Company Description
ChainLink is developing the LINK Network, which will enable connected smart contracts. LINK will provide smart contracts with a variety of external data and access to APIs. ChainLink's goal is to solve the connectivity problem that plagues smart contract based systems, and discourages mass adoption. Many decentralized applications are unable to connect with important external data sources due to limitations involving their consensus protocols. The LINK network wants to connect their smart contracts with external systems and APIs by using secure middleware. | CanonChain is developing an underlying blockchain protocol based on Fog networking and a Proof-of-Participation (PoP) consensus mechanism. Their network is designed to provide incentives for contributing computing resources on fragmented networks, and is powered by the Ethereum-based CZR token, known as Xuanchi. | IOST (Internet of Services Token) is a blockchain platform that is focused on improving transaction speed and scalability. IOST has a unique Proof of Believability consensus mechanism that is based on past contributions and behavior. |
