Viacoin is an open source cryptocurrency based on the Bitcoin protocol. Viacoin has a 24 second block time and relatively fast transaction times. It can handle 175 transactions per second without scaling through Segwit or the Lightning Network. The fast transaction times make Viacoin a good option for sending micropayments. The platform also enables users to perform cross-chain atomic swaps between different cryptocurrencies, without a centralized exchange. Viacoin has an Auxiliary Proof-of-Work (AuxPoW) consensus mechanism that allows miners to mine multiple coins, that use the Scrypt algorithms, at the same time. Viacoin's smart contract platform, Rootstock, is compatible with Ethereum smart contracts.

PIRL is a community based blockchain project focused on making cryptocurrencies more accessible. It was the first blockchain to introduce an Ethash-based masternode. Their goal is to develop a comprehensive DApps hosting infrastructure that will be easy to use. Their Poseidon platform is designed to be an on ramp for users without any technical knowledge. PIRL's multi-tiered masternode network has an ASIC-resistant Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism, and is powered by the PIRL coin. The company plans on developing features, such as: decentralized file storage, messaging, and escrow services for payments.

EOS is a blockchain development platform created by Block.one. Its goal is to become an all purpose operating system for blokchain applications. EOS allows developers to make underlying blockchains and create decentralized application more easily. It was designed from the ground up, to be more scalable and faster than other blockchain platforms. This allows for greater throughput, with more transactions per second, and much lower transaction fees. EOS tokens serve as the native currency. The network has a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (dPoS) consensus mechanism. Transactions are verified by 21 block producers that are chosen through a voting process that is designed to encourage community participation.
