Over the past few years, the developers at Blockchain Foundry have provided blockchain solutions to an international user base and clientele of developers and corporations. Most notably, the robust infrastructure of Syscoin and its developer-friendly features have been widely adopted by businesses and startups around the world, leading to the creation of decentralized marketplaces and platforms for secure transfer of assets and goods.
Using the well-established infrastructure of Syscoin and its blockchain network, the Blockchain Foundry development team will soon launch Blockmarket, the world’s first blockchain based e-commerce platform.

Through regular updates and improvements, the company will consistently work on the optimization of its products with an aim to disrupt many different markets and multi-billion dollar industries.
“Our team has demonstrated our blockchain expertise through three years of continuous development in a technological space that is constantly evolving. Our ability to keep pace with these changes is exemplified by the recent release of the Syscoin 2.0 reference client in May 2016,” said Wasyluk.
In the official press release, Wasyluk further emphasized the potential of the blockchain technology and the company’s unified interest in exploiting it to apply it in many different use cases.
“We are working with our partners at Microsoft to obtain product certifications on the Azure Marketplace platform, making Blockchain Foundry’s product the first bitcoin-derived offering to be Microsoft Azure certified… We look forward to exploring this potential through Blockchain Foundry and will be providing regular updates on our progress over the next several months,” he added.
