What is Lisk? What's Unique about it? Quick Update

in cryptocurrency •  7 years ago  (edited)

Lisk is a public blockchain platform that provides decentralized blockchain apps. It was forked in 2016 from Crypti. In essence, ​it's very similar to Ethereum but with some key differences:

Lisk is:

  • A cryptocurrency
  • A sidechain platform
  • A blockchain application platform
  • A blockchain service platform
  • A decentralized directory for applications
  • A decentralized and public delegate marketplace

Lisk Isn't:

  • A smart contract platform
  • A Bitcoin Startup
  • A Scam

Lisk allows users to write applications using Javascript, this is the biggest USP I found when researching the platform. Javascript is a widely adopted coding software tool which opens up a lot of developers into this space. Simplifying the creation of dapps is very appealing as many developers are eager to start building applications, Lisk might fill this gap meaning a bright future for the platform.

Lisk is a framework that allows users to deploy their own sidechains and develop blockchain applications on top of them. That means developers can build platform independent dapps on their own blockchain and without interacting with the rest of the protocol and peer-to-peer network. Each dapp has its own 'inception' of side chains within a full blockchain.

These are some of the more interesting features on Lisk, I recommend you check their​ website:

There are also other features on Lisk​. Please comment any you believe​ need to be written​ about. In conclusion, ​Lisk has a bright future. Simplifying​ dapps and keeping blockchains clean and efficient​ is important. when there's a lot​ of traffic, problems​ arise. Just look at Ethereum when big ICO's launch.

How it is used. Please explain me in detail. Please vote

it's basically a user-friendly dapp creation platform​ with some extra clever systems (sidechains) to ensure​ apps don't run slow at peak times.

Thank you very much.
