Hey Hackers!

Welcome back to another edition of Company of the Week! We like to share an awesome tech company from our tech company database every week, making its evergreen mark on the internet.


This week, we’re excited to showcase Obyte, a decentralized cryptocurrency platform that uses Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) technology instead of a traditional blockchain. Without miners or block producers, users can add transactions directly to the ledger, making the system more decentralized and resistant to censorship.



Meet Obyte: Fun Facts!

Since its launch in 2016, Obyte has quietly built one of the most versatile platforms in the decentralized space. From programmable smart contracts powered by Autonomous Agents to self-sovereign identity, payment channels, and oracle integrations — it's packed with tools for developers and users alike.


Privacy lovers will appreciate Blackbytes, Obyte’s untraceable currency, and sending crypto is as easy as an email thanks to textcoins. Want legally binding agreements on-chain? Obyte’s got prosaic contracts for that. Altogether, it’s a feature-rich ecosystem designed for people who want full control of their digital finance — without sacrificing usability.

Learn more about Obyte’s features and technology here.
