The C98 token is supported on Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain and Solana, and exists as an ERC-20, BEP-20 and SPL. Besides the in-house dedicated dev team, Coin98 also has external audits to ensure its smart contracts and products are secure. Some of enlisted audits are Certik for Coin98 Wallet, Armor for C98 smart contracts (ETH & BSC).

C98, the token on the Coin98 network, is a utility or governance token. The circulating supply is 185,000,000, which is the same as the total supply. The maximum supply of C98 is 1,000,000,000. The tokens are allocated as follows: 21% of tokens go to growing the ecosystem, 20% to developing the community, 20% to the team, 15% for strategic sale, 12% for the treasury, 5% for the seed sale and another 5% for the Binance Launchpad sale, with the last 2% for advisors. For more information about the C98 tokenomics and release schedule, see [here](https://coin98insights.com/what-is-coin98-c98).

The unique thing about Coin98 Wallet is the first multi-chain compatible wallet engine, which means users can interact with different wallets of different blockchains at the same time, with one single passphrase, without complicated switching requirements.

The platform was co-founded by Thanh Le and Vinh The Nguyen. Thanh Le was a serial entrepreneur and an early investor of ThorChain, Band Protocol, Alpha Finance, and more. Vinh The Ngyuyen is the co-founder of Kytek Software, a company which helps to review and build applications. Khiem Dang is the CTO, who is also a co-founder of Kytek Software.

When it comes to the top exchanges for trading in iExec RLC, these include: [Bittrex](https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/bittrex/) [Uniswap V2](https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/uniswap-v2/) [Binance](https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/binance/) [Upbit](https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/upbit/) [VCC Exchange](https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/vcc-exchange/) [HitBTC](https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/hitbtc/) Feel free to find more at our crypto[ exchanges page](https://coinmarketcap.com/rankings/exchanges/).

IExec helps [smart contracts](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/smart-contract) overcome limitations within the Ethereum blockchain including scalability, privacy and connectivity. For a high level of security, iExec has developed TEE, otherwise known as Trusted Execution Environment. This is a secure area in a machine’s CPU that can guarantee the code’s execution. In other words, it guarantees that the code cannot be tampered with due to the fact that its logic is implemented at a hardware level. This ensures that exiting a smart contract to access information is provided by the Web2 infrastructure is secure.

IExec RLC (RLC) is a cryptocurrency on the [Ethereum](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/) platform. More specifically, RLC is an[ ERC-20](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/erc20/) compliant digital asset. RLC can be easily and securely stored, transferred, traded and divided as well as used to make transactions.

The iExec network has been made up of computing resource providers. These are known as iExec Workers. If users want to be these workers, they can connect their machines and will be rewarded with RLC tokens for contributing their resources to the network. Application providers can monetize their algorithms, and data providers that own valuable datasets can make them available for usage through iExec. Then there is also the consensus protocol known as PoCo or proof-of-contribution that provides consensus over the off-chain computing. Thanks to this proof-of-contribution, external resources providers have the usage of their resources certified on the blockchain itself. IExec also provides distributed applications running on the blockchain known as [DApps](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/decentralized-applications-dapps) scalable secure and easy access to servers, data-sets and computing resources, and since all of this works on Ethereum, it allows for a Virtual Cloud Infrastructure that can provide high-performance computing services on demand. As such, iExec supports the emerging class of blockchain-based distributed applications and enables cost-effective, high-performance computing through a decentralized cloud infrastructure. Through making access to machines easier, a distributed cloud will allow a drastic increase in the environmental footprint of data centers.

When it comes to the Founders of iExec RLC, Gilles Fedak is the CEO and co-founder. Before he began work on iExec, he worked in INRIA as a research scientist at a postdoc in UC San Diego and at ATER at University Paris-Sud. He has a Ph.D. in philosophy and computer science. Haiwu He is the co-founder and head of APAC at iExec. Before that, he was a professor at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, an innovation transfer research engineer at ENS Lyon, the co-founder of iRentCPU, a research engineer expert at INRA and an assistant professor at Hohai University. He has a Ph.D. in computing sciences. This means that iExec is built upon the work of team members who have done INRIA and CNRS research in the field of desktop grid computing.

iExec is the leading provider of [blockchain](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/blockchain)-based decentralized computing. Blockchain is utilized to organize a market network where people can monetize their computing power as well as applications and even datasets. It does this by providing on-demand access to cloud computing resources. IExec can support applications in fields such as big data, healthcare, AI, rendering and fintech. IExec was founded on Oct. 16, 2016, with the goal to reinvent cloud computing through the creation of a new cloud computing paradigm. As such, iExec relies on the XtremWeb-HEP, an open-source desktop grid software that implements features such as multi-applications, fault-tolerance, multi-users, deployment of virtual images, private infrastructure, data management, security and much more.

Balancer allows users to add to liquidity pools to earn $BAL, which is automatically awarded to the users weekly. Top exchanges that support $BAL include Binance, ZenGo, Global, HBTC, Kraken, OKEx, Huobi, etc. To learn how to exchange your fiat currencies for $BAL, here is a detailed [guide](https://coinmarketcap.com/how-to-buy-bitcoin/) on how to go about that.

For Balancer, security is a top priority and that is why the protocol has been fully audited three times by Trail of Bits, ConsenSys and OpenZeppelin. There are no admin keys or backdoors, hence, making it trustless, and the balancer pools are not upgradeable. Balancer does not support tokens that do not conform to the [ERC-20](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/erc-20) standard, even though they may be in use on some pools. The tokens held on Balancer pools are not controlled by Balancer, but are smart contracts. Nevertheless, that does not remove the inherent risks of smart contracts. The configurable rights pools (CRPs) ensure that tokens with known issues are barred from being used in pools. It further ensures that all other tokens safely interact with the protocol

Balancer is similar to [Uniswap](https://uniswap.org/) and [Curve](https://www.curve.fi/), in that it enables anyone to create pools of tokens. The pool adjusts itself to keep the tokens equally weighted regardless of changes in their price. However, [one unique feature](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/what-is-decentralized-finance) of Balancer is that more than one token can be added and ETH isn’t required. Although, Balancer isn’t the first DeFi protocol to make use of AMMs, however, it has brought a new face and approach to liquidity. The unique feature of the protocol is that it allows Liquidity providers to have up to eight assets per market which are weighted by percentage and rebalanced automatically. With Balancer, users don’t have to deposit 50% of the desired asset, but are allowed to decide how much of a supported asset they wish to deposit. Another unique feature of Balancer Lab is that users can make a high return on assets that are in low demand through arbitrage opportunities and slippage-reduction. You can learn more about how Balancer works [here](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/categories/blog). How Many Balancer Tokens (BAL) Are There in Circulation? Balancer wasn’t launched with a native token. However, in June 2020, they launched a governance token, $BAL, following the success of Compound’s token COMP. The purpose of the token is to allow for more decentralization and as an incentive for LP. Of the total 100M tokens that were created, 25M were reserved for the team, core developers, investors and advisors. 5M tokens were allocated for the Balancer Ecosystem Fund, which would be used as incentives for strategic partners. Another 5M were allocated for the fundraising fund. This fund will be used by Balancer to support its operation and growth at future fundraisings. The remaining tokens are to be mined by liquidity providers on the platform and are released at a rate of 145K per week. Provided the distribution rate is kept constant, it would take approx. 8.6 years to finish distributing the tokens.

Balancer Lab was founded by Fernando Martinelli and Mike McDonald, but it began as a research program at a software firm “BlockScience” in 2018. The Balancer project features intelligent, like-minded fellows with an acute understanding of the DeFi space.

Balancer is an automated market maker ([AMM](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/automated-market-maker-amm)) that was developed on the Ethereum blockchain and launched in March 2020. It was able to raise a $3M seed round by Placeholder and Accomplice. [Balancer protocol](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/what-is-balancer) functions as a self-balancing weighted portfolio, price sensor and liquidity provider. It allows users to earn profits through its recently introduced token ($BAL) by contributing to customizable liquidity pools. To learn more about this project, check out our deep dive of [Balancer](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/what-is-balancer. The protocol operates a few types of pools: * Private pools give the owner governance over the pool, and make the person the sole contributor of liquidity to the pool. Also, all the parameters are mutable by the owner. * Shared pools are for those who want to become [liquidity providers](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-provider) (LPs). The LPs are rewarded with the Balancer Pool Tokens (BPTs). * Smart pools are similar to private pools but are controlled by a smart contract. They also reward using BPTs and allow anyone to contribute liquidity to the pool.

As a layer-0 project and true to its community ideals, MPOND is distributed amongst stakers of different layer-1 platform tokens via a mechanism called FlowMint. POND can thus be earned by converting such MPOND to POND via the bridge in addition to staking MPOND towards Marlin Metanodes which receive POND in staking rewards.

Built atop Ethereum, the correctness of execution of the Marlin smart contracts is protected by the network of Ethereum nodes. In addition- * The Marlin network consisting of Metanodes risk having their staked MPOND and delegated POND being slashed if the network faces DDoS and spam attacks due to their failure to verify content that they introduce into the network. * Not unlike Proof-of-Work, the network uses tunable redundancy via erasure coding to ensure users receive performance and availability guarantees with the SLAs they demand and are proportionately charged for it. * A network of third-party auditors with probes across the globe, pre-approved by the Pond DAO, provide constant performance and coverage monitoring for applications that demand higher reliability. An insurance fund backed by the DAO is used to compensate users who incur a loss due to the network’s inability to meet its SLA guarantees.

There exist two tokens in the Marlin economy, MPOND and POND. MPOND has a total supply cap of 10,000 while POND is capped at 10,000,000,000. Conversion between the two tokens is facilitated via a bridge which returns 1,000,000 POND when sent 1 MPOND and vice-versa. Initially, 4,623 MPOND and 3,184,000,000 POND are created with POND primarily distributed amongst validators and the community. These numbers may vary over time due to conversions via the bridge. Every Marlin Metanode is required to stake MPOND and receives POND in the form of staking rewards.

Marlin is one of the few layer-0 projects focussed on network layer optimizations. Similar to Filecoin which is incentivized IPFS, Marlin claims to be the equivalent of an incentived libp2p. This makes Marlin ubiquitous in the decentralized web as any peer-to-peer application relies on networking between distributed nodes to function. Marlin is thus blockchain-agnostic. It offers gateways built for several layer-1 as well as layer-2 platforms. Unlike several other scaling solutions which suffer from the scalability trilemma where either one of performance, decentralization or security is sacrificed, improvements in the network layer are not subject to such constraints which primarily govern consensus layers.

Marlin is the brainchild of developers Siddhartha, Prateesh and Roshan, all of whom have extensive experience in peer-to-peer networking. Responsible for the development of Zilliqa, the first high-throughput blockchain to employ sharding in production, Siddhartha has had expexrience working at Microsoft and Adobe and is the author of the 2 US patents. Prateesh is a PhD candidate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) with a focus on Computer Networks and Roshan, an avid open-source enthusiast, was a contributor to the Boost C++ libraries. The project employs former researchers at Ethereum Foundation, International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) world medallists and developers with experience at Facebook, Cisco and Bosch. It counts the former CEO of Bittorrent and professors at MIT and Princeton amongst its advisors including authors of seminal P2P papers such as Chord DHT. Marlin is backed by the likes of Binance Labs, Electric Capital and Michael Arrington.

Marlin is an open protocol that provides a high-performance programmable network infrastructure for DeFi and Web 3.0. The nodes in the Marlin network, called Metanodes, operate the MarlinVM which provides a virtual router interface for developers to deploy customized overlays and perform edge computations. Notable overlays that can be built using MarlinVM include: * Low-latency block multicast to scale blockchains * Low-latency mempool sync for arbitrageurs * Mesh networks * Anonymity networks like mixnets * Device optimization and caching responses of API to Infura, Alchemy etc Its native utility token POND is used for: * Running validator nodes on the network via staking * Making and voting on governance proposals to determine how network resources are allocated * Determining a set of network performance auditors and compensating users from an insurance fund in case of a SLA breach Marlin aims to deliver on the promise of a decentralized web where applications secured via the blockchain are indistinguishable in terms of performance to users accustomed to Web 2.0.

The DeSo blockchain supports not only traditional social features like creating profiles and posts, but also novel blockchain-native features like social tokens (creator coins), tipping, and NFTs. These features unlock vast new categories of money-enabled products, from social NFT experiences to influencer stock markets. These features enable creators to more effectively monetize their content and connect with their followers on DeSo-powered apps. Because DeSo treats social data as a public utility, creators aren't locked-in to a handful of centralized apps. All content on DeSo is stored on a decentralized ledger and is immediately available to a large and growing network of independent third-party apps, akin to DeFi applications on the Ethereum blockchain. DeSo's biggest advantage lies in the fact that it is not a general-purpose blockchain. Instead, it supports a narrow set of social-oriented features that it implements on bare metal, using custom indexes that every node builds during consensus when it syncs from its peers. This allows the DeSo blockchain to reach highly-scalable storage capabilities that are unparalleled by any general-purpose blockchain. For instance, the cost of 1 GB of on-chain storage on DeSo is as low as 1 DeSo, whereas even the best existing smart contract infrastructures require millions ($1,000,000+) of dollars to achieve the same. DeSo has also announced switching to a Proof of Stake consensus by the end of year 2022, which is expected to reach a throughput of hundreds of thousands transactions per second, owing to the strictly defined transaction schema.

DeSo was founded by [Nader Al-Naj](https://www.linkedin.com/in/nader-al-naji-86b14a3a/)i in January 2019. After graduating Princeton University, Al-Naji worked as a software engineer at the D. E. Shaw Group and later at Google on the Google Search and Google Ads teams. Before DeSo, he raised over $133M to start an algorithmic stablecoin Basis in 2017. The DeSo blockchain is supported by the non-profit DeSo Foundation, whose broad mission is to support the decentralization of social media. Al-Naji is currently the chairman of the board of the DeSo Foundation, with a $200 million treasury behind it to support its mission. In October 2021, the DeSo Foundation announced a $50 million developer fund, known as the [Octane Fund].

DeSo is a new layer-1 blockchain built from the ground up to decentralize social media for billions of users. We believe in empowering an internet that’s creator-led, user-owned, and open to millions of developers around the world to build off one another. Today, there’s only a handful of big-tech companies that own and control all the information we consume online. DeSo puts the ownership back in the hands of users, not platforms. Your identity, your profile, your content, and your social graph can now be owned by you in a completely censorship-resistant way. Creators can now freely monetize in a way they could never do before. With new crypto-native monetization tools, like Social Tokens, Social DAOs, Social NFTs, Social Tipping, and more — creators have access to monetize their passion and make a living by doing what they love. Developers can build in a gasless, permissionless, and transparent environment where everything is open and on-chain for ultimate accessibility and composability. DeSo is built to support storage-heavy or infinite-state applications, opening up a new world of non-financial-based web3 apps that weren’t possible before. We can now imagine, build and experience the next generation of web3 social. In the same way, we’ve seen Bitcoin and Ethereum decentralize finance, DeSo is now enabling this for social. We know our mission is colossal, but we believe the world will be better when users, creators, and developers are put first - not corporations. It’s time to break free.

Finschia (FNSA) can be purchased on various centralized exchanges such as [Bitthumb](https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/bithumb/), [Huobi](https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/huobi/), [Bittrex](https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/bittrex/) and [Gate.io](https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/gate-io/). Keep track of FNSA live prices in real-time with the [CMC mobile app](https://coinmarketcap.com/mobile/).

Finschia is secured by a new blockchain consensus engine called Ostracon. The Ostracon consensus engine is based on a combination of [Delegated Proof of Stake](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/delegated-proof-of-stake-dpos) (DPoS) and Tendermint-BFT, which is a modification of the Practical [Byzantine Fault Tolerance](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/byzantine-fault-tolerance-bft) (PBFT) algorithm.

Based on the inflation mechanism included into the chain by default, FNSA can be issued up to a total of 1 billion tokens within the maximum issuance limit. According to the whitepaper, for a stable settlement of the token economy 2.0, the initial inflation rate starts at 15% and the target staking rate is 5% level over time. \ At the time of writing, the circulating supply of FNSA is 6,769,046.
