Electroneum is creating a payment system for developing countries. Their platform is designed for mass adoption and uses a mining protocol that encourages daily use. Electroneum's mobile app will provide a digital payment solution that can be more easily used for transactions in these countries. The platform has a unique mobile mining protocol that gives a small amount of their native token (ETN) to users every day. This is meant to drive user adoption and provide greater liquidity to the network.

Obyte, previously known as Byteball, is a conditional payment network that is built on scalable technology, and is enabled by smart contracts. It also allows users to create their own ICO and issue their own digital assets. Conditional smart payments can be used for a variety of decentralized applications, including: insurance, betting, and prediction markets. Obyte's platform is smart contract enabled and allows users to control their identity better than some other payment systems. Obyte also allows users to make transactions through text messages or with a chat bot. Obyte's transaction data is stored and ordered using directed acyclic graph (DAG) rather than blockchain. This allows all users to secure each other's data by referencing earlier data units created by other users, and also removes scalability limits common for blockchains.
