The Cardano blockchain is a 3rd generation blockchain platform that was designed with a collaborative peer-to-peer review system, It aims to improve upon prior blockchain systems to enable larger and more sustainable uses of the technology.
Cardano was built with a governance model that is based on collaboration. This allows the platform to evolve quickly and adapt to the changing needs of its users. Unlike many other blockchain projects, it also installed a treasury system to fund the ongoing development needs that may arise as it moves forward.
The Cardano blockchain uses a unique proof of stake algorithm called Ouroboros and has a protocol that consists of two layers, a settlement layer and a control layer. The settlement layer is designed to perform accounting functions, while the control layer is tasked with running smart contracts. The platform tries to balance the privacy concerns of users with the requirements of regulators in an effective way.
Cardano uses the Haskell programming language and is fueled by the ADA coin

EdenChain is developing an enterprise tokenization platform that will be based on their permissioned blockchain technology. Their goal is to enable enterprises to create customized digital assets based on their unique needs, and still maintain a high degree of control and privacy. EdenChain will use Merkle Tree and Namespace technology to solve performance issues by executing transactions in parallel; thus enabling more transactions per second, with lower transaction fees. EdenChain utilizes both a hardware and software solution to arrive at a consensus, and has a triple layer architecture that is significantly different from other tokenization platforms. Their hybrid consensus mechanism that will combine a protocol called Median Voter Thereom (MVT) with Proof-of-Elapsed-Time (PoET). PoET was designed and marketed by Intel, and is similar to PoW but requires less electricity. The company issued an Ethereum-based token called EDN.
