Bitcoin, the world's first digital currency, turned 10 on 31st October. Last year, the spirit of Bitcoin finally got out of the bottle. After years of being dormant, Bitcoin suddenly rose to almost USD 20,000 and everybody suddenly turned into a `professional crypto trader'. Defining Bitcoin's meteoric rise? 3,000 coins, 200 exchanges, nearly 30 million wallets and a 60 percent crypto-industry wage premium. Let that sink in. Fact is, though the money got the heads turning, it was mostly the Blockchain technology that caused the C suites to get seated and hold long hours of meetings as to how to reap its benefits. A blockchain is a digital concept to store data. This data comes in blocks, so imagine blocks of digital data. These blocks are chained together, and this makes the data immutable. When a block of data is chained to the other blocks, its data can never be changed again. It will be publicly available to anyone who wants to see it ever again, in exactly the way it was once added to the blockchain. That is quite revolutionary, because it allows us to keep track records of pretty much anything we can think of (to name some: property rights, identities, money balances, medical records), without being at risk of someone tampering with those records. Ever since the prodigal son returned, there has been a whopping rise in the number of cryptocurrencies. There have been new entrants like Ether, EOS, Litecoin and XRP etc. BUT: after a yearlong success of bitcoin, the mother of all bubbles burst. Turns out, 4 out of 5 ICOs were scams. Let's just say, for now, Blockchain is in safe hands. Like during every other technology's initial fruitful years, businesses have started evaluating methods to use blockchain for good. In this edition of CIOReview, we bring to you a list of 20 Most Promising Blockchain Solution Providers. We hope these solution vendors help you and your business to stay on the greener side of the fence and help your business grow manifold though Blockchain.
