The Solution

ConsenSys partnered with Web3 Labs to help address this challenge. Our team worked together with ConsenSys' protocol engineering team to deliver a number of privacy enhancements to Besu, such as privacy groups and adding the ability to dynamically modify participants in private transactions.

Customer Benefits

Deploying these enhancements has allowed Besu to meet the privacy requirements of the organization's enterprise customers. In addition to streamlining the integration path for Web3 developers, these enhancements were also incorporated into Web3 Labs' Web3j library, streamlining the integration experience for businesses and users.

Since this process was carried out under the governance of the Hyperledger project, it benefited the wider Hyperledger community which helps expand the overall enterprise blockchain ecosystem globally.
