* DataDex: Massive indexing of information for millions of available data sets.

SciDex Protocol has begun to serve the first commercial partners, compiling and verifying the generation of new Smart Contracts (RASC), including Google Cloud, TechData, Origin Protocol.

5. MXC

MXC has completed the world tour of 11 stations. The team has expanded in Berlin and maintained a good relationship with the local government. Jeff, MXC Foundation Growth Manager, shared the vision of MXC at the blockchain brunch held by Factory Berlin. There are about 100 participants who discussed IoT applications that could change Berlin startups and businesses. MXC brings a new generation of low-power wide-area networks that combine superior IoT systems to drive data transactions between “objects” and benefit from enhanced network coverage.

6. Udap

Udap released Harvest Wallet, an ERC721 and Udap Singular Style Asset Wallet. Harvest Wallet supports both ERC20 and ERC721 token standards. Rather than simply recording digital currencies, it can manage business-level certified assets such as certificates, fair letters, warehouse receipts, purchase receipts, and other tangible assets. Its powerful features also include the recording of intangible assets such as game virtual equipment, personal credit, and reputation. Second, the wallet allows individuals to publish their own encrypted assets, easily implement asset-winding capabilities, and become a traffic entry for encrypted assets. Finally, the wallet also has plug-in capabilities. This is an important entry point for users to manage their assets. It will help more developers to use the plug-in function based on Harvest Wallet. Like the WeChat applet, when Tencent opens the API port for a developer, Wechat applet functions of their own can be realized on the basis of WeChat.

2. New Partners

LianAn

On August 27, QuarkChain launched an in-depth strategic partnership with Chengdu LianAn Technology. As the only blockchain security company for distributed strategic investment, Chengdu LianAn Technology has been the contract audit company designated by the exchanges such as Huobi, OKEx, KuCoin and LBank, and has cooperated with Inria, the world’s top formal verification team.
