  Peppermint Chain

  Nov 2017 - May 2018

  Co-Founder

  www.peppermintchain.comBlockchain is a promising technology and although it has gained momentum as a means for value transfers for payments, the concept holds promises beyond money exchange. The technology can be applied to practically all data activity and business transactions.Enterprises have stayed on the fence and although blockchain technology has been embraced by early adopters, the majority pragmatic businesses are still waiting for a blockchain solution that addresses their concerns mostly about privacy, scalability and steep skills learning curve.Peppermint Chain is open, thus staying true to the basic concepts of the blockchain but maintains privacy and confidentiality without forcing the organization to create or participate in a consortium. Moreover, Peppermintchain extracts the skillset dependency by allowing applications and their constituent contracts to be written in Java along with providing a relational interface to interact with the blockchain data thus any company can reuse their current development and analytical skill set to create business specific implementations.
