The blockchain to fix all blockchains

Abstract

The blockchain revolution is struggling. The much-vaunted technology behind bitcoin promises to enable trusted transactions without intermediaries. One problem is that there is no longer a single blockchain: the past few years have seen an explosion of different proprietary versions. Now a London start-up is adding yet another to the pile--but unlike its predecessors, this one is meant to connect them all. The creators of this meta-blockchain think it could restart the blockchain revolution.
