Hyundai subsidiary and CasperLabs will create a blockchain based on PoS

Hyundai-supported blockchain company HDAC Technology has entered into a strategic partnership with CasperLabs for joint research.

Developments within the framework of cooperation will be aimed at creating mechanisms for consensus and smooth integration between the blockchains of HDAC and CasperLabs. The companies signed a memorandum of understanding, which was the first step towards further cooperation.

The goal of cooperation is to ensure scaling without compromising decentralization, which, according to Mrinal Manohar, CEO of the parent company Casper Labs ADAPtive Holdings, is very important for mass implementation.

“Many implementations are accompanied by a compromise in the area of decentralization, but we strive to ensure complete decentralization along with controlled access to the platform,” he said.

Initially, the partnership will focus on the joint development of technologies for consensus mechanisms. HDAC, the issuer of the Hyundai-DAC token, a company established in early 2017 by the grandson of the founder of the Hyundai Group, wants to create the next generation IoT systems. Currently, HDAC has its own blockchain based on the proof of work.
