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.

Nano, formerly known as Railblocks, is a cryptocurrency that is focused on enabling fast transactions with no fees. Nano's innovative blockchain architecture utilizes a block lattice structure that does not need miners to confirm transactions.
Nano uses a Delegated Proof-of-Stake consensus.
