Government offers blockchain-as-a-service to public sector bodies

A new blockchain service is now available to UK public sector bodies through the G-Cloud framework.

The platform is provided on the government's Digital Marketplace for £99 per instance, although free trials are available to interested parties.

Credits Blockchain as a Service is a collaboration between Credits, an Isle of Man blockchain startup founded in 2014 by CEO Nick Williamson and COO Eric Benz, and Skyscape Cloud Services, a public sector-only cloud provider.
