Privacy-enhancing public blockchain with instant finality. Aleph Zero is built for enterprise, Web 3.0, and DeFi use-cases. Aleph Zero is a proof-of-stake public blockchain. We combined an original, aBFT consensus protocol with a customized substrate stack. Currently, we’re working on enhancing the platform with a privacy framework based on Zero-knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) and secure Multi-Party Computation (sMPC) to empower developers with a unique approach to private smart contracts. During a laboratory test, Aleph Zero’s peer-reviewed consensus protocol (AlephBFT) achieved 89,600 tx/s with a 416 ms confirmation time in a decentralized test setting of 112 AWS nodes spread across five continents. Aleph Zero’s real-world performance, especially under heavy l network load, is yet to be determined. The Aleph Zero Consensus Protocol has been officially peer-reviewed and accepted for publication in the conference proceedings of advances in financial technology 2019.

Crypto is fragmented today, but it doesn’t need to be. For the first time, build projects, create value, and exchange assets on the same hyper-performant chain. The foundation of the Hyperliquid L1 is HyperBFT consensus, which lets a disparate set of nodes agree on the state of the world. The state comprises all applications, both those built as native components and the HyperEVM. The Hyper Foundation, established to support the development of the Hyperliquid blockchain and its ecosystem, has announced the upcoming genesis distribution of its native token, HYPE. This initiative marks a significant step toward implementing proof-of-stake consensus and launching the HyperEVM on the layer-1 blockchain's mainnet. Hyperliquid's flagship application is a decentralized trading platform that provides deep on-chain liquidity for a wide range of assets. With the introduction of HyperEVM, applications built on Hyperliquid will have access to this extensive liquidity.
