Seems like a promising project. Is anyone able to verify team? And why you guys need patent in open source space?
Can someone please respond to this question. Hyperledger protocol is open source so why the need for patents?
If I'm not mistaken, the platform itself and its many processes are being patented to prevent any future issues, Hyperledger protocol is only a part of that platform.
Yes, you can think of it as a software suite like MS Office and they have patented it so that no competitor can just copy&paste it.
