What problem does this service solve?

Ethereum is a general purpose blockchain with a smart contract functionality that can be implemented to automatically execute certain functions. The Ethereum blockchain and its native currency Ether, are a central components of the entire blockchain ecosystem. A large number of other tokens are built upon its platform, and Ether currently represents around 15% of the total market capitalization of all digital currencies.Digix wants to create a digital token will less price volatility. By tokenizing gold on the Ethereum blockchain, they hope to create a digital asset with stable value.PIRL's community focused blockchain aims to be an intuitive and easy to use platform that will make decentralized technologies more accessible.

Company Description

Ethereum is a blockchain-based computing platform and operating system whose core innovation is enabling smart contracts. Ethereum's smart contract functionality, and versatile scripting language, have made it the most popular network for creating decentralized applications. What makes Ethereum different from Bitcoin is that its primary purpose is to serve as a general purpose blockchain for creating DApps, and not as a payment network. Ethereum was created by Vitalik Buterin. It was launched in July 2015 and has become one of the most important blockchain platforms in the industry. Ether is the native currency of the Ethereum blockchain and can can be used as a transfer of value, as well as a form of compensation for mining. The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) executes scripts using a network of public nodes. "Gas" is used as an internal transaction pricing mechanism that decides how resources are used on the network.

Digix is digital gold on the blockchain. By combining the historical stability of a valuable physical asset with the advantages of a distributed ledger, Digix allows users to benefit from the advantages of both commodities and digital tokens.
Digix has an innovative Proof of Asset (PoA) protocol that allows it it tokenize a physical asset. The PoA protocol tracks an asset through its chain of custody, and enables anyone to verify its existence without an intermediary. Since every DGX = 1 Gram of gold, their platform can be used as a secure and transparent digital marketplace for gold.
Digix is also behind DigixDAO, a platform that allows users to contribute to building a blockchain-based digital gold payment system. They hope to create a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) that will participate in creating this platform. Instead of issuing shares, the organization will be run by DigixDAO token holders.

PIRL is a community based blockchain project focused on making cryptocurrencies more accessible. It was the first blockchain to introduce an Ethash-based masternode. Their goal is to develop a comprehensive DApps hosting infrastructure that will be easy to use. Their Poseidon platform is designed to be an on ramp for users without any technical knowledge. PIRL's multi-tiered masternode network has an ASIC-resistant Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism, and is powered by the PIRL coin. The company plans on developing features, such as: decentralized file storage, messaging, and escrow services for payments.
