OfficeSpace1 Making permissioned blockchains interoperable with Weaver - Blockchain Pulse: IBM Blockchain Blog

[ad_1] Share this post: Distributed ledger technology (DLT) has gone beyond its experimental phase and is now actively managing several enterprise workflows around the world in areas like trade logistics, export finance, inter-bank payments, and regulatory compliance. But this has not led to convergence, either to a default technology stack or to a single global network that everyone runs applications on.

The beer itself tells a story of how those ingredients were combined and how farmers, brewers, shippers and more worked together to bring you the bottle in your hands. Earlier this year, Ängöl Brewery, a popular Swedish microbrewer, released Helt Spårat, traced by IBM Food Trust and Sweden’s first blockchain-traceable beer. Helt…
