Austrian Government-Backed Project Will Use Blockchain to Find Waste Heat Spots
Cointelegraph: The Austrian government is backing a project that would let citizens submit data about industrial waste heat spots for district heating, receiving tokens as reward. An Austrian project is set to use blockchain to help find waste heat hotspots in the cities of Vienna and Graz. Announced by the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT) on May 12, HotCity’s proof-of-concept involves creating a gamification system to crowdsource hotspots around the city and channel them to provide public heating. The platform will use the Ignis blockchain, part of the Ardor ecosystem developed by Swiss company Jelurida.

5 Decentralization Trends to Watch in 2020
Entrepreneur.com: Lior Yaffe, co-founder and director of blockchain-as-a-service software company Jelurida, expects the big trend in the space to be permissioned applications on a public blockchain. Yaffe explains, “Existing blockchain-based business solutions face issues such as lack of token incentivization or regulation. Therefore, I expect a hybrid multi-chain model where a parent, public permissionless chain serves as a decentralization layer for multiple child chains which in turn can be permissioned for a specific application domain.”
