EEA Consortium released new specifications for corporate blockchain solution development

A blockchain consortium Ethereum Enterprise Alliance (EEA) published the second standards and specifications for off-chain trusted computations for developers engaged in creating corporate solutions based on ethereum protocol.

“Breaking news: Both the EEA Off-Chain Trusted Computer Specification V0.5 document AND the #Enterprise #Ethereum Client Specification V2 document are available for public download on our website! Visit the EEA at #Devcon to learn more!” the Consortium wrote in the official Twitter account.

Such standardization will make EEA solutions more attractive to corporate users, while off-chain trusted computations will allow them to make calculations outside the main network.
