BSV Blockchain Global Advisory Council Formed with Senior Industry Leaders to Support BSV Adoption
The BSV blockchain’s Switzerland-based industry association announces the formation of a BSV Blockchain Global Advisory Council. The Council brings together senior professionals and thought leaders from diverse industries who support the growth of blockchain technology; while they may be blockchain-agnostic, Council members will advise on the education and adoption of BSV at enterprise, government and academic levels.
The BSV blockchain is an enterprise-grade distributed data network for big business and government-scale applications. Operating with a data protocol that works effectively with IPv6 (the latest Internet protocol), the BSV network scales unbounded to support high volumes of data and payment transactions at minimal cost – demonstrating throughput of 50,000 to 100,000 transactions per second with upcoming node software and median transaction fees that are a small fraction of a U.S. cent. From a technical perspective, BSV offers micropayment, smart contract, tokenisation, IoT, computation and more data functionalities.
