MICROSOFT WINS CRUCIAL BLOCKCHAIN PATENT!

 


Microsoft's subsidiary Microsoft Technology Licensing has received patent approval from the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)

The tech company filed a patent for the blockchain system in February 2019. Microsoft describes this system as a ledger-independent service. This is software that enables both individuals and organizations to create and manage tokens on various distributed ledger networks and platforms.

The platforms included in the patent application are Ethereum, R3 Corda, Chain Core, Hyperledger Fabric (supported by IBM), and Quorum Q3 (JP Morgan).

Multiple token templates

The advanced system is also described as a platform that can provide users with one or more token templates, each of these templates corresponding to a type of physical or digital asset.

It also serves as a single interface for managing the life cycle of tokens across different blockchains, allowing developers to write code for the transaction and management of tokens in a more efficient way.

The authors of the patent said that the blockchain-based token management system is certainly a more efficient tool for operations associated with crossing ledger boundaries.

Microsoft's blockchain venture

Just like other tech giants, Microsoft has increased its interest in blockchain technology over the years, which is evident from the projects it has initiated. In fact, the recent patent win isn't the first attempt to apply for a patent on a blockchain project.

Over the years, Microsoft has diligently filed patents for technologies to be used in the crypto industry. That means the company is aiming for a leadership role in the fast-growing market, with some analysts even saying it wants to replicate its massive success in the software market from back in the cryptocurrency industry.

Cardano price forecast – price breaks out! Are we near $1.5 soon?

 In our last Cardano price prediction , we wrote that the price could break out soon. The reason for this was a symmetrical triangle. This triangle was performed after the crash, so we expected the price to break down. But now the course has broken out of the triangle in a bullish manner. But how far could the course rise or what is the goal? Today we will explain to you about the Cardano course ! Cardano price broke out of the triangle and was able to rally to the $1.19 resistance. We tested this resistance, and a short time later the price was sold off. The triangle's target was around $1.23, so we now believe the price has completed the target. As a result, we no longer expect a further increase. Instead, the price could now descend and possibly form new lows. If the price breaks the $1.19 resistance, the price could rally to around $1.5. There is the next resistance where the Cardano price could bounce. If Cardano price fails to break the $1.19 resistance, we would expect the p...

Cardano founder doubts Bitcoin's future as world reserve currency

  Cardano's founder doesn't believe Bitcoin has what it takes to become the world's leading currency. Charles Hoskinson stated in a recent interview that he didn't think Bitcoin would become the world reserve currency. According to the founder of Cardano, a cryptocurrency with smart contract features would become the global reserve currency. Hoskinson believes Cardano or Ethereum would become the world reserve currency. A global reserve currency must offer services like smart contracts, metadata standards, and improved throughput that complete enormous transactions per second. According to the Cardano founder , the scarcity of Bitcoin is due to the high cost of production: "If you make paintings, one of which you have to paint by hand and the other by machine, and both look the same and the demand for both is the same, then the effort for one is a thousand times greater than for the other." Hoskinson spoke about Bitcoin's massive energy consumption, addin...
