Company Description
The Graph Token is the native currency of the The Graph ecosystem. Their goal is to create an indexing protocol for querying decentralized networks, and allow anyone to publish open APIs, called subgraphs, which will make this data more accessible. These subgraphs can be composed into a global graph, and can then be transformed, organized, and shared across applications for anyone to query with just a few keystrokes. | 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. | Blockstream is a private, for profit, blockchain technology company, that has played a key role in helping to develop, and fund, many of the key features of the Bitcoin Core platform. Blockstream is focused on developing bitcoin applications and has raised significant funding from several large investment funds. The company also employs several developers that are very influential within the Bitcoin Core development project. This, as well as being of Bitcoin's largest donors, has led to some criticism about conflicts of interest. |
