Ternio is developing a scalable blockchain framework called Lexicon. It was originally a fork of Hyperledger Fabric, and is designed to handle the high transactions rates that enterprise business clients need. Ternio's framework uses its Lexicon Blockchain as a data protocol, and the Stellar Blockchain as a payment protocol. Ternio will have a Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT) consensus mechanism. Ternio's marketing materials mention the benefits that their high performance, Lexicon blockchain can have in programmatic digital advertising, as well as a variety of other industries. Ternio also created the BlockCard; a crypto debit card that enables users to spend their cryptocurrency. Their network is currently powered by the Stellar-based TERN token.

NEAR Protocol is a decentralized application platform designed to make DApps operable on the web. The NEAR network uses a Proof of Stake consensus mechanism called Nightshade. The NEAR utility token is used for processing transactions and storing data, as well as for facilitating voting for governance issues.

GoChain is building a blockchain focused on speed and scalability. GoChain's protocol uses a Proof-of-Reputation (PoR) consensus mechanism and will be powered by the GO coin. They hope to significantly improve transaction times and reduce fee with an architecture that will rely on nodes managed by large enterprises. Their marketing materials places a strong emphasis on energy efficiency and reducing the monopolizing influence of large mining operations that have reduced the decentralization of other networks.
