 # Lightchain
 
+**Lightchain = Ethereum + Tendermint**
+
 This is the official Lightstreams implementation of a proof-of-authority (PoA) blockchain. Lightchain is an ethereum-compatible blockchain which uses byzantine consensus to replace the original proof-of-work (PoW) from Ethereum. This is achieved by integrating [`tendermint`](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint) for the consensus layer.
 
 ## About Lightstreams
 
-We are currently working hard to release the **Lightstreams main network** which aims to provide a fast, privacy-enabled, content-sharing blockchain. Stay tuned about our project's progress by reading [the lightstreams blog](https://medium.com/lightstreams) or by checking out the [Lightstreams' website](https://www.lightstreams.network).
