The Matic Network is a sidechain based scaling solution for public blockchains. Matic aims to allow developers to better scale their Ethereum DApps by using a version of Plasma, along with side chains that use a PoS consensus mechanism. Matic plans on supporting other blockchains as well in order to facilitate interoperability.

The OneRoot Network hopes to create a blockchain development platform that will provide a development infrastructure for DApps, and a decentralized exchange. The OneRoot consensus mechanism is based on the concept of co-building. The company's whitepaper and marketing materials are unclear regarding its technical details and project vision.

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.
