Algorand is a permissionless, pure proof-of-stake blockchain that delivers decentralization, scalability, and security.

algorand-relay

Algorand is an open-source, permissionless blockchain protocol and the first that utilizes Pure Proof-of-Stake (PPoS). PPoS  does not require nodes to lock up their funds for a pre-defined amount of time like in other Proof-of-Stake systems.

It is a scalable, decentralized and secure layer 1 network that can power the next generation of financial products.

There are two types of nodes within the Algorand network

- Relay nodes: The primary use of relay nodes is communication routing to connected non-relay nodes. As a result, relay nodes require significantly more power to handle data flows to and from multiple connections
- Participation nodes: These nodes are connected to relay nodes and participate in Proof-of-Stake consensus.

bifrost

Bifrost is a Polkadot parachain developed using Substrate that is vertical to the Staking Ecology. Users can swap PoS Token to Bifrost vToken through the Bifrost transfer bridge at any time to obtain Staking income and liquidity.


bifrost-validator

Staking usually encourages the locking of funds for a certain period of time. While this helps with price stability, it does mean that liquid tokens for trading and transactions decrease. 
Furthermore, price slippage can occur as smaller market orders have more significant impacts on the current price.
Bifrost helps solve these problems with its vToken and cross-chain method. Bifrost’s protocol allows it to connect with several different public PoS chains so that users can automatically compound without any lockup period and the vToken is mapped to whatever asset you deposited (vETH, vEOS, etc.), which is how you accrue interest.
