Liquid Network Description
Transactions with Bitcoin are faster and more secure. Liquid, a sidechain-based settlement system for traders and exchanges allows for faster, more secure Bitcoin transactions and the issuance digital assets. Liquid allows traders to quickly transfer funds between exchanges and their wallets, without waiting for long confirmation times. Anyone can issue new assets via Liquid. This includes security tokens and stablecoins. Every asset can be traded within the network. This allows Liquid to take advantage of its privacy, speed, security, and trading features. The default on the Liquid sidechain hides asset types and amounts. This protects traders' sensitive financial information from third parties and prevents the front-running large orders. The open-source Liquid Swaps Tool allows each asset to be swapped for another asset.

Carbon Protocol
Carbon is a cross-chain protocol which acts as a building block to DeFi. Anyone can bootstrap open financial markets on any blockchain, for any asset type, using the Carbon protocol. Carbon powers Demex, a popular and fully decentralized exchange that allows trading of a wide range of financial instruments. Interoperable between blockchains such as Ethereum, Cosmos and BSC. It also powers the PolyNetwork bridge, which allows for true cross-chain liquidity pools. Any DeFi innovation is supported with native support for crypto derivatives, Balancer style liquidity pools, AMMs and on-chain orders books. Cosmos-SDK custom-built and secured by a large network validators through Tendermint PoS to ensure trustless and secure transactions.

Lightning Network
Bitcoin Lightning Network. Instant Payments. Lightning-fast, blockchain payments without the need for block confirmation. Blockchain smart-contracts ensure security without the need to create an on-blockchain transaction for individual transactions. Payment speed is measured in milliseconds to seconds. Scalability. The network can handle millions to billions in transactions per second. Legacy payment rails are thrown out the window by this capacity. It is now possible to attach payment per click/action without custodians. Low cost. Lightning Network allows for extremely low fees by transacting and settling off blockchain. This allows for emerging use cases like instant micropayments. Cross Blockchains. Cross-chain atomic Swaps can be made off-chain immediately using heterogeneous blockchain consensus rules. Transactios can be made across blockchains as long as they support the same cryptographic haveh function.
