Linux debuts decentralized trust with Hedera and 100+ members

The Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust will incorporate all of Linux’s decentralized projects in one place, including all of Hyperledger.

The Linux Foundation has created a trust as an umbrella organization for open source for decentralized ecosystems. The Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust (LFDT) debuts with over 100 members, including all the members of the Hyperledger Foundation, Hedera and 13 more new members.

Hedera is a premier member of the trust, joining Accenture, DTCC and Hitachi at that level. Hedera contributed its entire source code, including its hashgraph consensus algorithm, to LFDT, where it will be known as Project Hiero. Hedera source code governance will be transferred to the Linux Foundation, while the Hedera Council will retain operational governance of the network.

Another new member of LFDT, wallet-as-a-service provider Dfns, contributed its key management system to the trust. It will be known as Project Lockness. Dfns said in an X tweet:
