'WAX is a purpose-built blockchain and protocol token designed to make e-commerce transactions faster, easier, and safer for all participants. The WAX Blockchain uses Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) as its consensus mechanism and is fully backward compatible with EOS. The custom features and incentive mechanisms developed by WAX are designed to optimize the blockchain's usability in e-commerce, and encourage voting on guilds and proposals. WAX has created a suite of blockchain-based tools upon which dApps, marketplaces, and native non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are built. These tools include services to support e-commerce operations such as the WAX Cloud Wallet, SSO and OAUTH, a native RNG service, and a developer portal. The resulting technology reportedly represents a blockchain architecture with 500 millisecond block times, is fee-less for customers, and leverages voting rewards to incentivize participation in the selection of block producers and proposals' '
Envion has created the technology for the first truly mobile mining unit (MMU) that uses low-priced local energy to mine a broad spectrum of cryptocurrencies. By harvesting locally available clean energy right at the source, Envion can operate at a lower cost than competitors and at the same time reduce the CO2 footprint of the blockchain industry. Envion aims at decentralizing the highly-concentrated mining market and at bringing back control of the market to the users. Hence, profits generated by MMUs are 100% beneficial to token holders. Distribution of profit dividends will occur on a weekly basis: 75% of profits will be emitted, while 25% will be used to reinvest directly in MMUs, in order to guarantee exponentially growing profits to the envion community.
