Koinos is a blockchain under development, with a few distinct goals:
- Koinos Blockchain Framework
- fee-less transactions (Mana Whitepaper)
- multi programming language support (C++, AssemblyScript and more in the future)
- upgrades without hard forks
- proof of burn consensus (Consensus Whitepaper)
The Koinos Group just released a new whitepaper: Koinos: A free-to-use dApp platform with a provably egalitarian, fast, and fee-less digital currency
It combines the previous stand-alone topical whitepapers and expands on them.
