Under Kokoski's leadership, Dione Protocol has developed several components, including a [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) ecosystem, hardware infrastructure, and a decentralized energy trading platform. The project initially launched on the [Ethereum](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum) network before developing its own standalone [Layer 1](https://iq.wiki/wiki/layer-1) [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) named Odyssey. Odyssey is designed to be a purpose-built chain for [Real World Assets (RWA)](https://iq.wiki/wiki/real-world-assets-rwas), specifically targeting the power and utility industries. The protocol's stated mission is to bring the global energy market on-chain, empowering users to produce, share, and consume renewable energy through [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain)-based incentives.

Renewable energy sources power the Odyssey [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) and incorporate several key features. It is [EVM](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum-virtual-machine-evm)-compatible, allowing for interoperability and asset transfers with other popular networks. The chain operates on a hybrid model, functioning as a permissionless base layer that can support permissioned applications through a feature called "Infi-Nets." To maintain decentralization, Odyssey utilizes a [Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS)](https://iq.wiki/wiki/delegated-proof-of-stake-dpos) [consensus mechanism](https://iq.wiki/wiki/consensus-mechanism), designed to support a large number of [validators](https://iq.wiki/wiki/validator) and incentivize community participation. The Dione ecosystem also includes the AMARA DEX, a token bridge, and an [NFT](https://iq.wiki/wiki/non-fungible-token-nft) bridge for transferring assets between [Ethereum](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum) and Odyssey.
