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.

Divi is a Proof of Stake cryptocurrency with a masternode system designed to encourage network participation. The project is focused on facilitating adoption of cryptocurrencies by creating a system of incentives for both everyday users and those that help run the networks. Divi's masternode system has five layers of participation and awards users for staking their coins. Divi has an innovative lottery block system that randomly pays out lottery prizes in the form of new coins to network users.

Qtum has been described as a hybrid between Ethereum and Bitcoin. Qtum is a smart contracts platform that places a strong focus on value transfers as well as decentralized apps. Qtum enables users to create smart contracts on the platform and conduct cryptocurrency transactions.
Qtum has a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus algorithm. Several decentralized apps are already using the platform.
