We've got a fantastic line up for our April Virtual EEA Meetup and can't wait to see you there!
We've changed the timing for this month's event to welcome our speakers from Australia and Singapore.
Schedule
8am - Intro and welcome from Conor Svensson
8.15am - Peter Robinson, Technical Director and Applied Cryptographer at ConsenSys presents "General Purpose Atomic Crosschain Transactions (GPACT)".
The General Purpose Atomic Crosschain Transaction protocol allows composable programming across multiple Ethereum blockchains. It allows for inter-contract and inter-blockchain function calls that are both synchronous and atomic: if one part fails, the whole call graph of function calls is rolled back. The protocol operates on existing Ethereum blockchains without modification. It works for both public permissioned and consortium blockchains. Additionally, the protocol is expected to work across heterogeneous blockchains other than Ethereum.
