Blockchain computing will make your business more competitive than Cloud computing. Do you believe me? If so, let me take you on a journey to the future. In web3, decentralized global organizations transact assets and agreements on universal settlement layers. Systems for automating and transacting assets through Front-Office, Middle-Office and Back-Office Applications are networked, orchestrated … Continue reading Web3: Beyond Cloud Computing
Serverless Containerization Kubernetes and KNative are driving sequential, scalable and containerized build systems scoped within pods for state sharing. Knative is a set of open-source components and platform level custom APIs installed on Kubernetes. In the next few minutes I will walk through how to containerize a node.js or spring boot application, deploy it to Google … Continue reading Serverless Containerization
General information on the topic of ZKPs, not necessarily structured but should be ongoing article as I continue to learn about this technology. These are just notes specifically from meetup on ZKPs. Honest computation through Zero Knowledge Proofs is a set of steps. It is this complex math and application of the cryptographic primitives that … Continue reading On ZKPs, STARKS, SNARKS
This year went by extremely fast. I learned a ton about starting a business, traveled around the world, built on new blockchain protocols, went and saw the future and came back to work on that which I believe shaped it in the present. There is the confluence of technology that is happening before our eyes, … Continue reading 2019
The next-generation of interoperable blockchain frameworks are being built upon: UTXO Transaction Models / State Transitions Proof-of-Authority (POA) / Proof-of-Stake(POS) Aura / Avalanche / Next-gen BFT Consensus Mechanisms SNARGS / Privacy Computation / Zero Knowledge Proofs Formally Verifiable Contracts and Agents Committees / Validator Sets / Routings / Attestations / Digital Jury Sharded sets of … Continue reading Interoperability Protocols
Corda is a global network of nodes for enterprise-grade, real-time transactions and asset workflows. It is a platform for developing the next-generation of enterprise software where state and processes can be shared and uniform across multiple trusted entities leading to operational efficiency, speed and better customer experiences. Last week I attended CordaCon in London and … Continue reading Corda: Enterprise Business Networks
The Enterprise Blockchain Computing market is growing rapidly with Fortune 500 companies forming their internal teams to develop blockchain applications that create separation in their respective industries. Yes, there is a difference between protocols, that is clear. Being directly worked or incentivized into a specific protocol or vendor is not advantageous to the enterprise customer. … Continue reading Multi-Protocol Enterprise Blockchain Computing
The consensus from the 2018 hackathon was: there are a number of emerging blockchain technology platforms that are focused not on the protocol level but on creating additions to the base protocols these are workbenches, platform tooling, application environments There was a number of different hacks that were built over the weekend focusing on … Continue reading Consensus 2018 Hackathon
The means of developing replicated state machines. Decentralized and permissionless state replication as well as distributed application specific state replication are defining the next era of computing. Replication of data on distributed systems using leaders and workers, distributed micro-services and containers, peer-to-peer blockchain protocols, UTXOs, and digitally enforceable agreements and agents. Blockchain is the next … Continue reading Means of State Replication
There is a shift that is happening; it is rooted in the rapid expansion of decentralized cryptographic protocols. Public private key pairs are becoming common use for securing/storing digital assets, providing proof, determining truth. Where our data lives, who owns the data, and who can that change data are all questions that are being asked. … Continue reading 2018
