Blockchains have the ability to give corporations privacy and scalability in their transactional layers. However, public blockchains are currently sub-par in terms of privacy. ChainLink has devised an oracle to route transactional computation off-chain to its proprietary Trusted Computation Framework (TCF), October 7, 2019.

A bug centering around a new Ethereum token, GasToken, which was enabling abuse on cryptocurrency exchanges, appears to have been resolved. The details are provided in a report originally published on November 13, 2018, that discussed how the bug was exploited by attackers, and what digital platforms could do if they wished to protect their hot wallet funds.

Last May, the software developer and creator of revoke. cash, Rosco Kalis, released Cashscript version 0. 4 that included a number of optimizations. Cashscript’s new website highlights the high-level language that “offers a strong abstraction layer over Bitcoin Cash’ native virtual machine, Bitcoin Script.
On September 24, director of research at Tierion and Bitcoin developer Paul Sztorc announced the launch of the first Drivechain release. The Drivechain protocol is an alternative to the sidechain concept because it enables multiple blockchain compatibilities but the system utilizes the same 21 million bitcoins.
