Newslink : The Blockchain Milestone You May Have Missed
Amidst the fanfare of the release of R3’s Corda distributed ledger code, another milestone slipped by almost unnoticed – Hyperledger surpassed 100 members.

Hyperledger was created a year ago as a unifying “umbrella” for enterprise blockchain open-source development. Among the participants are blockchain companies (including R3), financial institutions and tech giants.
