Chainlink is built into the BSN framework that will become the Chinese standard for blockchain based applications and services. The service releases tomorrow, April 25th. China Mobile, the leading telecommunications company in China, and UnionPay, the banking infrastructure used by over 2000 institutions in 178 countries, collaborated on BSN, along with the government backed think-tank State Information Center.
Excerpt: "Next month, an alliance of Chinese government groups, banks, and technology companies will publicly launch the Blockchain-based Service Network (BSN). It will be among the first blockchain networks to be built and maintained by a central government.
Think of it like an operating system, where participants can use existing blockchain programs, or build their own bespoke tools, without having to design a framework from the ground up.
The BSN’s proponents say it will reduce the costs of doing blockchain-based business by 80 percent. By the end of 2020, they hope to have nodes in 200 Chinese cities. Eventually, they believe it could become a global standard."
Since this releases tomorrow, and China is 12 hours ahead of the West......IT'S HAPPENING TONIGHT!!!!
