Flow features a multi‑role architecture—collection, consensus, execution and verification nodes—that splits tasks for high throughput while keeping deterministic execution. Cadence, its resource‑oriented language, powers popular NFT projects like NBA Top Shot and Gaia marketplace. The 2024 ‘Spork’ upgrade introduced FCL walletless onboarding and bridged USDC from Ethereum to boost DeFi liquidity.
Stacks is a Bitcoin Layer‑2 secured by Proof‑of‑Transfer where miners commit BTC to mint STX and anchor blocks to Bitcoin every 10–15 minutes. Clarity smart contracts enable DeFi with Bitcoin finality, and the sBTC proposal aims to bring a two‑way peg for native BTC on chain. The Nakamoto upgrade scheduled for 2025 will reduce block times to five seconds and add probabilistic Bitcoin finality.
