Features and Benefits

PreviousConfiguration SymbolsNextCore Concepts

For Your Business

  • Registration of any type of data records on the blockchain to facilitate trust in them.

  • Optional unencoded records providing global accessibility and transparency.

  • Encoding of records to keep them private. See .

  • Provision of the blockchain record location which can be used by third-party tools, avoiding vendor lock-in.

  • Optional linked records that support sets, provenance, logs, histories, chronicles, journals, audit trails, tickets, certificates and other documents. See .

  • Read and verification of records, without requiring any other tools.

  • The ability to pass linked record authorship to another party in a consortium, enabling multi-party collaboration.

  • Easy navigation of linked records

For Your Developers

  • Documented and testable REST API enabling easy integration by non-blockchain engineers. See and .

  • Status of the blockchain writing process enabling easy error handling, and evidence of record content and time-stamp.

Please see about using the blockchain.

Vendor Independence

For each "submit" type of operation, the blockchain record location is provided. This enables you to easily locate records on the blockchain using nChain Event. It also enables you to use readily available third-party tools (such as ‘WhatsOnChain’) for reading and verifying records on the blockchain.

This means that you (and your partners and customers) can operate independently from nChain Event if you want to.

This even applies when you encode the record, if you select an industry-standard encoder.

Web3 Development

You don't have to be a web3 developer to benefit from nChain Event.

Utilizing the public blockchain via nChain Event provides essential technical benefits for web3 application development. By deploying nChain Event in your own domain, you can achieve strong cryptographic security, ensure data immutability, maintain transparent transaction logs, irrefutably link records and operate in trusted consortia.

Web3 technology reduces the dependency on centralized intermediaries, enabling independent viewing and verification of records.

nChain Event facilitates this by offering a simple interface to the blockchain, streamlining integration and management for developers.
