BAMBOO (formerly known as PandaCoin):
https://github.com/mr-pandabear/bamboo
Bamboo makes use of ED25519 https://ed25519.cr.yp.to/ which has half the public key size of SECP256k1 (the signing scheme used by BTC and ETH)... the verification speeds of ED25519 are empirically 8-10x that of SECP256k1. All of this means we can have much lower block minting times with larger transaction counts per block as well as faster startup times for new nodes. Other notable differences from bitcoin:
- 25k transactions per block
- 90 second block mint time
- Account-based model instead of UTXO model
The goal of the currency is to be an efficient store of value with fast transactions built with minimal, elegant code.
The first iteration of the chain has just launched and you can view the block explorer here:
http://ec2-34-218-176-84.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/
Quick start scripts for installing a Bamboo node for Ubuntu & Centos can be found here:
