As you guys know [Graphene](http://docs.bitshares.org/) technology has been used years ago on Bitshares (2013), Steem and lately EOS, this makes Bitshares becomes the first Graphene's case of use into the Blockchain technology (Cryptos). So, these "new creators" from 2017, as [these posts¹˙²](https://news.bitcoin.com/graphene-block-propagation-technology-claims-to-be-10x-more-efficient/) show, are not really the creators of Graphene because Graphene existed already, even if you take a look at their profiles they don't cite anything about Graphene as a previous investigation or developement. Also if [searching Graphene blockchain by Google](https://www.google.com.ar/search?ei=wzMBWuTmCIS7wATGnr_oAw&q=graphene+blockchain&oq=graphene+block&gs_l=psy-ab.1.0.35i39k1j0l3.14346.15476.0.17243.6.6.0.0.0.0.93.476.6.6.0..2..0...1.1.64.psy-ab..0.6.473...0i67k1.0.65JM40HpA64) you will be able to confirm where this technology come from. So, Graphene is not a technology created suddenly 24 hours ago. They are, instead, implementing Graphene into the Bitcoin's Bockchain. 

The Graphene Technology was created by [Cryptonomex](https://cryptonomex.com/), company wich Daniel Larimer was part of, Daniel Larimer is the creator of [Bitshares](https://bitshares.org/) as well.  Graphene is the reason why Bitshares has the highest performance technology implemented into the cryptos.
