As a digital currency-agnostic platform that enables the global interoperability of multiple blockchains, Wanchain will be the financial back-end powering an array of industry-specific blockchains known as INDUSTRTYChains. These INDUSTRYChains will connect to the Wanchain main-chain using Wanchain’s cross-chain technology. Initial INDUSTRYChains to be supported by WANLab include the travel, gaming, and media industries. Wanchain will provide further details about these projects as well as their new ‘INDUSTRYChain’ infrastructure later in the year.

WANLab cultivates the rapidly growing Wanchain ecosystem with highly-vetted and high-potential projects across the global blockchain realm.

  • Hands-on advisory to the full spectrum of business needs including strategy, legal and tokenomics

  • Increased exposure and partnership opportunities with collaborators in the Wanchain ecosystem

“It’s not enough to build a platform and hope others will build on top of it,” said Byington. “The future of finance is at stake, and we don’t have time to wait for adoption and risk low-quality applications in our ecosystem. Wanchain has one of the most experienced teams in blockchain, and we are proud to support the best startups to navigate uncharted waters, and thrive.”
