Smart contracts
Business rules can be executed by smart contracts, with corrections recorded as new transactions that preserve the history.
Enterprise solutions
Verifiable processes for organizations that need shared trust.
The Blockchain RDE is being designed as a recording, validation and audit layer for companies, contracts, data and operational events.
Use cases
Planned applications, with no financial or operational promise.
Document integrity
Documents stay stored off-chain. Their hash can be recorded on-chain to support integrity checks, timestamping and audit.
See the technical guideCertificate and license records
Technical evidence to look up and follow documents issued by the responsible organizations.
Enterprise digital records
Modeling of records and events for lookup, traceability and integration between systems.
Integration with financial systems
Possible integration of records and events with external financial systems, depending on the scope of each project.
Audit and traceability
Histories, hashes and timestamps can support internal and external audits and integrations between partners.
Freight and delivery tracking
Planned use case to record pickup, transport, receipt and proof-of-delivery events, through integration with the responsible systems.
By design
Privacy and verifiability do not need to live in the same place.
The RDE approach separates sensitive business data from cryptographic evidence. What goes onto the blockchain should be the record needed for verification, not the full content of private documents.
Mandatory principle
Off-chain documents with an on-chain hash. Business content stays off the chain, while the technical evidence can be used for integrity, timestamping and audit.
