Additional information about each token follows:
Dimension (DYM) A blockchain network famous for RollApps. The blockchain focuses on the play-to-earn gaming and decentralized finance (DeFi) sectors and is managed by Dymension Hub. It improves data processing over a data availability network and provides a RollApp development kit for developers. The network operations and user reward system are based on the DYM token, initially distributed to the community through the Genesis Rolldrop, and form a key part of Dymension’s strategic growth in the blockchain sector.

6 networks (SEI) It is a layer 1 blockchain developed by Cosmos that aims to provide next-generation DeFi infrastructure. Sei Network leverages a central limit order book (CLOB) to facilitate decentralized application (dApp) integration and access to liquidity within the Cosmos ecosystem. SEI validators may choose to accept other Cosmos ecosystem-endorsed tokens for gas payments, depending on network governance. SEI tokens allow users to pay gas fees and also function as the protocol’s governance token. For more information, check out our Kraken Learning Center guide on how to buy Sei Network (SEI).
Tron (TRX) It is a smart contract-enabled blockchain platform that allows developers to deploy their own decentralized apps (dApps). TRON is powered by a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism, which allows holders of its native token, TRX, to vote on who can receive rewards by validating transactions on the blockchain. TRON’s vision is to create a decentralized version of the Internet. For more information, check out our Kraken Learning Center guide: How to Buy Tron (TRX).
