>LISK is filling the technical gap that other platforms like ETH or Stratis is unable to solve:

The flexibility of SQL. Relational systems are also great at ad-hoc queries, which the other systems are notoriously bad at

The robustness of relational databases. Relational databases have been the power-horse of software applications since the 80s, and continue so to this day. Bitcoin and Ethereum blockchain database are experimental

Leverage existing skills without requiring developers to learn unique techniques to create blockchain apps. It reduces cost of development, time-to-market and has lower barrier of entry to outside developers. That's how Android beats Apple's iOS

JavaScript for the whole stack. It can be a very attractive feature to millions of JavaScript developers.

Flexibility of sidechain-based development model. Developer can customize everything he wants to fit his vision and business model. Start-ups or big corporations will like it very much.

Enhanced security by isolation. The main chain is isolated from other sidechains. Also, each sidechain defines its own data model, data storage and security model. Therefore, the failure of a chain has no impact on the others.

Linear scalability for blockchain applications, based on optional share-nothing architecture. Bitcoin, Ethereum have limited scalability because of their mandatory share-everything architecture.

Support both permissioned and permissionless blockchains

Worry-free upgrades – Sidechain developer is free to upgrade their application, change data structure, algorithms without affecting other sidechains and the main chain. It is very developer-friendly. It makes LISK a less risky platform to develop applications on
