It is the first decentralized peer-to-peer payment network that is powered by its users with no central authority or middlemen. Hyperledger is a permissioned, shared ledger that is being developed in an open-source environment. Fabric is the most developed implementation, managed by several companies, most notably: IBM. MultiChain helps organizations build applications on blockchains and shared ledgers though managed permissions, rapid deployment, and data stream.
