What are the top 8 platforms for Blockchain Technology?
The best platforms for Blockchain Technology are described below:
Ethereum
Ethereum is an open-source blockchain-based distributed platform and operating which uses smart contract functionality.Ethereum helps developers to build and deploy a decentralized application.A smart contract is used to describe any code that can facilitate the exchange of money, content, property, shares, or anything of value.Decentralized applications (or Dapps)includes serverless provisions that might be run mutually on the customer side and inside a blockchain based dispersed network, for example, such that Ethereum. The various benefits of ethereum are below:Scalability
Ethereum helps to develop scalable DApps and DAO, flexibility which helps to increase transaction performance, securityProgrammability
Easy to use as solidity is widely used for there platform, well documented and has StackOverflow group of developers.Security
Secured and highly trusted as many of the ICOs are based on Ethereum platform.- Potential network issues (DDoS)
- Exploitable Smart Contract code (reordering, insertion of transactions)
Interoperability
It supports multiple token and cryptocurrencies, and many of them are based on Ethereum platform only.TX costs
7/10; faster than BTC & still relatively cheap per transaction- 15-20s vs 3-5s (Lumens); 10-30m (Bitcoin)
- 0.25$ vs < 0.01$ (Lumens); 6$ (Bitcoin)
- Approaching updates though that will greatly improve this (e.g., Raiden network)
What is XLM or Stellar?
Stellar is a blockchain based platform that connects banks, payments systems, and people. XLM helps to move money quickly, reliably, and at low cost.Stellar also features a built-in distributed exchange which allows people to not only buy and sell currencies but also to convert from one currency to another during cross-currency transactions. The benefits of Stellar are described below:Scalability
A single transaction consists of many operations like payment, offers and fees. Processing rate – 1000 operations per secondProgrammability
A technical team will setup database table, write code to listen to the stellar ledger, conduct transaction and can test integration.Ease of use
Free to use, need 120-200 hours for integration depending on size and experience of the development team.Security
Base account’s details can be stored on an offline computer. Can freeze assets if the account is AUTHORIZATION REVOCABLE.Interoperability
Allow easy and cheap transfers between any pair of currencies.TX costs
0.00001 XLM (Very low) 9/10; extremely fast & cheap comparative to other leaders in speed & cost like Ethereum- 3-5s vs 15-20s (Ethereum); 10-30m (Bitcoin)
- < 0.01$ vs 0.25$ (Ethereum); 6$ (Bitcoin)
What is Ripple?
