Open Ledger by...IBM

[xeroc]

I am already actively in talks with IBM and the hyperledger project .. the IBM proposal is the best that I have seen so far .. but the whole hyperledger initiative is still in its early stages ..

@bytemaster Link for IBM Hyperledger work https://github.com/openblockchain
Please make quick look on it.

The current performance goal for OBC is to achieve 100,000 transactions per second in a standard production environment of approximately 15 validating nodes running in close proximity.

The initial OBC release package will offer three consensus implementations for users to select from: 1) No-op (consensus ignored); 2) Classic PBFT; and 3) SIEVE (an enhanced version of classic PBFT).

Does OBC have native currency?
No. However, if you really need a native currency for your chain network, you can develop your own native currency with chaincode.

Looks like a strong competitor to Graphene toolkit if CNX wants to push Graphene to potential private chain owners.

Can we use bitshares dex to trade the IBM stock as a derivative of the real IBM stock? Something like what DACx was doing..and do we know why they stopped doing it? Or can we create a market pegged asset with feed for IBM stocks?

If that was possible I would consider to take that bet since in the end of the day it will be centralized blockchains (IBM, etc..) vs. decentralized blockchains and startups. So it would be a hedging.. :)

Looks like they gave up on the OpenLedger name and went with Hyperledger instead.  Don't mess with Bitshares/OpenLedger!

As long as it contains ledger in the name to sound cool

Thanks for the up-votes - coindesk also allowed the link to openledger.info  :)

I'd say its just the right time to rename BitShares as openledger, this is a great publicity opportunity , we should not miss one. I hope Ronny has the trademark registered.

If people who are looking for information about open ledger project by Linux Foundation will see shrill references to openledger.info and obits everywhere, they will be just pissed off.
