[kictanet] Kenya BlockChain working Group

[Tony White]

A couple of things in today's news which are interesting:

"IBM (IBM.N) said on Friday it completed a pilot project with Chinese
credit card company China UnionPay that will facilitate the sharing of
loyalty bonus points among banks using block chain technology."

Which refers also to:

"The Hyperledger Project is a collaborative effort created to advance
blockchain technology by identifying and addressing important features
for a cross-industry open standard for distributed ledgers that can
transform the way business transactions are conducted globally."

https://www.hyperledger.org/

I hope the meeting was a success, and I am eagerly awaiting the 'minutes' ;)

Cheers,
Tony
