| + | : //**Hyperledger** is an open source collaborative effort created to advance cross-industry [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:b:blockchain|blockchain]] technologies. It is a global collaboration, hosted by The Linux Foundation, including leaders in finance, banking, [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:i:iot|Internet of Things]], supply chains, manufacturing and Technology.// | ||
| + | |||
| + | : //Not since the Web itself has a technology promised broader and more fundamental revolution than blockchain technology. A blockchain is a peer-to-peer [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:d:distributed_ledgers|distributed ledger]] forged by consensus, combined with a system for “smart contracts” and other assistive technologies. Together these can be used to build a new generation of transactional applications that establishes trust, [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:a:accountability|accountability]] and transparency at their core, while streamlining business processes and legal constraints.// | ||
| + | |||
| + | : //Think of it as an [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:o:os|operating system]] for marketplaces, data-sharing networks, micro-currencies, and decentralized digital communities. It has the potential to vastly reduce the cost and complexity of getting things done in the real world.// | ||
| + | |||
| + | : //Only an Open Source, collaborative software development approach can ensure the transparency, longevity, [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:i:interoperability|interoperability]] and support required to bring blockchain technologies forward to mainstream commercial adoption. That is what Hyperledger is about – communities of software developers building blockchain frameworks and platforms.// | ||
| + | |||
| + | : //Hyperledger launched in 2016 with a technical and organizational governance structure and 30 founding corporate members. Initially, the Hyperledger Technical Steering Committee welcomed two business blockchain framework codebases into incubation: Hyperledger Fabric, a codebase combining work by Digital Asset, libconsensus from Blockstream and OpenBlockchain from IBM; and Hyperledger Sawtooth, developed at Intel’s incubation group.// | ||
