in new and powerful ways. Counterparty is a platform without its own blockchain; rather, it embeds its data into Bitcoin transactions. While the nodes of the Bitcoin network ignore the data embedded in these transactions, the nodes of Counterparty recognise and interpret them. Smart contracts can be written in the same language used by Ethereum. However, unlike Ethereum, no consensus protocol is used to validate the results of computations . Counterparty has its own currency, which can be transferred between users, and be spent for executing contracts. Unlike Ethereum, nodes do not obtain fees for executing contracts; rather, the fees paid by clients are destroyed, and nodes are indirectly rewarded from the inflation of the currency. This mechanism is called proof-of-burn.

Its aim is to develop a decentralized internet computer that will become the cloud 3.0. It is registered as a non-profit foundation in Zug, Switzerland, and operates research centers in Palo Alto, California and in Germany. DFINITY is based on a unique consensus algorithm called Threshold Relay, leveraging the properties of the BLS Threshold Signature scheme. DFINITY’s consensus mechanism has four layers. The first layer provides registered and Sybil-resistant client identities. On the second layer is a decentralized random beacon.On the third layer is a blockchain that is driven by the random beacon through a probabilistic mechanism for leader ranking. On the fourth layer is a decentralized notary that provides timestamping and publication guarantees, and is ultimately responsible for near-instant finality.Regarding scaling-out, DFINITY use a combination of crypto technique and novel solutions such as Threshold Relay, Validation Towers, Validation Trees and USCIDs (Unique State Copy IDs) to scale out with miners. By applying those techniques and with an architecture that separates consensus, validation, and storage into separate layers, DFINITY can scale infinitely.

Nxt is easy-to-use, permissionless and gives its users complete freedom in many ways. For example, using the NXT currency as a payment system cannot be restricted, creating a marketplace listing cannot be denied, and, for developers, neither is creating advanced blockchain-based applications through the Nxt Application Program Interface (API). Nxt smart contracts are not Turing complete, but have used a Turing complete scripting layer to create template smart contracts. Users would select the most appropriate template and adjust the parameters to create their own smart contracts. Nxt believes the smart contracts created from these templates should cover most business applications; be easy to code, and ensure safety in the system.

This opens to the door to a network of blockchains, where private and consortium chains can be firewalled from open and public chains like Ethereum without losing the ability to communicate with them on their own terms, not unlike the intranet/internet synergy we see today.At a high level, here are the problems we are attempting to solve:1. Interoperability
Polkadot is designed to enable applications and smart contracts on one blockchain to seamlessly transact with data and assets on other chains.2. Scalability
Polkadot gives the ability to run several parachains*, each processing multiple transactions in parallel, which allows networks to obtain infinite scalability.3. Shared Security
With Polkadot, security is pooled within the network, which means that individual chains can leverage collective security without having to start from scratch to gain traction and trust.

RootStock (now RSK) is a smart-contract peer-to-peer platform built on top of the Bitcoin blockchain. Its goal is to add value and functionality to the core Bitcoin network by the implementation of sophisticated smart contracts as a sidechain.
RSK’s blockchain is secured by Bitcoin merge-mining, rewarding Bitcoin Miners with an additional revenue stream and allowing them to participate in the Smart Contract revolution. Bitcoins can be transferred to the RSK sidechain where they become “SmartBitcoins” (1BTC = 1SBTC). Conversely, they can also be transferred back into Bitcoins at any time. SBTC is not minted nor has pre-mined coins, therefore has no speculative value which is why RSK’s solution complements Bitcoin rather than competing with it.

The operations of a regular blockchain are implemented as a purely functional module abstracted into a shell responsible for network operations.Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cryptonote, etc. can all be represented within Tezos by implementing the proper interface to the network layer. Most importantly, Tezos supports meta upgrades: the protocols can evolve by amending their own code. To achieve this, Tezos begins with a seed protocol defining a procedure for stakeholders to approve amendments to the protocol, including amendments to the voting procedure itself. This is not unlike philosopher Peter Suber’s Nomic, a game built around a fully introspective set of rules.In addition, Tezos’s seed protocol is based on a pure proof-of-stake system and supports Turing complete smart contracts. Its proof-of-stake approach is novel, because the validator pool grows organically with the growth of the network. It has therefore been called `liquid` proof-of-stake by some. Tezos is implemented in OCaml, a powerful functional programming language offering speed, an unambiguous syntax and semantics, and an ecosystem making Tezos a good candidate for formal proofs of correctness.

The project's primary goal is to create a blockchain protocol, called `ClearingHouse`, which would allow the building of fully decentralized exchanges and issuing of new currencies, as well as asset tracking, betting, digital voting, reputation management and going as far as allowing to form the basis of fully decentralized marketplaces. According to the project's management, these kind of services (or `sidechains`) often face resistance from core Bitcoin developers when attempting to buil them on top of Bitcoin's own blockchain - hence the reason for launching the new cryptocoin. Viacoin's launch was accompanied by much attention in the media - especially because of the coin's explosive price growth (VIA reached market capitalisation of US$1 million in just a few days of trading), but also because the project was joined by Peter Todd, a well-known and experienced Bitcoin developer.

Each account is generated from a mnemonic seed and a derived private key. Ordinary transaction fees are fixed at 0.001 WAVES, with a 0.003 WAVES fee for DEX transactions and a fixed 1 WAVES fee for token creation.AlgorithmWaves is a Leased Proof-of-Stake system. Nodes are rewarded by transaction fees, and additionally the Miners Reward Token (MRT), which is a temporary measure designed to increase mining participation until adoption increases to levels where nodes are independently profitable. Waves is non-inflationary, and there are no block rewards.Waves-NG is different to most blockchain consensus methods. Instead of selecting a miner retrospectively, who then generates a block containing pending transactions, Waves chooses a miner in advance and allows them to add new transactions to the next block as soon as they arrive. Transactions are therefore added to the blockchain as quickly as network latency allows, and blocks are confirmed in around 1 minute.Custom tokensWaves makes it extremely easy to create, distribute, transfer, trade and even destroy custom blockchain tokens. It takes less than 60 seconds and a fixed fee of 1 WAVES to issue a token, which can be reissuable or non-reissuable (i.e., inflationary or fixed supply), as required. Tokens have a unique id number, but tokens can have the same name to avoid squatting.Smart contractsNoting the problems that have occurred with Ethereum’s implementation of Turing complete smart contracts, Waves has started by implementing simple account controls such as balance freezing and multi-sig transactions. Turing-complete transactions will follow, but these will have fixed fees and the resources required to execute them will be known in advance, avoiding some of the potential attack vectors and edge cases that have affected Ethereum.Decentralized exchangeWaves features a decentralised exchange (DEX), built into the client. All tokens on the Waves platform are automatically listed on DEX and can immediately be traded against any other token as soon as they are created.Waves DEX uses a combination of centralised Matcher nodes with blockchain settlement to allow highly secure and private trading, in real-time, without having to wait for the next block for orders to execute.
