Zilliqa Keynote: Next-Gen Scalable Blockchain

About the project:

Zilliqa is a new public blockchain developed by a group of computer scientists, engineers, and financial service veterans. It brings the theory of sharding to practice with its novel protocol that increases transaction rates as its network expands. The platform is tailored towards enabling secure data-driven decentralized apps, designed to meet the scaling requirements of applications in areas such as financial services and digital marketing. Zilliqa has been under research and development for two years. It has powered several ground-breaking deployments commercially to date.

Outline of the talk:

• Brief intro of the background of the project
