Innovations in Asset Management
AppChain is built on the LF Decentralized Trust's Besu platform, an enterprise-grade, open-source Ethereum client. It is designed to support the development of blockchain-based solutions for businesses. DTCC highlights the growing complexity of financial markets and cost pressures as key drivers for more efficient collateral solutions.
