BlackCoin is a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) cryptocurrency created in 2014. Users are rewarded for staking their coins to secure the network. BlackCoin's staking rewards vary between 1% to 8% per year.

Unobtanium is a Proof-of-Work (PoW) cryptocurrency that uses the SHA-256 hashing algorithm. It was designed to serve as a commodity and store of wealth that would be less vulnerable to price fluctuations. The coin's supply is limited to counter inflation, and UNO coins were distributed in a manner that would discourage centralization. UNO can be merge-mined with Bitcoin.

ZCoin is a privacy focused cryptocurrency built on Ethereum. The ZCoin protocol enables anonymous transactions with cryptography that utilizes Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP). ZCoin increases privacy on their network by using a coin-mixer contract that wraps transactions in a serial number and destroying wrapped coins once they have been redeemed.
Zcoin was the first cryptocurrency to use a Merkle Tree Proof (MTP) as its proof of work algorithm. Merkle Tree Proofs are an innovative solution to achieving network consensus, and can increase transaction time while reducing the centralizing tendency of ASIC mining.
