Plasma pairs smart contracts on the main Blockchain by using fraud Proofs. This technique gives full nodes the ability to De-Validate a faulty chain. This protects the integrity of the main chain. Much like the Raiden network, plasma is a second layer built on top of Ethereum’s core. Vitalik believe...

New Blockchain projects such as Eos or Cardano are busy developing answers and solutions to Ethereum’s current issues. All Blockchain systems and protocols are hard at work to build a foundation that enables real world use and adoption. Scalability, Interoperability, Andoverall usability are the thr...

Scalability is a Blockchain’s ability to accommodate as many users as possible on the chain while still retaining low transaction fees and fast consensus. Ethereum and Bitcoin’s Scalability issues stem from their Now-Inefficient consensus protocols. This inefficiency Percolates down to a few major d...

Interoperability is a protocol’s capacity to interact and cooperate with different Blockchains. It will be the main factor that will help bring Blockchain Tech into the real world. The essence of Interoperability is to eliminate the need for Centralised intermediaries, improve capacities of performa...

Many projects are Transitioning from simple Smart-Contract Interoperability, to seamless sharing of information across Blockchains. The Blockchain projects with Interoperability at their core will survive the test of time and adaptability, says Robert McDonald.

New platforms make developer’s lives easier with functional programming languages, smart contract audits, and Easy-To-Deploy, Customisable Blockchains. The end goal in my opinion is for the end user to not even know they’re using a Blockchain. Blockchain that is easy for developers and user friendly...

There are many more projects that all approach the challenges that Blockchains are facing from different angles. Matrixchain uses ai in some unique ways that ultimately, simplify the user experience. Matrixchain uses a hybrid POW and delegated Pos protocol. Matrixchain integrates ai in some unique w...

Bitcoin was the first. It was exciting. Revolutionary. It was Steve Jobs in his basement, Neil Armstrong walking on the moon, the caveman harnessing fire. It was the first digitally scarce asset. It solved issues that had plagued developers for years. It is the foundation of this entirel...

Ethereum ’ s main deficiency is its protocol. Ether is mined using proof of work (POW) — the same protocol used by Bitcoin. With Pos, computers compete to solve mathematical formulas and win the right to confirm transactions into the Blockchain. The two major drawbacks to the POW protocol is the dan...

The Raiden network is an open source project that aims to serve as an Off-Chain network that facilitates transfers of Ethereum ERC 20 tokens. It Utilises state channel technology, enabling Off-Chain transfers of On-Chain tokens. The transfer itself is immune to double spending, making it as safe as ...

Supply chain integration allows for rapid and improved Commerce. But there are serious hurdles for Blockchains (let alone a single one) to overcome. Do you think that China and Switzerland will have the same standards for a Blockchain that they both support and approve? do you think that China an...
