Welcome to Provenance Blockchain for Developers

Welcome to Provenance Blockchain

At the Provenance Blockchain Foundation, our mission is to modernize the financial services industry from the ground up. We believe that blockchain technology can unlock unprecedented efficiency, transparency, and accessibility in financial markets. We also believe that cutting-edge technology must be paired with the specific, demanding requirements of finance. That’s why we’ve built Provenance Blockchain as a public, open-source, and purpose-built network designed to be the premier platform for developing and deploying financial applications.
To help achieve this, Provenance Blockchain is built using decentralized, open-source technology, including the robust framework of the Cosmos SDK and the battle-tested CometBFT consensus engine. This provides a secure, high-performance, and interoperable foundation for a new generation of financial services.

Platform Capabilities

Provenance Blockchain is more than just a general-purpose ledger; it's an integrated ecosystem designed for finance. To get started building, you can leverage its core, chain-level features:
  • Financial Ledger: Utilize a decentralized and immutable ledger optimized for financial transactions and record-keeping.
  • Asset Registry: Natively create, manage, and verify ownership of digital financial assets through our comprehensive NFT and asset origination modules.
  • On-Chain Exchange: Access deep and efficient liquidity through a built-in decentralized exchange designed for the seamless trading of assets registered on the network.
To begin, explore the guided tutorials and module documentation to understand how you can integrate these capabilities into your application.
