BZ is the ecological token issued by Bit-Z Exchange, abbreviated as BZ. It does not publicly raise funds from investors.The initial stage of BZ is based on the Ethereum ERC20 agreement. In the future, the BZ main net will establish more ecological models to boost the development of the platform. Based on the global eco-development plan of the Bit-Z Group, BZ will have good asset value preservation, expected value-added space, and stable market liquidity. The value space of BZ can be imagined. BZ is bringing a series of ecological core welfare benefits to the Bit-Z Group. 50% of the total, used for global partners to share a new model of dividends. Bit-Z defines one million users as its partners, and is committed to building the world's largest trading platform, and always works with users to promote the new development of global blockchain ecological construction. There is no private equity quota to protect the ecological development of the Bit-Z Group. Bit-Z puts perspective on industry health and platform self-discipline. BZ minimizes the participation threshold for global partners and creates a new economy for welfare sharing. BZ employs third-party data disclosure agencies to share data to global partners in real-time. BZ is committed to creating a fully transparent circulation mechanism.
Achain is a public blockchain platform that enables developers of all levels to issue tokens and create smart contracts, decentralized applications, and blockchain systems. Achain is committed to building a global blockchain network for information exchange and value transactions. Unlike Bitcoin or Ethereum, Achain utilizes a modified version of DPoS — RDPoS (Result-delegated Proof of Stake) to establish node consensus. Shortly, DPoS suggests that all coin holders vote for the validator nodes that will produce the next blocks. On the project website, only info about CEO Tony Cui is listed. Cui has a few significant accomplishments, including winning the Future Star award from the Zhongguancun Alliance and being listed in the 30 under 30 on CYZONE, a famous venture capital magazine. On LinkedIn, 51 people are listed as employees at Achain. Most of the team is based in Beijing. Achain also has a few key industry partners. It has even co-organized a “Blockchain Technology Open Course” with Tsinghua University, which is widely recognized as one of the world’s top universities. The roadmap for Achain development is fairly detailed. However, most goals listed are development-oriented rather than marketing or design. Still, it’s important to note that focusing on making the protocol interoperable and building a technology that is more accessible to mainstream adoption could also be considered a marketing-oriented part of this project. There are three major phases with projected completion dates listed. These include Singularity (completed Q1), Galaxy (ongoing), and Cosmos (complete at the end of Q4). One thing to note is that dates for these phases are not consistent between the homepage and the whitepaper. This could be simply due to a scenario in which phase names remain the same while new goals and timeline dates within those phases continue to change. In January 2019, the project will update the website to reflect roadmap goals for the new year. Looking at the current landscape of blockchain projects, Achain certainly offers the possibility of much-needed technical innovations. The ability to easily create an Achain fork, as well as, the protocol’s unique RDPoS consensus algorithm make this a promising project. It will be interesting to see how Achain builds upon its accomplishments, and how the project team continues to develop a long-term strategy for improving the protocol’s technical capabilities and increasing participation in its ecosystem.
