Mina MINA

The Mina protocol aims to operate the first-ever compressed blockchain. The Mina protocol was created in 2017 with the aim to be a compressed blockchain platform. This means that the entire chain is about 22kb in size, taking roughly as much space on someones computer as a couple of tweets. Mina was designed for users who do not have much computing power to still be able to operate a node. Mina is a proof-of-stake protocol for programmable payments, apps, permissionless privacy and more, governed by its participants, and secured cryptographically.
