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.
THORChain is a Tendermint‑based cross‑chain liquidity protocol where nodes bond RUNE to secure pools of native L1 assets like BTC, ETH and ATOM. Swaps execute via continuous liquidity pools with slip‑based fees, and the ‘Streaming Swaps’ feature splits large orders to minimize price impact. The 2023 mainnet added Savers vaults, letting depositors earn single‑asset yield without IL exposure.
