FairCoin

FairCoin is based on an innovative blockchain technology, which has been changed in July 2017 from a 'Proof-of-Stake' protocol to a 'Proof-of-Cooperation' (PoC) mechanism. Our currency not only requires less energy and enables faster transactions, but also introduces a certain level of trust and democratic values even on the technical level. Here you find the White Paper and more information about PoC and our FairChains project.

With the support of FairCoop, FairCoin implements fair value exchange on a global level. Our innovative Proof-of-Cooperation (PoC) blockchain mechanism is the unique consensus algorithm developed for FairCoin. It requires much less energy than other blockchains but also enables faster transactions. We are proud that FairCoin now is the the most ecological and resilient cryptocurrency.

DigiByte is a a blockchain platform that places an emphasis on security and block speed. DigiByte has one of the fastest block speeds of any public blockchain and uses an innovative consensus protocol with 5 mining algorithms. This prevents mining centralization and also minimizes the chances of security breaches. DigiByte transactions are limited in size and scope to increase speed, efficiency, and throughput.
DigiByte hopes that these innovations will provide the ideal blockchain infrastructure for a range of applications within the IoT and AI fields, that require a high degree of security and fast block speeds.

Peercoin is the first Proof-of-Stake (PoS) cryptocurrency. It was created in 2012 and is one of the oldest and most reliable cryptocurrency networks in the crypto sector. The protocol was developed by Sunny King and Scott Nadel, both of whom are anonymous. Sunny King also created Primecoin and VEE.
Peercoin’s PoS consensus mechanism is now widely used in the blockchain space, and allows every network participant to be both a miner or an owner. The project is focused on creating a cryptocurrency platform that will be stable, secure, energy efficient, and distributed fairly.
