Welcome to Commercio.network 3.0 the era of the legally binding NFTs

What happened Wednesday night and how did we get to this point ?

Commercio.network on February 23rd at 18:11 reached  the 66.66% consensus  to  migrate  the blockchain  core software to the 3.0 version. A great operation that involved 70 of the 100 nodes that are part of the network and reached 100% consensus a few minutes later. What a rush ! The absolute migration’s protagonists  were  Marco, Mario, Nicola, Markus, Daniele, Angelo, Mattia, Dave, Greg, Dilan, Ivar and all the other CTOs of the companies that are part of the network.

These intense minutes in which the chain migrated from version 2.2 to version 3.0 have been preceded by a year of hard work by  20 developers coordinated by CTO Marco Ruaro who built from scratch the new release based on the latest version of COSMOS SDK.  This release will allow Commercio to join  the #IBCGANG and then finally be able to exchange virtual assets from  commercio.network to  the whole Cøsmos ecosystem  via IBC interchange protocol and finally on Ethereum thanks to the new Gravity Bridge.

What has changed and what will change for users of the Commercio.network blockchain ?

How will Commercio NFT Certificates  on commercio.network change the world ?

An NFT on commercio.network is a digital bearer certificate, simply put it is a negotiable instrument that transfers ownership of any asset (such as certified digital assets, physical assets, receivables, stocks or debts) not to a specific person (assignee) but rather to whoever holds the NFT.

Who holds the NFT in their  Wallet (non custodial) is the owner of the underlying asset. But not by virtue of a smart contract, but by a true legally binding contract between the parties. A contract written and signed following the  European eIDAS   that make any digital contracts legally binding. The scope of this invention is EPIC!

From version 3.0 it will be possible to invoke a function called Mint, to create  an NFT that is a certificate related to a good (a watch, a picture, a car, a house, an invoice that you actually own) To do this it is necessary to sign a contract in which you confirm that you are the owner and that you are willing to transfer its title (sale) to whoever owns the NFT. This Contractual Obligation can be obtained only thanks to the fact that Commercio.network as eIDAS compliant, allows the exchange of legally binding documents.
