(2018-12-20) Ethereum Startup Parity Launches Diy Blockchain Tool Substrate Coindesk

Ethereum Startup Parity Launches DIY Blockchain Tool Substrate. Parity Technologies has launched Substrate, a tool that lets users create customized blockchains for decentralized applications.

the open-source tech was designed to be “as generic as possible” to allow flexibility when designing blockchains. The included API also lets users create their own consensus mechanism or they can utilize “most” existing algorithms.

Substrate is integrated with the firm’s blockchain interoperability protocol Polkadot and is written in the programming language Rust, while a JavaScript implementation can run in web browsers.

you can do just enough that you do have a domain-specific chain, that has its own parameterization, and its own features that allow you to get a particular job done.”
