Hyperledger Ursa is the latest project to be accepted by Hyperledger’s Technical Steering Committee. This modular, flexible cryptography library is intended for—but not limited to—use by other projects in Hyperledger. We talked to Hart Montgomery, Hyperledger Ursa maintainer about the goals of this project, its two modules, future and more.

Still not sure about blockchain? Robert van Mölken explores the basics of distributed ledger technologies and shows how they can be a solid foundation for future success. Here, we dive deeper into the architectural intricacies that make up blockchain.

When it comes to blockchain, opinions regarding its journey to the mainstream are divided. However, for developers, this is not necessarily the most important aspect of this technology. We caught up with Ingo Rammer, co-founder & managing director of Thinktecture AG at Blockchain Technology Conference 2018 to discuss the shortcomings of current blockchain infrastructures, the most common pitfalls developers fall into and more.

While blockchain’s usefulness is profound, it’s not the solution to everything — it cannot solve every problem across every industry in all parts of the world — and failing to understand this usually sets people up for failure. We caught up with Dr. Byung Ik Ahn, CEO of Fantom Foundation to chat about blockchain’s evolution, potential solutions to its growing pains, Fantom’s goals and more.

Because there are so many blockchain solutions out there, it’s important to identify the problem you’re trying to solve and if the solution you have chosen can facilitate that. If you make the right choices, blockchain is going to help you, otherwise, like any technology, it’s going to be a nightmare for you to manage. We talked to Vinita Rathi, CEO & Founder of Systango about the shortcomings of current blockchain infrastructures, the dos and don’ts of creating an enterprise blockchain solution and more.

Blockchain is on everyone’s lips these days but, as we learned during the recent Blockchain Technology Conference, before choosing blockchain, you have to ask yourself one question: Do I really need it? We caught up with Dan Middleton, chair of the Hyperledger Technical Steering Committee to discuss blockchain’s technical challenges, the dos and don’ts and what fascinates him about this technology.

Blockchain is on its way to becoming a mainstream technology. However, the problem is that we are so focused on the creation of a blockchain application that we completely ignore the importance of how blockchain-based applications should look like when presented to the consumer. Michał Zieliński sets the record straight.

The Blockchain Technology Conference has come to an end but now’s the perfect time for an overview of the most important takeaways. We’ve gathered enough intel to keep our minds well-fed until the next blockchain-related conference so come get your piping hot takeaways and explore our notes in bite-sized pieces.

When it comes to blockchain technology, there are a lot of bad habits we have to unlearn. Let’s put our best foot forward! Livestream a session from the Blockchain Technology Conference in Berlin about blockchain misconceptions and common pitfalls.

Can blockchain transform the world? Before we can answer this question, we need to understand what this technology can and can’t do, what it is and what it isn’t. Therefore, we have to go back to basics and explore the fundamentals in order to eliminate all misconceptions about blockchain. This series is meant to clear the air by answering the most fundamental questions.

How can two of the most revolutionary concepts help one another? In this article, Ankit Patel discusses the merits of using AI alongside of blockchain for better results and better security.

Cryptocurrency may have gotten all the buzz last year, but the underlying technology is what we should really be talking about. In this article, Blockchain Technology Conference speaker Vinita Rathi explores why blockchain and distributed ledger technology platforms deserve our attention.

The Blockchain Technology Conference has just begun but we want to make sure you’re up-to-date with all the announcements and statements. Come get your piping hot takeaways and explore our notes in bite-sized pieces.
