A blockchain project developed by several Japanese firms including by startup Soramitsu and IT giant Hitachi has been accepted into the Hyperledger blockchain initiative. Developed by Hyperledger member and blockchain startup Soramitsu, Iroha was first unveiled during a meeting of the project’s Technical Steering Committee last month. Iroha is being pitched as both a supplement to other Hyperledger-tied infrastructure projects like IBM’s Fabric (on which it is based) and Intel’s Sawtooth Lake. At the same time, Soramitsu is positioning Iroha as a means to encourage the development of....
The multinational tech corporation Intel, the largest semiconductor chip manufacturer, is currently keen on blockchain technology. The Santa Clara, California-based company, announced its latest initiative called “Sawtooth Lake” this April alongside a Hyperledger technical discussion meeting. The firm intends to use the platform for building, launching, and operating distributed ledger environments. Intel says that this particular protocol provides an immutable digital record of asset ownership “without a central authority.” Is Intel’s Sawtooth Cutting Edge Technology? Since being founded....

The Linux Foundation-led Hyperledger initiative has added a new blockchain deployment tool to its growing pool of projects. Dubbed ‘Cello’, the project is intended to establish a means for “creating, managing, and terminating blockchains”, Hyperledger said this week. Cello will ultimately come to serve as a support mechanism for other projects included under the Hyperledger umbrella, including Fabric, Iroha, and Sawtooth Lake, among others. Those behind the project say they hope it spurs partnerships with others working within the Hyperledger ecosystem. Baohua Yang, who first proposed....
