The Solana blockchain uses an innovative Proof of History mechanism to confirm transactions that are recorded on the network. Solana is designed to separate the consensus process from the flow of transactions. This is done with a recursive, verifiable delay function that hashes incoming transactions, and recording information as a function of time. Every node on the Solana blockchain is assigned a cryptographic clock that enables the network to determine the time and ordering of transactions, without having to wait for consensus from other nodes. By separating the process of transaction verification from their recording, a higher throughput is achieved without sacrificing network security.

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.

V Systems is a blockchain platform that was developed by Sunny King, the creator of Peercoin and Primecoin. Peercoin was one of the first Proof of Stake Coins, and V Systems is designed to improve upon the consensus mechanism with a better staking system.
