee, a former Google programmer. It was a clone of the Bitcoin Core client with a difference of block time (2.5 minutes). Litecoin also increases the maximum number of coins, another hashing algorithm (scrypt).

Zcash (ZEC)

a digital currency similar to Bitcoin but with a few distinct functionalities. Like Bitcoin it uses on a decentralized blockchain but Zcash provides anonymous features, by not showing the transaction amounts and associated parties. In Bitcoin if you know users' address you can track their operations and view all the involved addresses as well as their exchanged amount. In other words, the amount of currency moving around is available to the public. With ZCash all the information regarding the amount and involved parties is encrypted. Zcash employs a unique proof to ensure the network security called Zk-SNARK, or proof construction. This mechanism enables the system to keep a secure ledger of balances without publishing parties or exchanged volumes involved in transactions. This is possible due to the use of zero-knowledge proofs. In cryptographic research, a zero-knowledge protocol or zero-knowledge proof is a technique by which one network member (the prover) can prove to another member (the verifier) that a given statement is correct, without communicating any information apart from the fact that the statement is certainly correct. In Bitcoin, each full node maintains a balance of what is held by each address in the Unspent Transaction Output database - with each transaction being confirmed to unlock that output.

Iota (MIOTA)

a digital currency that strives to build itself as the fuel for effective machine-to-machine (M2M) transactions. It employs directed acyclic graphs (DAG) rather than a general blockchain, allowing several features like zero-cost transactions, tremendous scalability or offline transactions. In Q1 2017 the Iota Foundation was established in Berlin, Germany Iota is the first virtual currency without using a blockchain technology. Its core algorithm is "Tangle", which is based on DAG algorithm. In a traditional blockchain technology, multiple transactions are combined in each block before this combination of transactions is checked and confirmed by miners. In the Tangle technology, every individual transaction establishes a new block and is essentially confirmed by itself: To successfully manage a transaction, members first have to prove two randomly chosen transactions in the IOTA network. This is accomplished with help of a very basic version of Proof-of-Work (PoW). Yet, the confirmation costs are basically near zero, because the required PoW is so low that almost any single device is able to independently perform it.

Nav Coin (NAV)

a digital currency, mainly based on Bitcoin platform. While it provides all the benefits of Bitcoin, it has a few other added benefits such as high-speed transactions, the ability to receive 5% on the amount of NAV in the users' wallet, and optional anonymous payments. A key difference is that we use the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) algorithm to secure the network, instead of the Proof-of Work (PoW) adopted by most other currencies including Bitcoin. The benefit of using PoS is that it's much more lightweight and users don't have to equip with huge servers to mine NAV. All users need to do is install the wallet, turn on 'staking' mode, and earn 5% on the amount in the wallet.

Tether (USDT)

a digital token which is backed by fiat currency, presenting organizations and individuals with a robust and distributed method of transferring value while using a familiar accounting system. Tether maintains a ONE-TO-ONE reserve ratio between its token and real-world fiat currency. The discovery of blockchains is a cryptographically secured and auditable worldwide ledger. Asset-backed token issuers and other market members can take advantage of blockchain technology, along with embedded consensus operations, to transact in familiar, less volatile money and assets. To maintain accountability and to guarantee stability in exchange price, the team proposes a method to sustain a ONE-TO-ONE reserve ratio between a cryptocurrency token, called tethers, and its corresponding realworld asset, fiat money. This method utilises the Bitcoin blockchain, Proof of Reserves, and other audit methods by professional auditors to verify that issued tokens are completely backed and reserved at all times.

TenX (PAY)

a digital token, built by TenX - a Singapore-based startup, offering the solution of money conversion - its Visa debit card. The card will immediately exchange digital currencies into fiat money: the dollars, euros or yen. Initially, it supports 8 cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Dash, and Augur. More digital coins will be offered in the future. TenX raised $80 million during their ICO in mid-2017 - half will be allocated on expanding business and the rest will give liquidity for a cryptocurrency exchange. Their PAY token will be tradeable first on Bittrex. Before ICO, TenX got $120,000 from angel investors and $1 million in a seed fund managed by Fenbushi Capital. TenX currently charges a fee of 2% cut from each purchase processed with the card. A limit of $2,000 per year at each card is imposed, but the customers can increase the limit after their identity validation. There have been more than 10,000 orders by July 2017. In July 2017, the company performed more than $100,000 of transactions a month and is aiming at $100 million a month and a million customers by the end of 2018. TenX doesn't expect to become profitable in the next 2 years as it concentrates on growing services.

Dent (DENT)

a distributed exchange for mobile data. It's based on the Ethereum blockchain, allowing mobile data to be sold, bought or donated through an automated bidding process much like currencies or goods. The data packages are smart contracts in Ethereum. The DENT token is required to purchase mobile data within the Dent platform. DENT allows a "Data Sharing Economy" where users are able to easily buy, sell their mobile data, from any user to any user. DENT facilitates automated purchase capability of data packages for consumers and iOT devices. .

Civic (CVC)

a distributed identity ecosystem that enables on-demand, secure and low-cost access to identity verification through the decentralized blockchain. Through a digital Identity platform, members can set up their own virtual identity and save it along with their personally identifiable data on the device. This information will go through a verification process conducted by the identity validators on the platform and then ported into the decentralized blockchain where service providers can gain the access with the proper permission granted by the user. CVC is an Ethereum-based token utilized by service providers who are looking to acquire information about members. The participants can make a payment in CVC. The smart contract flatform employed will then see funds delivered to both the validator and the identity owner.

Sia (SC)

a distributed storage platform. Users all over the globe can contribute disk storage from their computers to create a distributed network. Any user with Sia cryptos can rent storage from hosts on Sia network. This is achieved via smart" storage contracts stored on the decentralized Sia blockchain. The smart contract system generates a payment to the host once the host has held the file for a reasonable amount of time. If the host fails to keep the file, the host does not get paid. The distributed nature of the Sia storage network facilitates many optimizations in latency, reliability, throughput, and security. The nature of distributed Sia network allows members with storage to get paid, lowering the barrier to entry and decreasing the overall price of cloud storage. Members can rent storage using Siacoins and host their storage to the network in return of compensation in the form of Siacoins.

Bitcoin Gold (BTG)

a fork of the Bitcoin blockchain. At block 491407, Bitcoin Gold miners will begin creating blocks with a new proof-of-work algorithm, and this will cause a bifurcation of the Bitcoin blockchain. The original Bitcoin blockchain will continue on unaltered, but a new branch of the blockchain will split off from the original chain. The new branch is a distinct blockchain with the same transaction history as Bitcoin up until the fork, but then diverges from it. As a result of this process, a new cryptocurrency is born. The purpose of Bitcoin Gold is to make Bitcoin mining decentralized again. Satoshi Nakamoto's idealistic vision of "one CPU one vote" has been superseded by a reality where the manufacture and distribution of mining equipment has become dominated by a very small number of entities, some of which have engaged in abusive practices against individual miners and the Bitcoin network as a whole. By changing Bitcoin's proof-of-work algorithm from SHA256 to Equihash, all of the specialized SHA256 mining equipment will be obsolete for mining the Bitcoin Gold blockchain. Thus, Bitcoin Gold will provide an opportunity for countless new people around the world to participate in the mining process with widely-available consumer hardware that is manufactured and distributed by reputable mainstream corporations. A more decentralized, democratic mining infrastructure is more resilient and more in line with Satoshi's original vision.

BitBay (BAY)

a free software program that offers need to protect all your online transactions security, especially in places like Craigslist, and eBay Classifieds Hoobly. There interact removes all central services of online transactions and allows buyers and sellers directly, safe and reliable. BitBay takes power away from the mega-companies such as Amazon and eBay, the huge profits harvesting to take by a percentage of each transaction and hands over all the power back to you, the consumer. It allows only two parties to trade without centralized build on a "pay-to-play" network that has questionable safety and integrity.

a new form of cryptographic asset in that it is a Decentralised Autonomous Organisation or DAO for short. DAO are basically Companies written in code that are there to perform a set of functions with holders of the tokens voting in relation to the number of tokens they hold. The Digix DAO gives users the right to profits in the trading of Digix tokens (DGX) which own the right to gold stored in vault in Singapore. So if people trade 20 gold bars per day - the Digix DAO token holders will have the profits of the commission from those trades distributed equally amongst themselves.

Vertcoin (VTC)

a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency and software project. It is a Bitcoin-like blockchain currency with additional features such as Stealth Address technology and ASIC resistant Proof-of-Work (PoW) function. The main difference between Bitcoin and Vertcoin is the latter's resistance to centralized mining and the long term promise of Vertcoin developers to keep it that way. Vertcoin has already forked two times to a new PoW function because of a veritable threat of centralized mining. The Vertcoin Wallet can be downloaded from Vertcoin's official website.

The decentralized NEM blockchain is used in a commercial blockchain called Mijin, which is being experimented by financial institutions and private companies around the world. NEM was inspired by Nxt. Stakes of NEM were to be issued to those who contributed to the project in quantities of 2.25 Million XEM. The Alpha version was published on June 25, 2014 and then the Beta production version was started on October 20, 2014. NEM published its first stable release version on March 31, 2015. The next large update to the NEM ecosystem is called Catapult that will be released soon.

EOS (EOS)

a platform that implements a blockchain architecture intended to facilitate vertical and horizontal scaling of distributed applications (i.e., the "EOS.IO Software"). This is accomplished by an operating system-like architecture upon which applications can be constructed. The application can have accounts, databases, authentication, the scheduling of applications and asynchronous communication across many CPU cores and nodes. The resulting technology is a blockchain structure that has the potential to grow to millions of transactions each second, reduces user fees and enables easy and quick deployment of distributed applications. EOS.IO is built by block.one, a Cayman Islands company. With employees and advisors throughout the globe, the organization concentrates on business-grade technology solutions, including blockchain system development. EOS tokens are ERC-20 tokens disseminated on the Ethereum blockchain compatible to a relevant ERC-20 smart contract. Any launch of an EOS Platform will be made by participants of the community independent of block.one. Third parties starting the EOS Platform may remove, adjust or enhance the EOS.IO Software even after starting the EOS Platform.

Dash (DASH)

a privacy-centric cryptocurrency with instantaneous transactions. It follows the Bitcoin software architecture, but Dash implements a two-tier network to enhance the performance. Dash allows you to remain unknown while you make purchases, equivalent to cash. Different from Bitcoin in which transactions are announced to the blockchain network and the public can determine who transfer them or to whom, with Dash the anonymization technique makes the Dash network unlikely to trace the transactions. This is critical because the blockchain network is open to anybody online - a big disadvantage for those don't want their transaction records and balances to be openly accessible. Dash does this by a mixing protocol employing an innovative distributed network of nodes called Masternodes, circumventing the need for a trusted third party that could jeopardize the integrity of the network. Dash exchanging activities are almost spontaneously confirmed by the Masternodes network. This is a significant improvement on Bitcoin's network, where confirmations spend much longer time because all the job is done by the mining peers.

Blocknet (BLOCK)

a project striving to create a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) protocol between nodes on the blockchain-based network of participating digital currencies. Blocknet was originated from XCurrency (XC), but it was later extended by various other blockchain projects of whom have representation on the Board of Blocknet Foundation. This groundbreaking initiative allows open-ended communication and delivery of services among users of participating digital currencies, thus effectively uniting the blockchain community. To maintain Blocknet's network, the project distributed its own "tokens of value" as a reward to those who participate in supporting a healthy network. This makes Blocknet (Symbol: BLOCK) a Proof-of-Stake digital cash which is traded on several altcoin exchanges.

BitShares (BTS)

an essential decentralized multi-user database with update permissions which is managed by a defined set of rules and public key cryptography. Software is open source, easy to copy and modify, and most importantly protected by free speech. That's why it's almost impossible to stop BitShares at the layer short of a global event that destroys almost all digital data. The cryptographic software was attempted to work as a weapon and impose export controls by the government. But in the end, the government failed to control the spread of free software. In the case of BitShares the software is in the Public Domain.

BitcoinDark (BTCD)

an innovative cryptocurrency platform that attempts to overcome many of the disadvantages from the current world of finance. Although bitcoin paved the way for many other cryptocurrencies, many of these - including bitcoin itself - have become seriously centralized through corporate interests and reliance on infrastructure-heavy Proof-of-Work (PoW) mining.

The protocol connects the atomic world and the byte world to promote the interaction and circulation of assets between two worlds. Bytom has three layers: application, contract, and data transmission. The application layer is mobile-friendly and easy for developers to develop asset management applications. The second layer utilizes genesis contract and controls contracts to issue and manage asset, facilitating extensible BUTXO of UTXO model at the lowest layer, enhancing EVM and using introspection mechanism to prevent deadlock in Turning complete. The data transmission layer applies DLT technology to accomplish asset issuance, spending, transfer and other operations. Bytom uses Power-of-Work (PoW) algorithm that is compatible to AI ASIC-chips.

Populous (PPT)

an invoice and trade finance system built using the advancement in blockchain technology. Populous employs Stable tokens, Z Score formula, Smart Contracts, and more to produce a unique trading environment for investors and invoice traders from all around the globe. Because Populous is created on the Ethereum Virtual Machine, this has given the opportunity to build a platform that empowers everyone to engage in an alternative finance marketplace which is currently available only to banks, financial institutions, wealthy individuals, and governments. So by allowing investors to use cryptocurrency on our platform, investors from any part of the world, can invest in an invoice sold to buy an invoice seller from any part of the world. For example, an investor from China or Japan can invest in invoices sold by UK businesses and vice versa. To create a solid trading environment, we use pegged tokens which are based on Ethereum ERC 20. While banks and other financial organizations join to create financial platforms on the blockchain, Populous implements finance on the blockchain which is unique in a sense that we are not held to abide by the same regulatory rules which restrict banks and other financial institutions from accepting cryptocurrencies in a blockchain world.

Request Network Token (RDN)

an off-chain scaling solution for performing ERC20-compliant token transfers on the Ethereum blockchain. It is Ethereum's version of Bitcoin's Lightning Network, enabling near-instant, low-fee, scalable, and privacy-preserving payments. The Raiden Network allows secure transfers of tokens between participants without the need for global consensus. This is achieved using digitally signed and hash-locked transfers, called balance proofs, fully collateralized by previously setup on-chain deposits. This concept, illustrated in figure 1, is known as payment channel technology. Payment channels allow for practically unlimited, bidirectional transfers between two participants, as long as the net sum of their transfers does not exceed the deposited tokens. These transfers can be performed instantaneously and without any involvement of the actual blockchain itself, except for an initial one-time on-chain creation and an eventual closing of the channel. A Raiden balance proof is a binding agreement enforced by the Ethereum blockchain. Digital signatures make sure that neither party can back out of any of the value transfers contained therein, as long as at least one of the participants decides to present it to the blockchain. Since nobody else other than the two participants has access to the tokens deposited in the payment channel's smart contract, a Raiden balance proof is as binding as an on-chain transaction. The true strength of Raiden lies in its network protocol. Since opening and closing a payment channel between two peers still requires on-chain transactions, creating channels between all possible peers becomes infeasible. As it turns out, however, you do not need a direct payment channel between a payer and a payee if there exists at least one route through a network of channels that connects the two parties, as shown in figure 2. This network and its associated protocol for routing and interlocking channel transfers is called the Raiden Network. In addition, payment channel transfers, in contrast to on-chain transactions, do not require any fees. Intermediaries within the greater network, however, will want to charge fees on a low percentage basis for providing their own channels to the network, leading to complex routing and a competitive channel fee market. The Raiden protocol aims to facilitate this market by using both protocol-level features and optional auxiliary services.

KyberNetwork (KNC)

an on-chain protocol which facilitates instantaneous exchange and conversion of digital assets including crypto tokens as well as digital currencies such as Ether, Bitcoin or ZCash with assured liquidity. KyberNetwork will be an innovative crypto-exchanging and API system that achieves several high-grade operating properties of a financial exchange including trustless, distributed execution, immediate transactions and high liquidity. In addition, KyberNetwork also presents payment APIs that enables Ethereum accounts to comfortably receive and send payments from and to any crypto tokens. For instance, any merchant can employ KyberNetwork APIs to support users in paying in any crypto tokens, and in return, the merchant can get payments in Ether (ETH) or other selected tokens. Although operating on the Ethereum network, KyberNetwork's roadmap involves ing supporting cross-chain exchange between different cryptocurrencies utilizing relays and innovative protocols such as Polkadot and Cosmos. Ethereum accounts will be able to safely get payment from Bitcoin, ZCash networks, and other internet currencies via KyberNetwork payment APIs, through this trustless payment service. Furthermore, derivatives will be offered to lessen the exposure to the risk of volatilities associated the members of KyberNetwork Crystals (KNC).

There have been over 240 developers who have contributed to the Monero project, including 30 developers. Forums and chat communities are always active. More importantly, Monero's Research Lab, Community Developers, and Core Development Team are steadily striking to advance of cryptocurrency privacy and security. Monero is not a company.

Steem (STEEM)

the basic account's unit on the Steem blockchain. All other tokens derive their value from that of STEEM. Generally speaking, STEEM should be kept for short periods of time when liquidity is required. Someone trying to enter or exit the Steem platform will have to buy or sell STEEM. STEEM should be converted into SP or SMD once it has been purchased to alleviate the influence of dilution over the long-term. STEEM is continually expanding in supply by 100% annually due to non-SMD incentives. Someone holding STEEM without converting it to SP is diluted by approximately 0.19% per day. While the rate may be high, the transactions take less than 10 days; it is still cheaper than the fees for credit card processing. Moreover, the everyday token generation is minimal next to the daily volatility. Anyone who buys Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency and sells in 10 days could easily lose at least 3% due to price fluctuations. Those who buy Bitcoin and sell it the same day will usually pay over 0.4% in market fees alone. In other words, the inflation rate is certainly insignificant while the typical individual will hold STEEM. The majority of inflation is an accounting artifact rather than the exact reallocation of wealth. 90% of non-SMD inflation is distributed back to current STEEM holders proportional to the STEEM's SP balance value, making inflation more of a "split". Only about 10% of non-SMD inflation rearranges ownership in the network.
