ChainNinja Builds KYC (Know Your Customer) on 3 Leading Blockchain Platforms in One Application
ISELIN, N.J., April 10, 2018 (Newswire.com) - ChainNinja Blockchain Solutions, an Iselin, NJ based Blockchain Solutions Company creates a powerful application of KYC (Know Your Customer) utilizing three leading blockchain platforms; Hyperledger, Corda, and Qurom.
Know your Customer (KYC) is usually employed by companies of all sizes in the opening and maintenance of a customer’s accounts. Banks are under pressure from their investors and analysts to reduce costs, however, the cost of their compliance teams consider to rise year after year. What if there was a way to reduce costs in KYC and make transaction near real-time for KYC in all sectors using KYC. ChainNinja believes a blockchain based register would remove the current duplication of effort in carrying out current KYC checks thereby reducing the nearly $60 million spent on KYC.
KYC regulations are very expensive and cumbersome but are necessary to meet AML, Fraud and Compliance requirements. Blockchain offers a solution through its Distributed Ledger Technology, which can be used to avoid duplication of effort between members in the consortium and provides a common database of customers transaction history. Our KYC type solution on a DLT platform can weed out many criminal activities.

Clients are still uncovering the true potential of blockchain in their current environments and a great way to showcase the power of blockchain is to present a use case that most can understand and apply presently. Next is to understand that KYC built on blockchain can reduce processing costs, facilitates near-real-time data exchange, and increases trust because of underlying infrastructures ability to facilitate an immutable data storage mechanism.
Choosing a platform for such an application takes many considerations and different organizations are choosing different platforms based on key attributes for Federated, and/or Private Blockchains. While some focus on Corda others focus on Fabric. ChainNinja showcases KYC on three different platforms that can be applied intra-bank, inter-bank, and cross-industry.
There are a few unique features of their application architected by ChainNinja’s CTO, Sanjay Kumar:
- To build on multiple platforms and link them all.
- The use of on-chain/off-chain design pattern to improve the system’s overall performance and thus improve the user experience.
- A super KYC registry database utilizing NoSQL.
Streamlining KYC processes is among the key benefits of blockchain.
