In addition to the integration in the BRD consumer wallet, Hedera’s network data will be supported in BRD’s recently launched enterprise-grade blockchain data integration platform Blockset, which powers the BRD consumer wallet. Already a leading enterprise blockchain service, Blockset provides a suite of ready-to-use tools that facilitate the building of cost-efficient blockchain applications and which eliminate barriers to entry. Hedera’s integration into Blockset will enable read and write functionality, which means companies are not only able to read data but also transact on-chain through Blockset’s API.
Commenting on the announcement, Adam Traidman, CEO of BRD, said, “This relationship between BRD and Hedera is built upon a confluence of a shared ambition to accelerate enterprise adoption of decentralized technologies, and represents another milestone moment in our 2020 highlight reel. Hedera already supports many tangible use-cases today and its Governing Council comprises leading enterprises across a variety of industry verticals. Integrating Hedera into our Blockset product not only showcases Hedera’s technology to enterprises around the world, but it also enhances the value proposition of the Blockset product more broadly.”
