Adoption & End Users
Prominent Use Cases
Walmart Canada enlisted DLT Labs™ to develop the world’s largest full production blockchain solution for any industrial application. The solution, DL Freight™, is now the national standard for freight invoice management for Walmart Canada and its national network of carriers.
Key results:
- Since DL Freight was introduced into its operations, Walmart has experienced a demonstrable transformation of freight management and carrier relations. What was previously an overwhelming number of invoice disputes in the range of 70% has now been virtually eliminated to only a small number of discrepancies, approximately 1.5%.
- After approximately six months of national deployment, the platform has successfully processed over 200,000 invoices totaling payments in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
Responding to a FDA request for new, cutting-edge approaches to improve the prescription pipeline. LedgerDomain developed BRUINchain, a blockchain-based system for pharmaceutical dispensers all within a shared-permission yet private ecosystem. While the pharmaceutical supply chain has numerous stakeholders, BRUINChain, which is built on Hyperledger Fabric, establishes one version of the truth for the pipeline that is immutable and invaluable.
Key results:
- In a trial within UCLA Health’s network of 500 pharmacists and technicians, the BRUINchain app’s barcode scanning functionality on iPhones was 100 percent effective.
- The Hyperledger Fabric-based system was able to track every dose of the medicine in the trial at UCLA Health, down to which refrigerator each dose was stored in across campus.
- Even before the pilot ended, the team was adding new functionality and products as the network of pharmacists grew more reliant on the BRUINchain system.
The National Bank of Cambodia (NBC) partnered with Soramitsu on a digital payment system that would modernize the country’s legacy retail payments. They developed Bakong, the first retail payments system in the world using blockchain technology.
Key results:
- The pilot project went live in July 2019 and ran successfully with a network of 14 banks supporting more than 10,000 users
- Retail throughput reached up to 2,000 transactions per second
- Interbank transfers improved from twice-daily batches to five seconds or less
- Bakong was fully launched in Cambodia in Q4 of 2020
Addressing the need to streamline regulatory reporting for insurers and ensure timely and accurate reports for regulator, the Chicago-based American Association of Insurance Services (AAIS) introduced openIDL, the first blockchain platform to enable efficient, secure data collection and sharing within the insurance industry
Key results:
- Prototype created and 5 million records tested in less than 90 days
- Mechanism for regulators to see more timely market information
- Efficient, real-time automated data uploads replace rigid, batch data-sharing
To increase confidence among members in credit union transactions and remove friction in the member experience, CULedger launched MemberPass™ as a permanent, portable digital identity for credit union members.
Key results:
- With MemberPass, credit unions can now streamline the initial member identity authentication process across the call center, drive-up and lobby touch points, empowering their members with one seamless way of interacting or identifying themselves with their credit union.
- The call center authentication process has been reduced from 5 minutes to 15 seconds or less
- Credit union’s annual fraud expenses in the call center channel will be reduced by an estimated $150,000 per year

Hyperledger Member Summit 2020
The Hyperledger Member Summit took place online this year over the course of two days on September 10-11th. With 427 people registered, 359 attendees, 90 sessions total, and 137 companies represented, this year is the largest Hyperledger Member Summit ever. The overall feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. Our post-event survey showed that 88% of respondents rated their overall experience as Excellent or Somewhat Excellent. Almost 90% rated the quality of content as Excellent, and 88% stated that the information provided during the sessions gave them insight on Hyperledger, Hyperledger Projects, and the future of the community. 379 member individuals were successfully onboarded onto our new Member Portal, which served as a collaboration tool to document the activities and proposals coming out of the Summit and establishes a member-only place for collaboration.
This year, for the first time, we had local language sessions to allow broader participation and inclusivity in our member community. There were a total of five Chinese language sessions and two opportunities during the breaks for the Chinese, Korean, and Japanese community to meet with each other. Our aim in planning this year’s virtual event was to find numerous ways to weave in opportunities for the spontaneous conversations between attendees that an in-person event offers by default. At the International Summit kick-off happy hour, 77 members joined us, and we brought levity and fun with four rounds of breakout groups, each with prompts to encourage sharing and conversation.
The collaborative and interactive nature of this year’s event included completing a SWOT analysis in breakout groups across three regions and prioritizing those into a Global SWOT document. Proposals from session discussions were collected into a prioritized list of ten proposals that we will engage our members on throughout the next year.
Member Quotes highlighting their overall experience:
- “This is the second member summit I am attending, and every time I have walked away making new industry contacts and learning a bit more about all Hyperledger projects. Well worth the investment of time and effort!”
- “The Member Summit was an engaging and collaborative experience that introduced me to new people, industries and technologies. It’s inspiring to see adoption happening out there.”
- “The opportunity to meet all global members in a single place and connect with them is priceless.”
- “Experience was excellent! A great summit to educate, participate and influence the next evolution in permissioned blockchain technology.”

State of the Ledger
Hyperledger turned five in December 2020. It first launched in 2015, supported by 21 founding members.
In the last five years, we’ve seen an entire ecosystem coalesce around the mission of advancing blockchain for business and, as a community, have built the multiple platforms and tools that are at the center of critical systems around the world. We now have a community of over 200 members with 16 named projects, 20 labs projects, five regional chapters and 20 Hyperledger Certified Service Providers (HCSPs).
In 2020, the focus has shifted from proving the value of blockchain to scaling, governance and managing blockchain networks. COVID-19 has given digitization of trust-based process a new urgency, driving deeper interest in identity and supply chain use cases.
Hyperledger’s role has always been to champion both development and deployment of these technologies, and everyday we see the impact our work is having. This anniversary is a great opportunity to look back at the specific achievements of the last year and our overall accomplishments. We arrive at this milestone with the same focus on community building and blockchain’s potential that started us on this journey in 2015.
