Tezos
The Project
Tezos is a distributed consensus platform with meta-consensus capability. Tezos not only comes to consensus about the state of its ledger, like Bitcoin or Ethereum. It also attempts to come to consensus about how the protocol and the nodes should adapt and upgrade.

always in sync with the master branch (which may be desynchronized with
the code running on the live networks, replace
