Bitcoin Garden: Biotron Partners With SophiaTX
https://bitcoingarden.org/biotron-partners-with-sophiatx/Biotron is a personal data analytics platform that uses blockchain for two main tasks within its ecosystem. To facilitate transactions of data and of their proprietary BTRN token, and to host smart contracts between data providers (our users) and data customers.
To reduce the significant investment in infrastructure Biotron decided to seek a partnership with an existing blockchain solution. The sheer volume of transactions and smart contracts (required to provide customers with Biotrons analytics products) meant that solutions such as Ethereum, Multichain, Waves, and Ark, would not be sufficient. Of these blockchains, only Ethereum is capable of handling smart contracts in limited amounts. However, their transactions are expensive and the blockchain is notoriously slow.
When deciding on a blockchain, we needed to think about how our analytics could be easily assimilated into an organisations existing ecosystem too. Pavol Magic, CEO
Biotron sought a partner with an organisation that was just as business focussed as their data analytics solution. One that understands how they are using analytics to drive business decision making; and in turn, how businesses will use those analytics. Naturally, the solution had to have all the features required technically and be robust enough to handle potentially hundreds of thousands of micro-transactions quickly. Fortunately, Biotron found both of these in one place. After going through an extensive amount of consulting and exhaustive due diligence process, they are pleased to reveal that will be using a blockchain platform provided by SophiaTX....SophiaTX is a great project... and the platform is appropriate for the kind of work Biotron is looking to execute. So, their marketing guy leaving SophiaTX to join Biotron is a good thing after all.
