Quant Overledger Whitepaper Release (alpha), 31 January 2018 Gilbert Verdian, Paolo Tasca, Colin Paterson, Gaetano Mondelli Abstract The traditional Internet architecture hasn t yet achieved its vision of an open, trusted and secure network. The technology of distributed ledger technologies (DLT) and their broad range of applications across finance, healthcare, supply-chain and many other sectors, is an opportunity for the Internet to adapt and honour what was originally envisaged, and reach its potential as a decentralised network of networks. While providing a broad range of benefits, the fast-paced environment of DLTs lack seamless inter-communicability, internally among ledgers, and externally with existing networks. This limitation forces distributed applications to be single-ledger-dependent, limited to be only executed on a single ledger.
Table 1: Comparison among projects aiming to increase intercommunication between DLTs. In the Interoperability section below, we explain the convention used in this table.
