Cronos
CRONCronos is a low-cost blockchain built for real-world crypto payments and mobile money use. It runs alongside Crypto.com's main platform and supports EVM-compatible apps. That means Ethereum-based projects can launch here with almost no changes.
The chain focuses on privacy and real utility. It's built to support everyday crypto use (like store purchases) without high fees or long wait times. Users who meet certain staking and compliance rules can also help run the network and earn rewards for doing so.
CRON tokens are used in staking, payments, rewards, and other features that support real use. Thanks to its link with the broader CRO ecosystem, it's also a solid choice for projects that want cross-chain access.
The growing list of Cronos-based projects includes both small community coins and larger apps built for real use. Many tools go live on Cronos before reaching other networks. Active users can explore features, claim rewards, or join platforms before they grow mainstream.
