BTC ( BITCOIN )
Bitcoin is a crypto and digital payment system invented by an unknown programmer, or group of programmers, under the name Satoshi Nakamoto, which was released in 2009 as open-source software. These transactions are verified by network nodes and recorded in a distributed public ledger called "blockchain". As the system operates without a centralised entity or a single administrator, bitcoin is called the first decentralised digital currency. Bitcoin can be exchanged for other currencies, products and services in the markets. As of February 2015, already more than 100,000 merchants and suppliers have accepted Bitcoin as payment. In July 2016, the DIGYCODE refill sale became established in France in order to buy Bitcoin in tobacconists. According to a study produced by the University of Cambridge in 2017, there are 2.9 to 5.8 million unique users using a crypto wallet, the majority of them using Bitcoin.

BNT ( BANCOR )
The Bancor protocol is a blockchain-based discovery system and liquidity mechanism that supports multiple smart contract platforms. The flexibility of these blockchains allows the tokens or token in reserve to be locked and smart tokens to be issued on the Bancor system allowing anyone to instantly buy or liquidate the smart token in exchange for one of their reserve tokens. The BNT is the first smart token on the Bancor system and it will hold a single Ether reserve. Other smart tokens, using the BNT as one of their reserves, connect to the BNT network. The BNT establishes a network dynamic where increased demand for one of the smart tokens in the network increases the demand for the common BNT, which benefits all other smart tokens holding it in reserve.

Golem is a supercomputer, open source, decentralised and accessible to all. It consists of the combined power of the users' machines, from PCs to complete data center. Golem is capable of computing a wide variety of tasks, from CGI rendering, through machine learning to scientific computing. Golem's limits are only defined by the creativity of our developer community. Golem creates a decentralised economy of shared computing power and provides software developers with a flexible, reliable and inexpensive source of computing power. Golem allows users and applications (applicants) to rent the machine cycles of other users (suppliers). Any user, whether a single PC owner or a large data centre, can share resources via Golem and be paid in GNT (Golem Network Tokens) by the requesters. Golem uses a transaction system based on Ethereum to settle payments between suppliers, applicants and software developers. All calculations take place in a sandbox and are completely isolated from the host system. Software developers are at the centre of the Golem ecosystem. Their "Application Registration and Transaction Framework" allows anyone to deploy, distribute and monetise applications in the Golem network.

HOT ( HOLO )
Holo is a framework for creating fully distributed peer-to-peer applications. Holochain is not a blockchain simply because the blockchain uses a data-centric approach, on the contrary, Holo uses an agent-centric approach. The blockchain keeps the same register and is shared by all nodes in the network. With Holochain, each agent manages its own data. Holochain then uses a distributed hash table (DHT) such as BitTorrent or IPFS to share the content and ensure that these entries are always available, even if some nodes are offline. Holo adds distributed validation to manage the data and ensure that the data is correct and the network is secure. Finally, Holo uses a proof of service algorithm to serve applications to others and provide the correct data. All these attributes make Holo extensible to infinity.

LINK ( CHAINLINK )
Chainlink (LINK) is a decentralised network that provides information (called Oracles) to intelligent contracts. Founded in 2017 by Sergey Nazarov and Steve Ellis, Chainlink aims to solve the problem of supplying off-chain information through intelligent contracts for their execution parameters. Smart contracts are designed to be executed automatically when certain parameters are met, but when these parameters exist off-chain, reliance is placed on information sources (oracles) to provide the necessary information. Off-chain oracles tend to be centralised and rely on a third party to provide critical information in a reliable and timely manner. ChainLink aims to break this dependency by providing information to intelligent contracts via a network of decentralised oracles that work together on the Blockchain Link to verify and transmit critical information to those contracts. The ChainLink network enables users who have either a data stream or PLC-carrying information to easily provide information to smart contracts in exchange for the LINK token.

LRC ( Loopring )
Loopring is an open protocol for evolutionary and decentralised exchanges . Loopring 3.0 is our newest, fastest and most visionary protocol. Loopring 3.0 can settle up to 1,400 transactions per second while guaranteeing the same level of security as the underlying Ethereum chain. This is made possible by the use of a construct called zkRollup, and a feature called "Chain Data Availability, or OCDA". If OCDA is disabled, the loopring throughput can be up to 10,500 transactions per second, but the security is reduced to that of the consortium maintaining the data. The average settlement cost for each transaction with Loopring 3.0 is as low as US$0.002, which covers the gas for Ethereum transactions and the cost of proof generation on cloud computing platforms. DEX can further reduce the cost of payment by using cheaper servers in the cloud and GPU-based algorithms.
