How Does BaaS (Blockchain as a Service) Work? I hear that all biggies (MS, IBM, Amazon etc) are jumping in with their own BaaS offerings. But I'm puzzled - if these providers each maintain their own blockchain, how can a transaction involving entities which exist in different blockchains, succeed? |
(Disclaimer: This comment hypothetically assumes that blockchain blockchain blockchain mania actually works.)
If the a blockchain is specific to a transaction type, does it mean all providers will use the same copy of the blockchain for that transaction type (shipping type etc)? But in that case, since blockchain doesn't belong to anyone, the BaaS providers would be similar to mining pools. Isn't it?
