About Wanchain

Bitcoin was the first natively digital asset; many more are following. The trend towards ‘digitizing’ assets leads to a fundamental change in the financial services industry. However, there is a problem. Currently many of these digital assets are isolated on their respective blockchains and their true potential is not being realized. Wanchain was founded by the technical cofounder of Factom, Jack Lu, with the goal of uniting the world’s isolated digital assets and transforming the digital economy.
