What problem does this service solve?
| Penta does not appear to solve any problems better than existing blockchain platforms. | HYCON's DAG/SPECTRE consensus is designed to improve blockchain performance by enabling more than one block to be added to the main chain. | IPFS is a decentralized alternative to HTTP that can be used to make recording blockchain transactions more efficient. |

Company Description
Penta is developing a blockchain platform that DApps can be built on. It will have a Dynamic Stake Consensus (DSC) algorithm to confirm transactions. The Penta network is currently powered by the Ethereum-based PNT token. | HYCON is a blockchain platform powered by the Hyperconnected Coin. The decentralized platform has a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) architecture, and is focused on improving scalability and throughput. HYCON's SPECTRE consensus algorithm is designed to enable horizontal scalability, where several blocks can be added at the same time. \ | The Interplanetary File System (IPFS) is a decentralized network protocol for sharing hypermedia in a distributed file system. IPFS can be used to link blockchain transactions This effectively timestamps and secures the content, without having to put the data on the chain itself. Filecoin, an IPFS-based decentralized storage cloud, is closely related with the IPFS protocol, and provides the incentive system. |
