peaq gives robots and machines everything they need to do business, on every chain. peaqOS enables machines — robots, vehicles, devices, AI agents — to show up on any chain as liquid assets with identities, wallets, reputation, and the ability to provide services, trade, and prove what they did. peaq is the economic system for a human-centric Machine Economy where autonomous machines are a new asset class and every human can have a stake. It is home to 60+ applications in 20+ industries and to the millions of machines that run on them. For more information, visit peaq or follow peaq on Twitter/X for updates.

Analog is a completely decentralized, PoT-based, layer-0 platform for communicating validated event data. At the core of the platform are tesseracts and time nodes (explained later) that can privately fetch and confirm event data from sovereign chains, allowing different ecosystems to speak the same language. Our mission is to usher in trustless, omnichain interoperability that allows developers to easily build their applications via a universal protocol and an API. We are also unveiling a novel, superfast PoT protocol that creates verifiable event data on the Timechain, allowing DApp developers to build next-generation event-based applications. We believe that each Blockchain ecosystem has its core strengths, use cases, developer pools, and liquidity pools (LPs). Blockchains should benefit from trading functionalities, assets, and LPs; the same way economies benefit from cross-border trade. Our vision is to facilitate omnichain interoperability to enable developers to deploy DApps from any network to any other Blockchain, in a near codeless format, and at scale.

Minima is a fully decentralised Layer 1 blockchain designed to run on everyday devices. Unlike traditional blockchains that rely on powerful servers or validators, Minima enables any smartphone, embedded system, or IoT device to run a full node, creating a globally distributed network owned and operated by its users. Minima is pioneering Blockchain-on-Chip: integrating blockchain functionality directly into semiconductor hardware so devices can verify data, exchange value, and interact securely without centralized infrastructure. Alongside the core protocol, Integritas provides a decentralized data integrity layer that allows organizations to securely record, verify, and audit critical data on-chain, creating tamper-proof digital records for industries such as supply chain, IoT, infrastructure, and enterprise systems. Together, these technologies support the next generation of Decentralised Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) and the emerging AI & machine-to-machine economies, where devices can exchange trusted data and value autonomously. Minima is building the infrastructure for a decentralised world of connected devices.
