MOL is developing a blockchain platform for micro-payments. MOL's architecture will be based on the block lattice design used in Nano, and will have a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (dPoS) consensus mechanism that incorporates elements from Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAG). The MOL network is currently powered by the Ethereum-based MOL token.

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.
