APIS is developing a masternode mediation platform that will lower the barriers of entry for users wanting invest their coins on their own masternode of a network. A masternode is a type of node that has additional voting influence and block rewards, on a Proof-of-Stake network. Investors are able to place coins on a masternode and receive a stable interest from the block rewards; similar to interest that is given in a bank. APIS will allow users to invest in masternodes without having to deal with the technical requirements or stake a prohibitively large number of coins.
Their network is powered by the Ethereum-based APIS token.

Lisk is a blockchain-based platform that allows developers to build and publish their own applications. Lisk uses sidechain development kits, that are written in Javascript, to enable users to create their own blockchain applications according to their needs. Each decentralized App runs on its own sidechain that can be customized, and is connected to the Lisk blockchain, which has a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (dPoS) consensus mechanism. The Lisk network is powered by the LSK coin.

Truffle is one of the leading providers of blockchain development tools. The Truffle platform consists of three tools that are designed to assist developers in creating DApps: Truffle, Ganache and Drizzle. Truffle is a testing framework for DApps using the Etereum Virtual Machine. Ganache allows users to easily create a personalized version of the Ethereum blockchain to run tests and execute commands. Drizzle is a collection of front-end libraries that help developers create user interfaces for DApps.
