    They stay in control of the blockchain and rules. Governance is decided then by the members of the business network, not by governance-token holders, like it would be on a public blockchain.
    In many cases transactions and data is sensible, so there is no need for transparency.

5. Why do you think permissioned blockchain networks are preferred by many companies?
Because they want to enjoy the advantages of using blockchain (say, auditable and transparent data), without the risk of leaking their private, sensitive data to their competitors. We can also consider that they have to comply with different rules of data protection from regulators, and their internal policies on data access.

  • true data: provides a ledger that indisputably displays transactions, allowing for more authentic data management.
  • equal access: the ledger can be read by all parties involved (if chosen to), allowing less trust to be needed in business collaborations.
  • protection: Since the information is distributed, it makes it less likely to be hit by cyber attacks, thus protecting business information.
  1. What property of a blockchain does the name “Permissionless” refer to?
    “Permissionless” refers to the open access of a blockchain. If a blockchain is permissionless, that means any node/user and read and write upon the blockchain.

  • Bitcoin
  • Ethereum
  • Litecoin
  1. Who are allowed to join a permissioned blockchain network?
  • Participants who are granted access by the owner(s) of the blcockchain.
  1. Why do you think permissioned blockchain networks are preferred by many companies?
  • It keeps company secrets privy to approved parties, rather than be accessed by everyone. For example, medical records would be better formatted in a permissioned blockchain, rather than a permissionless one for patient confidentiality. Permissioned blockchains are also more efficient and manageable than a permissionless one, at the cost of security.
