Signum is the energy efficient blockchain based on Proof of Comittment (PoC+) used by the cryptocurrency Signa (Ꞩ). It was the first blockchain technology to achieve consensus by relying on miner hard drive space to solve cry energy efficient because it relies on hard drive storage to achieve

The blockchain was the first to use a Proof of Capacity consensus (Signum was the first blockchain to support Turing-complete smart contracts and non-fungible tokens. various digital tokens, smart


Signum was released in 2014 as Burstcoin,.[1] The original developer was known only by the alias “Burstcoin” and disappeared shortly after the project was made public.
