IBM to open first blockchain innovation centre in Singapore

http://tech.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/corporate/ibm-to-open-first-blockchain-innovation-centre-in-singapore/53168020

IBM plans to open a blockchain innovation centre in Singapore in collaboration with the government, as the city-state strives to become Asia's main financial technology hub.

The tech giant will be working with the main economic planning agency, the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), and the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) to accelerate blockchain adoption for finance and trade.

One project, together with PSA International - one of the world's largest container transshipment ports owned by state investor Temasek Holdings [TEM.UL] - aims to connect fintech with global trade and logistics.
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
