広範な統括組織は、拡大し続けるHyperledgerエコシステムをホストし、追加のテクノロジーとコミュニティに対応

2024年6月25日 サンフランシスコ発 ー Linux Foundationは本日、分散型テクノロジーの市場と採用が拡大している認識のもと、Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust (LF Decentralized Trust) を設立する計画を発表しました。新しい統括組織は、Linux Foundationのブロックチェーン/デジタルアイデンティティ プロジェクトの世界的な強みを基盤とし、急速に成長する分散型テクノロジー分野をサポートするためのスペースを作り出します。より広範なエコシステムを促進するために、LF Decentralized Trustは拡大し続けるHyperledgerプロジェクトのポートフォリオを網羅し、分散型トラストの分散型システムへのマクロシフトに不可欠な新しいオープンソースソフトウェア、コミュニティ、標準、仕様をホストします。

分散型テクノロジーは、市場を急速に再編し、従来のビジネスモデルやシステムに変革をもたらしています。Boston Consulting Groupによると、資産のトークン化だけでも2030年までに16兆米ドルの市場規模になると予測されています。LF Decentralized Trustの拡大されたプロジェクトとメンバー エコシステムは、新たなトークン化資産クラスとネットワークに不可欠であると同時に、金融、貿易、政府、医療などのコア インフラストラクチャのモダナイズにも不可欠です。

LF Decentralized Trustは、台帳、アイデンティティ、セキュリティ、インターオペラビリティ、スケール、実装および関連技術を、幅広くオープンに開発するための中立的な拠点を提供します。これらの基盤技術の開発と展開におけるイノベーションとコラボレーションを促進するLinux Foundationの主要組織となります。また、LF Decentralized Trustには、個々のプロジェクトやプロジェクトのリソースに対するメンバーの戦略的な投資を促進する、新しい資金提供モデルも含まれます。

Linux Foundationのエグゼクティブ ディレクターであるJim Zemlinは、次のように述べています。
「LF Decentralized Trustで、より広範な分散型テクノロジーを取り入れることで、私たちはオープンソース イノベーションへの取り組みを拡大しています。この新しい高度なファウンデーションにより、コミュニティは、グローバル インフラストラクチャの透明性、セキュリティ、効率性を推進する、より強力なエコシステムを構築できるようになります。」

Linux FoundationのBlockchain and Identity担当ゼネラルマネージャーであるDaniela Barbosaは、以下のように述べています。
「Hyperledgerコミュニティを通じて、ブロックチェーンや分散型アイデンティティ、関連技術の開発を8年間推進してきた後に、その取り組みと影響力を拡大する時が来ました。台帳と台帳技術は、デジタルファーストの世界経済を支える分散型システムの一要素に過ぎません。LF Decentralized Trustは、世界中の重要システムのアップグレードを成功させるために必要な透明性、信頼性、セキュリティ、効率性を提供するために、広範なコミュニティとテクノロジーのポートフォリオを集め育てる場所です。」

LF Decentralized Trustは、分散型トラストを備えた分散型システムのオープンソース開発を推進する上で重要な役割を果たします。LF Decentralized Trustのメンバーシップ、詳細、ニュース、最新情報はこちらをご覧ください。
