The largest automobile Concern Daimler AG, together with the German commercial bank Landesbank Baden-Württemberg (LBBW), completed the test blockchain-project, issuing corporate bonds for 100 million euro within the framework. The pilot project also involved the banks of Esslingen-Nürtingen, Ludwigsburg and Ostalb. All transactions within the framework of the test carried out using blockchain technology and protected by cryptography. The bond redemption period is 1 year.
"Blockchain is without doubt a very promising technology, but not mature enough. Now, it is necessary, together with like-minded people, to develop this technology, accumulate knowledge and experience, and actively share them, "said Jan Brecht, Daimler's director of investments.
