Embark is a framework that allows you to easily develop and deploy Decentralized Applications (DApps). A Decentralized Application is a serverless html5 application that uses one or more decentralized technologies. Embark currently integrates with EVM blockchains (Ethereum), Decentralized Storages (IPFS), and Decentralized communication platforms (Whisper and Orbit). Swarm is supported for deployment.

OrbitDB is a serverless, distributed, peer-to-peer database. OrbitDB uses IPFS as its data storage and IPFS Pubsub to automatically sync databases with peers. It's an eventually consistent database that uses CRDTs for conflict-free database merges making OrbitDB an excellent choice for decentralized apps (dApps), blockchain applications and offline-first web applications.
 
OrbitDB provides various types of databases for different data models and use cases:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://github.com/orbitdb/orbit-db/blob/master/API.md#orbitdblognameaddress" target="_blank">log</a>: an immutable (append-only) log with traversable history. Useful for "latest N" use cases or as a message queue.</li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/orbitdb/orbit-db/blob/master/API.md#orbitdbfeednameaddress" target="_blank">feed</a>: a mutable log with traversable history. Entries can be added and removed. Useful for "shopping cart" type of use cases, or for example as a feed of blog posts or "tweets".</li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/orbitdb/orbit-db/blob/master/API.md#orbitdbkeyvaluenameaddress" target="_blank">keyvalue</a>: a key-value database just like your favourite key-value database.</li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/orbitdb/orbit-db/blob/master/API.md#orbitdbdocsnameaddress-options" target="_blank">docs</a>: a document database to which JSON documents can be stored and indexed by a specified key. Useful for building search indices or version controlling documents and data.</li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/orbitdb/orbit-db/blob/master/API.md#orbitdbcounternameaddress" target="_blank">counter</a>: Useful for counting events separate from log/feed data.</li>
</ul>

Sia is a new decentralized cloud storage platform that radically alters the landscape of cloud storage. By leveraging smart contracts, client-side encryption, and sophisticated redundancy (via Reed-Solomon codes), Sia allows users to safely store their data with hosts that they do not know or trust. The result is a cloud storage marketplace where hosts compete to offer the best service at the lowest price. And since there is no barrier to entry for hosts, anyone with spare storage capacity can join the network and start making money.
 
 Sia splits apart, encrypts, and distributes your files across a decentralized network. Since you hold the keys, you own your data. No outside company can access or control your files, unlike traditional cloud storage providers.

Yjs is a modular building blocks for building collaborative applications like Google Docs and Figma. Yjs is a high-performance CRDT for building collaborative applications that sync automatically. It exposes its internal CRDT model as shared data types that can be manipulated concurrently. Shared types are similar to common data types like Map and Array. They can be manipulated, fire events when changes happen, and automatically merge without merge conflicts.

GUN is a realtime, distributed, offline-first, graph database engine. Lightweight and powerful. GUN does state synchronization out of the box. It is peer-to-peer by design, meaning you have no centralized database server to maintain. It has offline support, works even without internet. Users can save data offline and when when the network comes back online GUN will automatically synchronize the data. 
 
GUN is a data­base en­gine that runs every­where JavaScript does — browsers, mo­bile de­vices and servers, al­low­ing you to build ex­act­ly the data sys­tem you want. GUN's se­cu­ri­ty mod­ule is built on strong en­cryp­tion stan­dards and works com­plete­ly de­cen­tral­ized. In oth­er words — real pri­va­cy with no sin­gle point of fail­ure.

Zcash is an implementation of the "Zerocash" protocol. Based on Bitcoin's code, it intends to offer a far higher standard of privacy through a sophisticated zero-knowledge proving scheme that preserves confidentiality of transaction metadata. Bitcoin and most cryptocurrencies expose your entire payment history to the public. Zcash is the first open, permissionless cryptocurrency that can fully protect the privacy of transactions using zero-knowledge cryptography.
 
 Zcash also enables users to send public payments which work similarly to Bitcoin. With the support for both shielded and transparent addresses, users can choose to send Zcash privately or publicly. Zcash payments sent from a shielded address to a transparent address reveal the received balance, while payments from a transparent address to a shielded address protect the receiving value.

LBRY is a protocol that provides a fully decentralized network for the discovery, distribution, and payment of data. It utilizes the LBRY blockchain as a global namespace and database of digital content. Blockchain entries contain searchable content metadata, identities, and rights and access rules. It also provides a data network consists of peers uploading and downloading data from other peers, possibly in exchange for payments, and a distributed hash table, used by peers to discover other peers.
 
LBRY is a free, open, and community-run digital marketplace. You own your data. You control the network. Indeed, you are the network.

Vertcoin is a digital currency that can be sent between people over the internet. Vertcoin (VTC) stays true to the original vision of cryptocurrency: a financial system owned by its users, the people’s coin. Vertcoin is not controlled by large banks or mining hardware manufacturers and can be mined by anyone profitably. Fairly distributed without a premine, ICO or airdrop, Vertcoin is developed by community members working as volunteers and the project is wholly funded by donations. A finite resource similar to gold, you can rest assured that Vertcoin will keep your money safe from vested interests and ensure that transaction fees are proportionate and shared between a large number of miners. With Vertcoin, you can truly be your own bank.
