Private, Permissioned, Business Blockchains

This course discusses the differences and details of private, permissioned blockchain (BC) technology, in contrast with the better known (but less used in business applications) public blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum.  Private blockchains have a much faster consensus methodology and can process many orders of magnitude more transactions than public blockchains.

This course illustrates some of the current applications of BC for business operations and its use for safely sharing information with partners.
