The ShipChain platform is based on a simple, yet powerful solution called 'Track and Trace.' Our ecosystem will encompass all methods of freight, and will include an open API architecture that can integrate with existing freight management software. The ShipChain platform unifies shipment tracking on the Ethereum blockchain, using a sidechain to track individual encrypted geographic waypoints across each smart contract. With this system, the meaning of each cryptographic waypoint is only accessible for interpretation by the parties involved in the shipment itself. This gives shippers more visibility across their supply chain, and allows carriers to communicate with ease. Information about loads, geo waypoints, and other basic information is recorded and publicly validated within the sidechain. On the shipment's delivery and confirmation, the contract is completed and stored on the main blockchain.
Newton aims to create a new kind of economy - the community economy - by building blockchain infrastructure to enable freer, fairer transactions by anyone in the world. At the foundation is our NewChain blockchain and related technologies, with one primary chain and multiple subchains to ensure a high TPS. On top of that we offer infrastructure for smart contracts, IoT, AI, logistics, insurance, and a suite of apps for payment, retail, agriculture, and much more.
