Achain is creating a Blockchain-As-A-Service platform for DApp development. It is designed to make it easier for companies to create smart contract powered DApps. Achain has a delegated Proof-of-Stake (dPoS) consensus mechanism and is powered by the ACT coin. One of Achain's main advantages is that is easy to fork. Users can create an independent chain that can be customized. These independent chains can communicate with the main Achain platform with a value exchange protocol that connects them.
