APEX is building a blockchain infrastructure for consumer applications that will focus on B2C transactions on the internet. Their goal is to provide an enterprise blockchain solution for creating custom DApps that will be used by consumers. The NEO-based network was created by APEX Technologies (formerly Chinapex), an established data technology and AI company. Their network is powered by the NEO-based CPX token.

GINcoin is designed to be a masternode-facilitating blockchain and coin. It lowers the technical requirements to set up a masternode on any blockchain. GIN can also be used as a DApp development platform. GINcoin uses a Delayed Proof of Work consensus algorithm to verify transactions.
