There is an alternative emerging called the distributed Byzantine Fault Tolerance algorithm (or dBFT) which is used by Antshares, the Shanghai-based blockchain startup technology company, as well as Hyperledger.

Performance is key to the Antshares unique and emerging brand, where Antshares' smart contracts proudly uses a lightweight AVM (Antshares Virtual Machine) for their runtime environment which starts quickly and consumes much less energy than alternative environments.

The programming languages Antshares can use provides a stark contrast to Ethereum which uses C++, GO, and Solidity. Antshares developers can use any advanced language they wish, such as C#, VB, .Net and F# and will soon also support JAVA, C, C++, GO, Python, and Javascript.

The impressive assortment of programming languages will give endless opportunity for existing businesses and organizations to transfer their systems into the blockchain, which will make the adoption of the technology relatively smooth.

June 2017 will see the official release of Antshares' smart contracts 2.0 and the company will also collaborate with Innospace to hold a Blockchain startup competition twoard the end of May, which is sponsored by Shanghai Science and Technology Committee.
