What is VeChain
VeChain is a blockchain platform designed to enhance business processes and supply chain management. The main goal of VeChain is to enable process and information flow smoothly within complex supply chains using distributed ledger technology.
VeChain was founded by Sunny Lu, Former CIO (Chief Information Officer) of Louis Vuitton China in 2015.
VeChain currently have two tokens under its wings
- VeChain Token (VET)
- VeChain Thor (VTHO)
VET is VeChain’s Native Token known as VeChain Token and it is meant to carry a value like money or “Smart money” from Smart contracts.
The VTHO which stands for VeChainThor Energy is also known as VeThor Energy. The purpose of VeThor energy is to power the transactions done on VeChain which translates to the cost of conducting transactions on its blockchain.
The concept is like which Ethereum uses by utilizing the ether and NEO’s gas. The only thing which differs it from the Ethereum is that Ethereum lacks in the aspects of the price of the ether, its native gas token is volatile.
The VeChainThor Blockchain uses proof of authority (POA) as a consensus protocol. Proof of Authority is an algorithm used with blockchain which allows the delivery of transactions comparatively fast through a consensus mechanism by putting identity as a stake.
