æternity is a public, open-source blockchain protocol that enables a platform for next-generation decentralized applications with high scalability. Its core components are written in the functional programming language Erlang and its smart contract language - Sophia - is also functional. æternity has a stellar team of developers including Robert Virding - co-creator of Erlang, John Hughes - co-designer of Haskell, and Ulf Norell - co-designer of the Agda programming language for formal verification. Unlike other blockchain platforms, the æternity protocol itself incorporates a number of essential technological features. State channels for off-chain scaling, oracles for real-world information, and a naming system for increased user-friendliness are all implemented on Layer 1. æternity also features SDKs in Javascript, GO, Phyton, Java, as well as a middleware and a development suite that streamline smart contract development. æternity incorporates the Bitcoin-NG consensus algorithm developed by academics from Cornell University and uses the Cuckoo Cycle mining algorithm for Sybil attack protection. AE tokens, the native cryptocurrency of the æternity platform, is used for both - an economic unit of account and as ballots in the community-driven on-chain governance votes.
TEMCO is the world's first Bitcoin Smart Contract (RSK) based supply chain data platform. TEMCO connects isolated supply chain data and offers business and consumer services. On the business side, TEMCO provides a Business Intelligence Tool (BI-Tool) to help companies efficiently analyze and gain insights from data on the blockchain. On the consumer side, TEMCO is developing an application where consumers can view transparent supply chain and product data starting from the manufacturer to the final consumer. In addition, TEMCO offers a marketplace where vendors and consumers can directly transact using both fiat and TEMCO tokens.
