DERO is a new, experimental blockchain technology written in Golang with a focus on enhanced Privacy and Smart Contracts while maintaining the transparency and security of the blockchain. The goal is to create a unique state of the art blockchain technology with enhanced Reliability, Privacy, Security, Usability, and Portability by bringing together some of the best proven technologies like CryptoNote Protocol and Smart Contracts, thereby allowing for the creation of Private Smart Contracts. The Dero Project has written a unique new blockchain technology that is based on the CryptoNote protocol. Dero's goal is to create a unique state of the art blockchain technology with enhanced reliability, privacy, security, usability, and portability by bringing together some of the best proven technologies like the CryptoNote protocol and smart contracts, thereby allowing for the creation of truly private smart contracts. The Dero development team has implemented complete SSL across the Dero network which is a first on any blockchain. This encrypts the entirety of our network traffic, which greatly reduces our attack surface, while simultaneously preventing ISPs or other users from analyzing Dero’s network traffic.
ThunderCore is committed to building a public blockchain platform that is fast, scalable, and secure. Made possible by years of rigorous academic research, ThunderCore is an EVM-compatible public blockchain that offers higher throughput, faster confirmation times, and lower costs to make it quick and easy for DApps to deploy and scale. Core development team of ThunderCore is made up of pioneers in smart contracts and distributed algorithms from top notch academic circles in the US. ThunderCore utilized solid pathbreaking academic research in the field of blockchain consensus protocols to break through the scalability “trilemma”.ThunderCore achieves a TPS of thousands while ensuring decentralized trust. The ThunderCore mainnet launched on Feb 28, 2019. The ThunderCore ecosystem construction has started, and will soon launch PoS staking, in order to support users participation in consensus.
