Rise is building a blockchain development platform with dPoS consensus. Their protocol uses a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (dPoS) consensus mechanism and will be powered by the RISE coin. They hope to significantly improve transaction times and reduce fees, while providing developers with a tool set to create DApps in several programming languages.

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.

TomoChain is a DApp development platform compatible with Ethereum smart contracts. Their goal is to enable faster and cheaper transactions. Their network will have a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, with a system of 150 Masternodes. TomoChain will be compatible with Ethereum-based smart contracts, and will allow users to issue their own tokens. The company has offices in Singapore, Japan, and Vietnam.
