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.
The company claims that their platform will increase security and efficiency compared to other platforms. IOST uses a sharding technique that splits the network into smaller ones and randomly assigns tasks for the nodes on the network.

Universa is developing a customizable blockchain platform that will enable real-time transactions, offline smart contracts, and escrow payments. Their network is currently powered by the Ethereum-based UNTP token.
