Cronos is an EVM chain built on Cosmos SDK with IBC connectivity, acting as the smart‑contract hub for the Crypto.com ecosystem. Its Cronos Gravity Bridge allows native ERC‑20 assets to move between Cosmos zones and Ethereum, and a native staking module pays ~12 % APR in CRO. The chain’s Gas Grants program has onboarded over 400 projects since 2022.
Hedera Hashgraph uses a gossip‑about‑gossip DAG protocol that achieves asynchronous Byzantine fault tolerance and finality in 3‑5 seconds. Governing Council members like Google and IBM run permissioned nodes, and the Hedera Token Service allows issuance without smart‑contract coding. The 2024 ‘Smart Contract 2.0’ release introduced Solidity bytecode support via Hyperledger Besu integration.
