PARACHAINS: are application-specific data structures that run parallel to each other and with the relay chain. They could be blockchains, but that's not necessary. These parachains take advantage of Polkadot's security, interoperability, scalability and governance. Thanks to a system called ( XCM), parachains can communicate cross-chain, and even transfer any data or asset between each other.
⏩PARATHREADS: is a parachain that only participates temporarily on the polkadot network. Instead of taking part in the parachain auction to acquire a lease, they pay to participate on a block-to-block basis. It allows projects which don't have the capital or a community following yet to use the relay chain without participate in the parachain auctions. They pay a fee in DOT for each block they produce and is validated on the Relay Chain.
⏩COMMON GOOD PARACHAINS: Common good parachains are system-system chains that have no economic model by themselves, but their existence is crucial to support Polkadot ecosystem. Instead of participating in the parachain auction to obtain a slot, they can be simply assigned a slot through Polkadot's on-chain governance mechanism. Common good parachains include bridges, tokens, issuers and others. Their goal is to make the Relay Chain more efficient by moving functionality and logic out of the Relay Chain into a parachain.
