What benefits do blockchain provide in business-to-business collaborations?

A distributed ledger (DLT) based on cryptographic protocols, driven by network consensus, and that allows data to be transmitted and stored in a peer-to-peer (P2P) fashion creates the transfer of data/assets/value between two parties, while eliminating the need to rely on a third party to facilitate the said transfer.

What property of a blockchain does the name "Permissionless" refer to?

Decentralization: no central entity has the authority to edit the ledger, shut down the network, or change its protocols. It allows anyone to add transactions, run a node, and participate in the development of the network.

What are 3 examples of permissionless blockchains?

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ontology

Who are allowed to join a permissioned blockchain network?

Only those authorized by the central governing body can join.

Why do you think permissioned blockchain networks are preferred by many companies?

  • Internal governance leverages the power of the network for the benefit of their own uses.
  • It keeps transactions securely and privately recorded.
  • Only approved people or computer entities have the possibility of running nodes on the network, validating transaction blocks, issuing transactions, executing smart contracts, or reading the transaction history.
  • Cost effective.
  • Compliant with rules and regulations.

    blockchain networks allow for increased trust between parties, and instant access to relevant, authentic information.

  2. What property of a blockchain does the name “Permissionless” refer to?

    DOGE

  4. Who are allowed to join a permissioned blockchain network?
    Anyone that the central entity decides to let in.

  5. Why do you think permissioned blockchain networks are preferred by many companies?
    Because they have sensitive and private information about their customers that shouldnt be displayed to the whole public and only to certain entities. A permissioned blockchain is much faster since their are only a few player that are allowed to mine.

    Parties who are allowed, who pass the KYC for Ripple as example, and are eligable by judegement of the particular network.
  5. Why do you think permissioned blockchain networks are preferred by many companies?
    One thing is to say that ‘our software is open source’. It is a completely different situation if someone develops ‘cryptokitties’ on a company’s, like MasterCard for example, premissionless newtork… So if a company wants their network to behave in a predictable manner they do have to be in control and we do not hear that existing businesses would say ‘our blockchain network is premissionless’… And then there is the limited supply thing, as a company you might want ot keep some pritning/inflation capabilities.

  1. Who are allowed to join a permissioned blockchain network?
  • Depending on the central/consortium authority’s decision, could be anyone/company participating in the process that the blockchain or smart contract addresses/digitizes. The party must be involved by read or append-to action to the blockchain/ecosystem.
  1. Why do you think permissioned blockchain networks are preferred by many companies?
  • B2B transactions are more complex than B2C so authority over governance/more control is needed
  • Pre-existing contractual/relationship/ecosystem rules they make on top of legal frameworks
    (contract addendums or be it internal accounting processes)
    This dictates not only advanced smart-contracts but also who participates, when.
