Now you have a good idea of the different subprojects that make up Hyperledger and an awareness of the tooling you can use to build Hyperledger-based projects. Hyperledger is a set of technologies for building private blockchain networks for enterprises, versus the public and tradeable networks, such as Ethereum and Bitcoin. The Hyperledger family is made of six projects and a set of support tools, all with subtly different focuses and advantages to suit different projects.
Over time, the different projects are expected to become more consistent and interoperable. For instance, Hyperledger Burrow and Hyperledger Sawtooth have already cross-pollinated with the Seth transaction family, which allows Sawtooth to run Ethereum smart contracts. It is expected that tools such as Cello and Composer will be extended to support additional Hyperledger projects in time, leading to an increasingly robust ecosystem.
Next, we will discuss Ethereum in depth. Ethereum is a public blockchain network...
