Overview What is Ontology
Ontology is a new high-performance public blockchain project & a distributed trust collaboration platform.It provides new high-performance public blockchains that include a series of complete distributed ledgers and smart contract systems. Ontology is a blockchain framework supports public blockchain systems and is able to customize different public blockchains for different applications. It also supports collaboration amongst chain networks with its various protocol groups.They will constantly provide common modules on the underlying infrastructure for different kinds of distributed scenarios, such as those for the distributed digital identity framework, distributed data exchange protocol, and so on.
Ontology was created in 2017 by a Chinese company called OnChain, which is led by founders Erik Zhang and Da HongFei. OnChain has had huge success in the cryptocurrency industry, as they were also the founders behind the NEO blockchain, which is now a multi-billion dollar project. Essentially, Ontology was created as a way for businesses of all sizes to install blockchain technology within their company, without having to completely change all of their current systems.
The purpose of the Ontology framework is that it is not intended to operate as a single blockchain. Instead, the technology will allow businesses to make full use of both a private and public blockchain. Each and every data transaction is confirmed in a decentralized environment, meaning that no single person or authority can take control of the network.

Heat score Heat factor breakdown
20
Heat scoreCOLDOverall heat score
How the overall score is built: market gate 42 (applied to everything) × geometric mean of the four factors 48 (momentum, liquidity, fundamentals and supply, multiplied together) → 20. It is not a simple average: a weak market holds the whole score down, and a single weak factor drags the rest with it.
Factor breakdown (0–100; higher means more conditions are in place)
Regime (market gate)gate
42
→ The market gate is neutral. Asset-specific factors decide this one.
Momentum
24
→ The recent price trend is down. Going against it needs a reason.
Liquidity (traded volume depth)
89
→ Volume is deep enough that a move is one you could actually participate in.
Fundamentals (TVL / market cap)
24
→ Little capital is locked relative to market cap, or the asset is outside TVL coverage.
Supply lightness
100
→ Most of the supply already circulates, so unlock pressure is light.
Development activity → 1 code updates in the last four weeks — on the quiet side.
