The blockchain accelerator – developed on IBM Blockchain Platform by Sweden-based software house BlueBarricade Blockchain & AI Technology AB – has achieved new performance levels in the global market for high-speed enterprise blockchain. Performance tests have been conducted with the support of HCL and IBM.
Global demands on the high-speed enterprise blockchain market are growing. Research and advisory company Gartner made predictions that blockchain technology will create business values at a level of 3.1 trillion USD by the year 2030.
