International Business Machines Corp. expects to go live as early as September with one of the largest commercial uses of blockchain, the online ledger technology that underpins bitcoin.
The implementation, which will help its financing unit resolve disputes with customers and partners, could send a signal to a market where enormous amounts of money have been invested in blockchain companies and their technology. The move also will make IBM one of the largest organizations to date to shift beyond limited tests of the emerging technology to real-world business transactions.
