DDK is a community platform that aims to create economic opportunities through the development of blockchain solutions. Since 2015, the DDK community claims to have contributed to a number of blockchain platforms.The DDK platform uses the Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) mechanism within its core. According to DDK, one of the advantages of a DPoS blockchain is that it depends on community members to participate in the maintenance and security of the platform so that each member’s participation provides benefit for all.
The key to Space Chain is to deploy all blockchain nodes on satellites so as to bring blockchain technology into space, adding a new dimension to blockchain’s core concept of distributed ledger by making use of space technology and advantages of space resources. As a space blockchain platform featuring data collecting, computing, application and storage, Space Chain uses satellites as its blockchain nodes for realizing direct on-satellite data processing and secure in-space data storage through cryptographic technologies such as quantum communications. Different from ground-network-based blockchain technology, Space chain provides a broader coverage and is based on a network of LEO satellites for achieving broad-based connectivity so that anyone and anything could become the user of blockchain technology anywhere and anytime.
