Harmony is developing an open consensus blockchain platform. Harmony's sharding-based consensus mechanism is designed to scale as the number of nodes increases in the network. Harmony aims to tackle issues related to scalability by optimizing across multiple layers in a way that will enable parallel transaction processing with reduced latency. Harmony is currently powered by the ONE token, which is built on the Binance blockchain.

The Elrond blockchain platform is designed to be a public development infrastructure that will be more secure, efficient, and scalable than other blockchain platforms. The Elrond blockchain is aimed at DApp developers and enterprises. Elrond will have a Prof of Stake consensus mechanism, and will include an Adaptive State Sharding feature that will allow multiple validators to process transactions in parallel.

Ternio is developing a scalable blockchain framework called Lexicon. It was originally a fork of Hyperledger Fabric, and is designed to handle the high transactions rates that enterprise business clients need. Ternio's framework uses its Lexicon Blockchain as a data protocol, and the Stellar Blockchain as a payment protocol. Ternio will have a Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT) consensus mechanism. Ternio's marketing materials mention the benefits that their high performance, Lexicon blockchain can have in programmatic digital advertising, as well as a variety of other industries. Ternio also created the BlockCard; a crypto debit card that enables users to spend their cryptocurrency. Their network is currently powered by the Stellar-based TERN token.
