Cosmos vs Zipper vs AION
What problem does this service solve?
Cosmos is building a decentralized network of independent parallel blockchains. Their goal is to provide the infrastructure for anyone to be able to make their own blockchain that will be able to operate with others, and will allow transfers of value between them. | Zipper aims to enable cross-chain transactions of value and communication. | AION is building a cross-chain platform to connect other blockchain platforms. |

Company Description
Cosmos is a cross-chain protocol that is working to establish a standardized way for blockchains to inter-operate. It has been called the internet of blocchains. Cosmos is building a standardized protocol for multiple blockchains to operate freely together, and allow transfers of value between them. Cosmos is made up of a network of blocckhains called zones. Each of these zones will be powered by a the Tendermint consensus protocol. Cosmos will act as a hub, that ties the zones together and manages their coordination. The Cosomos token called ATOM was released in an ICO that raised $53 million, but it will not be traded until the platform is launched. | Zipper is developing a cross-chain messaging and transaction network. It's powered by the ZIP token. The company is backed by Qtum, OKEX, and other established blockchain companies. | AION calls itself a 3rd generation blockchain network, and is primarily focused on connecting blockchain networks. AOIN aims to solve the interoperability issues facing the various blockchains, and be the connecting bridge between them. AION's cross-chain platform has different consensus mechanisms for interchain and on-chain transactions. The on-chain consensus mechanism combines BFT (Byzantine Fault Tolerance), dPoS (Delegated Proof-of-Stake) and a new neural network inspired verification algorithm known as Proof-of-Intelligence. |
