According to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, an American multinational financial services corporation MasterCard has won patent for a new blockchain that would allow to synchronize different blockchains together.
The reason, why MasterCard decided to create such technology is “...a need for a technological solution to provide a partitioned blockchain that is capable of storing multiple transaction formats and types in a single blockchain.”
It’s not the first time, when MasterCard publicly admits the blockchain technology. Earlier this year, the financial giant also has won patent, that was designed to accelerate transactions in the cryptocurrency and to make transfers more secure for the recipients.
