Integrating blockchain without a complete system overhaul

Start with small, dedicated services to add blockchain capabilities to existing web2 architectures instead of attempting a full rewrite.

#2about 3 minutes

Using blockchain for tamper-proof data timestamping

Store a hash of your data on the blockchain to create a cost-effective, tamper-proof log for independent verification.

#3about 3 minutes

Creating a shared source of truth with data aggregation

Use the blockchain as a trusted data layer for multiple parties to share and synchronize event updates in real-time.

Representing real-world assets as digital tokens

Create a digital twin of a physical or digital asset on the blockchain to enable easier trading and fractional ownership.

#5about 2 minutes

Enforcing business logic with smart contract rules

Add custom rules like transfer restrictions, time-based locks, or multi-party consent to tokenized assets using smart contracts.

#6about 2 minutes

Integrating blockchain services into modern architectures

Isolate blockchain logic into dedicated services that can be integrated into microservices or event-driven systems.

#7about 7 minutes

Best practices for building blockchain integrations

Use familiar SDKs, optimistic UI patterns, and secure key management to create a seamless and robust user experience.
