Vertcoin is a cryptocurrency with a strong emphasis on keeping the ecosystem as decentralized as possible. Vertcoin was designed with the goal of being easily mined by all users and to resist the centralizing tendency of specialized mining operations. Vertcoin has a Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism that is ASIC resistant, and uses the Lyra2RE mining algorithm.

Sharechain is developing a Proof-of-Work cryptocurrency platform. Their network is currently fueled by the Ethereum-based SSS token. Their marketing materials are unclear and do not offer any information about its advantages.

TransferCoin is a digital currency with a hybrid PoW and PoS consensus mechanism. TransferCoin uses the X11 encryption algorithm and has a relatively fast block time.
