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.

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.

Hedera Hashgraph is a blockchain network that was designed to allow developers to create DApps that require higher throughput and faster settlement. Hedera uses its own consensus protocol that assigns every transaction a consensus time that is calculated as the median of the times at which each node in the network first received it. The network is powered by the HBAR coin.
