Title: Metrics to distinguish blockchain development companies
Post by: santaclause102 on October 01, 2015, 07:22:11 pm

Please brainstorm with me... 

What are the metrics that distinguish the various blockchain / distributed ledger tech stacks:

At the moment I have:


Development support for public / private blockchains
Development support for regulatory compliant blockchains
Open Source
IP protected
Scalability (transaction throughput, settlement speed, cost efficiency)
Scope: Amount of applications possible (without meta protocols)
Governance and self funding ability for public blockchains
Virality potential
External developer tools and documentation as of today


Please don't be afraid to suggest metrics that let CNX look bad! Being realistic creates trust.

In a table it looks like this: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DxMu13EYH1fB0HWYyagWD1IlXhmy4SnRXJjiCyHs3AM/edit?usp=sharing

It will be part of a pitch we are creating to be used in China..

Attractiveness to developers (tools and compensation).
Self-funding ability / profitability
Support for regulatory compliance needs.

The main 2 problems of Bitcoin that Bitshares solves is scalability and price stability with market pegged assets, since nobody wants to hold coins with unstable price.
