Comparing Blockchain Protocols, Dapp Development and Solutions

Enabling Mojaloop and Hyperledger

Mojaloop is an open-source digital-payment platform for financial services on a national level. Mojalopp is extremely scalable & interoperable for enabling connection with banks, users, merchants, payments.

What problems does it solve for us?

Mojaloop includes three components: an interoperability layer, which connects mobile money wallets and merchants, a directory service layer, which navigates the different methods that providers use to identify accounts on each side of a transaction; a transactions settlement layer, which makes payments fast and irrevocable.

Mojaloop Capabilities

Money Transfer capabilities

Mojaloop aims at removing this third-party involvement and keeping the transactions only limited to the sender and the receiver.

Ledger capabilities

With the help of Mojaloop, we can save ourselves from any overheads and third party involvements and send or receiving money could be as hassle-free as sending emails. BlockChain Technology is a peer to peer software technology that protects a digital piece of information.

Scalability

Given interledger’s impressive interoperability, scalability - regarding adding support for new financial institutions and financial services seems painless

Programmability

Fairly standard web APIs; trivial JS implementations - very programmable friendly

Security

Interledger protocol accounts for sufficient security measures for money transfers (via Hash-Time-Locked-Contracts)

Ease of Use

Extensive documentation, Mojaloop APIs that are straightforward & easy to understand.

Enabling Hyperledger

Hyperledger is an open source collaborative based on blockchain.It is including leaders in finance, banking, Internet of Things, supply chains, manufacturing and Technology.

Interoperability

It supports multiple token and cryptocurrencies, and many of them are based on Ethereum platform only.

TX costs

7/10; faster than BTC & still relatively cheap per transaction

XLM

Stellar is a  blockchain based platform that connects banks, payments systems, and people. XLM helps to move money quickly, reliably, and at low cost.Stellar also features a built-in distributed exchange which allows people to not only buy and sell currencies but also to convert from one currency to another during cross-currency transactions.

Capabilities

Scalability

A single transaction consists of many operations like payment, offers and fees.

Processing rate – 1000 operations per second

Programmability

A technical team will setup database table, write code to listen to the stellar ledger, conduct transaction and can test integration.

Ease of use

Free to use, need 120-200 hours for integration depending on size and experience of the development team.

Security

Base account’s details can be stored on an offline computer. Can freeze assets if the account is AUTHORIZATION REVOCABLE.

Interoperability

Allow easy and cheap transfers between any pair of currencies.

TX costs

0.00001 XLM (Very low)

9/10; extremely fast & cheap comparative to other leaders in speed & cost like Ethereum

Ripple
