The High-Performance Blockchain (HPB) project seeks to address the problem of scalability from both the software and hardware aspect of things.
HPB combines a customized hardware Blockchain Offload Engine (BOE) with high-performance blockchain software. The addition of a hardware-based BOE, allows for high transaction speed and extremely low latency. The team claims that 'there is no compromise in terms of security and decentralization, as the Node network verifies transactions worldwide and is comprised of a dual election mechanism combining the best aspects of voting and delegation'.
