"Announced today at BlockchainExpo. Our CTO, Colin Paterson has been elected the Chair of @Hyperledger Quilt to help create an interoperability stack. We’re integrating Overledger’s API and SDK into Quilt to support multi-chain interoperability use cases" - Tweet


Hyperledger is the biggest Enterprise DLT Ecosystem, with half of Forbes 50 Companies using Hyperledger!


So what is Quilt? Quilt is the "Interoperability Stack" within the Hyperledger Ecosystem. However, they were only able to achieve basic atomic swaps. The Quilt team met with the Quant team a few weeks ago.


Now, the CTO of Quant Network - Colin Paterson - has been elected as the Chair of Hyperledger Quilt. The team announced they will be integrating Overledger into the Quilt framework, essentially restructuring Quilt to utilise Overledger.


This will allow any of the current Hyperledger users and future clients to access the new Quilt stack (Overledger) and interconnect their platforms with other DLT; Corda, Quorum etc. This news is freaking huge! Imagine the traffic running through the Overledger system from this accomplishment, essentially cementing themselves as the Interoperability standard for Enterprise...


Oh and? Quant is sitting at 160 on CMC. :') These guys are making real moves - Enterprise "adoption" is here.



That's much bigger than most realize. I believe even in the community it's not totally clear what it means.

Couldn't agree more mate. People are sleeping on this news. Hyperledger ELECTED the Quant CTO to oversee Quilt, and then decided to let them integrate OVERLEDGER to just entirely replace it.

.... It seems the biggest Enterprise DLT ecosystem has already chosen the standard for interoperability?? .. Smiley Hmm


Gilbert Verdien just said this about Quant and Hyperledgers Quilt during an AMA on Telegram:

"Overledger is going to enable universal interoperability for Quilt. The past approach to interoperability was quite limited to ILP between RIpple and BTC and was a very specific use case. We're integrating Overledger's API and SDK to be the front gateways for Quilt to allow for Enterprise and Developers to be able to use different blockchains, protocols, taxonomies with ease to bring mass adoption and universal interoperability. This allows Overledger to widely support all the different use cases demanded by clients, enterprise and developers and bring mass usage of Overledger and Quilt to a broader market."
