Private blockchain platform MultiChain from Coin Sciences Ltd. has announced the first beta release of MultiChain 1.0 for Linux and Windows. It also announced the addition of 14 companies to the MultiChain Platform Partner Program, bringing the total number to 27.
The MultiChain Platform Partner Program is a new collaboration with Seal Software. The group’s new members include three multinational consulting companies: Boston Consulting Group, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, and Worldline. Apart from these, eleven smaller companies including Auxesis Group, Crossword Cybersecurity, Cryptologic, Enuke Software, Enuma Technologies, InfoCorp Technologies, among others have also joined the MultiChain Platform Partner Program.
Coin Sciences also announced a new partnership with Seal Software in order to integrate MultiChain as a key component of its platform. This is done by combining Seal’s machine learning framework for intelligent contracts with MultiChain’s advanced streams functionality.
“Since launching the platform partner program in October, dozens of companies have reached out to us. Many had already built projects for their customers on MultiChain and welcomed the opportunity to create a formal relationship. Others, such as Seal Software and Wolfram Research, sought to integrate MultiChain into their software platforms to enable peer-to-peer data sharing and collaboration. With version 1.0 of MultiChain now entering beta, we look forward to continued cooperation with all our partners, helping them leverage MultiChain for their customers’ needs.” Dr. Gideon Greenspan, CEO, and Founder of Coin Sciences said.
The MultiChain beta release represents the culmination of more than 2 years of development. During the beta period, there will be additional testing and optimization with the final version 1.0 release due in summer 2017.
“Joining the MultiChain Platform Partner Program underpins our commitment to maintaining a deep understanding of the different blockchain fabrics available, helping us advise our clients on electing the right solution. Joining this program offers us early access to releases and priority access to their internal engineering team and we look forward to working with Coin Sciences more closely in the future,” Seamus Cushley, Director of the PwC EMEA Blockchain team, mentioned.
