Fantom is developing a smart contract platform based on a directed acyclic graph (DAG). They hope to address the scalability issues of current decentralized platforms. Instead of a blockchain, Fantom's Lachesis Protocol uses a directed acyclic graph to confirm transactions asynchronously. This transaction history is immutable and cannot be modified. The platform's Opera Chain will consist of three layers: an application Layer, Opera Ware Layer, and Opera Core Layer. Fanotm issued an Ethereum-based token in 2018.

Bytom is a Chinese company that is developing a blockchain platform that is specifically designed to register securities and physical assets to the Bytom blockchain. Bytom aims to create a secondary markets for these blockchain registered assets and will allow them to be tokenized.
Bytom is compatible with other platforms and enables high transaction speeds and anonymity.
One of Bytom's key features is its improved PoW consensus algorithm that is compatible with AI-enhanced ASIC chips. This allows for more efficient mining that uses less energy.
