Solana

Solana is a high-performance proof-of-stake blockchain conceived by Anatoly Yakovenko in 2017. Its white paper proposed Proof of History as a verifiable ordering mechanism for distributed systems; Solana Labs, the Solana Foundation, validators, and open-source developers subsequently developed the network.
