Comparison to Other Blockchain Projects
2.9.3. NXT; https://nxtplatform.org/. NXT (2014) is the rst PoSbased blockchain and currency. It is still single-chain, and has no smart
contract support.
2.9.4. Tezos; https://www.tezos.com/. Tezos (2018 or later) is a proposed PoS-based single-blockchain project. We mention it here because of
its unique feature: its block interpretation function ev_block (cf. 2.2.6) is
not xed, but is determined by an OCaml module, which can be upgraded
by committing a new version into the blockchain (and collecting some votes
for the proposed change). In this way, one will be able to create custom
single-chain projects by rst deploying a ?vanilla? Tezos blockchain, and then
gradually changing the block interpretation function in the desired direction,
without any need for hard forks.
This idea, while intriguing, has the obvious drawback that it forbids any
optimized implementations in other languages like C++, so a Tezos-based
blockchain is destined to have lower performance. We think that a similar
result might have been obtained by publishing a formal specication of the
proposed block interpretation function ev_trans, without xing a particular
implementation.
2.9.5. Casper.30 Casper is an upcoming PoS algorithm for Ethereum; its
gradual deployment in 2017 (or 2018), if successful, will change Ethereum into
a single-chain PoS or mixed PoW+PoS system with smart contract support,
transforming Ethereum into a third-generation project.
2.9.6. BitShares [8]; https://bitshares.org. BitShares (2014) is a platform for distributed blockchain-based exchanges. It is a heterogeneous multiblockchain DPoS system without smart contracts; it achieves its high performance by allowing only a small set of predened specialized transaction
types, which can be eciently implemented in C++, assuming the blockchain
state ts into memory. It is also the rst blockchain project to use Delegated
Proof-of-Stake (DPoS), demonstrating its viability at least for some specialized purposes.
2.9.7. EOS [5]; https://eos.io. EOS (2018 or later) is a proposed heterogeneous multi-blockchain DPoS system with smart contract support and
with some minimal support for messaging (still loosely-coupled in the sense
described in 2.8.14). It is an attempt by the same team that has previously

2.9. Comparison to Other Blockchain Projects
successfully created the BitShares and SteemIt projects, demonstrating the
strong points of the DPoS consensus algorithm. Scalability will be achieved
by creating specialized workchains for projects that need it (e.g., a distributed
exchange might use a workchain supporting a special set of optimized transactions, similarly to what BitShares did) and by creating multiple workchains
with the same rules (confederations in the sense described in 2.8.10). The
drawbacks and limitations of this approach to scalability have been discussed
in loc. cit. Cf. also 2.8.5, 2.8.12, and 2.8.14 for a more detailed discussion
of DPoS, sharding, interaction between workchains and their implications for
the scalability of a blockchain system.
At the same time, even if one will not be able to ?create a Facebook
inside a blockchain? (cf. 2.9.13), EOS or otherwise, we think that EOS might
become a convenient platform for some highly-specialized weakly interacting
distributed applications, similar to BitShares (decentralized exchange) and
SteemIt (decentralized blog platform).
2.9.8. PolkaDot [17]; https://polkadot.io/. PolkaDot (2019 or later)
is one of the best thought-out and most detailed proposed multichain Proofof-Stake projects; its development is led by one of the Ethereum co-founders.
This project is one of the closest projects to the TON Blockchain on our map.
(In fact, we are indebted for our terminology for ?shermen? and ?nominators?
to the PolkaDot project.)
PolkaDot is a heterogeneous loosely-coupled multichain Proof-of-Stake
project, with Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) consensus for generation of
new blocks and a masterchain (which might be external?e.g., the Ethereum
blockchain). It also uses hypercube routing, somewhat like (the slow version
of) TON's as described in 2.4.19.
Its unique feature is its ability to create not only public, but also private
blockchains. These private blockchains would also be able to interact with
other public blockchains, PolkaDot or otherwise.
As such, PolkaDot might become a platform for large-scale private blockchains, which might be used, for example, by bank consortiums to quickly
transfer funds to each other, or for any other uses a large corporation might
have for private blockchain technology.
However, PolkaDot has no sharding support and is not tightly-coupled.
This somewhat hampers its scalability, which is similar to that of EOS. (Perhaps a bit better, because PolkaDot uses BFT PoS instead of DPoS.)
2.9.9. Universa; https://universa.io. The only reason we mention this
