The New Blockchain Phonebook
Imagine if you could find every blockchain project listed in one convenient directory, much like the trusty Yellow Pages of yore. That’s precisely what IBM has signed up for with the Unbounded Registry. This project, spearheaded by blockchain startup HACERA, aims to provide a decentralized platform for registering, discovering, and transacting across a multitude of blockchain solutions, making everything interoperable under one digital roof.
Why the Unbounded Registry?
The blockchain world can be a bewildering place, akin to a kid in a candy store but with way too many flavors to choose from. The Unbounded Registry seeks to tackle significant hurdles, such as:
- Reserved Naming: Avoiding the headache of name conflicts for new blockchain projects.
- Discoverability: Making it easier for developers to find and connect with existing networks.
- Domain-Specific Services: Offering a catalog of specialized functions for varying applications.
Joining Forces with Tech Giants
IBM isn’t tackling this colossal project alone. They’re rubbing shoulders with tech heavyweights like Intel, Huawei, and even the Australian Blockchain Association. It’s like a techy Avengers assemble moment, coming together to fortify the blockchain universe!
IBM’s Ongoing Blockchain Endeavors
IBM has been quite the blockchain enthusiast lately. From launching the Blockchain World Wire payment network for international bank settlements to teaming up with Maersk for a blockchain-based shipping solution, they are all in. It’s like they’ve opened a blockchain buffet with one delicious dish after another.
Shifting Gears in Digital Media
Back in June, IBM iX branched into the media realm, launching a blockchain tracker in collaboration with Mediaocean. Their mission? To clean up the media buying industry by providing transparency and trust. If only they could apply that same principle to reality TV, right?
