The United States military continues to explore blockchain technology to improve its processes. The U.S. Navy has signed a $1.5-million contract with Consensus Networks to develop a blockchain-enabled logistics system named HealthNet back in May. The project, built on Internet of Things-focused blockchain IoTeX, is halfway complete, counting the days for its pilot scheduled for early 2022.
According to the information shared with Cointelegraph, Consensus Networks aims to provide real-time monitoring and logistics for nearly 700,000 sailors and marines via the HealthNet platform. The developer picked the IoTex blockchain to meet the security and scalability requirements of the Navy.
