Baseline Protocol

Interact with the Baseline Protocol

The Baseline Protocol is a process standard for using blockchain or distributed ledger technology as a common frame of reference between two or more disparate systems. Enforcing real time data-reciprocity between ERPs, databases or state machines, or amongst other distributed technologies allows participants to verify counterparty data integrity and consistency throughout any business process, without exposing any sensitive information. It is particularly promising as a way to reduce capital expense and other overheads while increasing operational integrity when automating business processes across multiple companies.

The following is a generalized walkthrough for the initial setup of a baselined ecosystem. Your specific needs may vary from what is described here, and you may need to refer to other relevant steps for your organization, depending on whether you are an operator or participant.

You must complete the CLI quickstart prior to starting this guide.
