Algorand and Flipside Crypto have partnered to provide business intelligence on DApp usage so that developers can have more meaningful data as the build in the borderless economy.

There is a gap between what the blockchain aspires to be, and what is the technology implemented, at least until today. He is convinced of this Silvio Micali, professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Boston and winner of the Turing Prize , the 'Nobel Prize for Informatics'. "I immediately do disclosure," he says ironically as he tells Fortune Italy how his blockchain, Algorand, would be able to overcome the limits of what has been developed to date.

There are numerous blockchain project teams attempting to address the blockchain trilemma, and the Turing Award winning team Algorand is one promising candidate. We had the pleasure to speak with Jing Chen, Chief Scientist of Algorand, on how Algorand attempts to solve blockchain trilemma with its Byzantine agreement.

Algorand, PoS permissionless blockchain network, takes a promising approach to decentralization shedding a spotlight on an area where so many other networks have failed.

Syncsort and Algorand partner to create high value solutions for blockchain that meet enterprise data requirements and help increase the auditability and visibility of their transactional systems.

MIT Professor Silvio Micali‘s Algorand project, via the Algorand Foundation, will hold its first in a series of Dutch Auctions out of Singapore on June 19th, 2019. These auctions will allow Algos, the native tokens of the Algorand platform, to enter circulation via a mechanism where the market determines the fair price. This inaugural auction also marks the launch of the Algorand network.
