What makes Algorand unique?

Algorand was invented for the purpose of speeding up transactions speeds and efficiency. This is largely in response to the slower transactions times shown by Bitcoin, and other large blockchain projects. Algorand is designed to be a blockchain platform that focuses on near-instant transaction finality. This means processing over 1,000 transactions per second and having those transactions finalised in less than 4 seconds.

Algorand is based on a permissionless proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain protocol, meaning that there is no mining and therefore having a less energy-intensive process.
