# CanaryKeys: A New Extendable Blockchain For Digital Certificates, Web of Trust, and Social Media
> **Notice:** This is a work in progress and is not fully implemented yet. It is currently mostly an idea but some basic functionality has been implemented.
CanaryKeys is a blockchain project that is **extendable** and **can support multiple chains for different purposes** due to its use of the **Block Lattice Data Structure**.
## Current Implemented Chains
### The Transaction Chain
This is the primary chain and the one where all monetary transactions take place. It will also support tokens.
### The Voting Chain
This chain is used to vote for delegates to act as your representative to produce blocks. This may be merged into the transaction chain.
### The Certificate Chain (supports Web of Trust)
The Certificate Chain is used to sign other people's certificates and it naturally supports Web of Trust. It uses Schnorr Signatures.
### The Social Chain
The Social Chain contains verified and unverified links to your social media accounts.
### The Project Chain
The Project Chain contains any projects that will be built on top of CanaryKeys. It can also be used to raise funds.
