China’s national blockchain project adds Polkadot support
Chinese government-backed blockchain initiative, the Blockchain Service Network, or BSN, is introducing support for another batch of major blockchain protocols. Yifan He, CEO of Red Date Technology and executive director of the BSN Development Association, reportedly said that the Bityuan framework is becoming increasingly popular in China, stating:
The latest blockchain addition represents the third batch of blockchain protocols supported by the BSN network.
Piloted in 2019, the BSN rolled out its first set of blockchains including Ethereum and EOS in August 2020, with other networks like Algorand coming as part of the second batch. As previously reported, the integration of new blockchain protocols allow global developers to access a certain network through the BSN’s global public city nodes and portals.
