Wanchain unveiled WANLab at the World Blockchain Forum in Dubai today. WANLab is an international blockchain incubator powered by Wanchain.
WANLab will fuel the projects with mentorship, resources and support throughout the different stages of development. WANLab is creating an ecosystem to accelerate the next generation of quality blockchain startups.
Today Wanchain announced the first six incubator projects that will be channelled through WANLab. Wanchain will also announce the initial consortium accelerator graduates later in Q2 2018.
“By supporting and mentoring the startups behind quality blockchain applications, Wanchain is seeding quality products into a blockchain industry plagued by hype and half-baked apps,” — President of Wanchain, Dustin Byington
Similar to how an electronic funds network powers fiat currency transactions, Wanchain will power blockchain transactions, regardless of cryptocurrency type. WANLab cultivates the rapidly growing Wanchain ecosystem with highly-vetted and high-potential projects across the global blockchain realm.
Key benefits of WANLab for blockchain startups include:
. Increased exposure and networking opportunity with investors and collaborators in the Wanchain ecosystem.
. Hands-on advisory to the full spectrum of business needs, including marketing, community building, legal and tokenomics.
. Marketing and PR strategic support for go-to-market launch and beyond
INDUSTRYChains Powering Blockchain Applications
As a digital currency-agnostic platform that enables the global interoperability of multiple blockchains, Wanchain will be the financial back-end powering an array of industry-specific blockchains known as INDUSTRTYChains.
These INDUSTRYChains will connect to the Wanchain main-chain using Wanchain’s cross-chain technology. Initial INDUSTRYChains to be supported by WANLab include the travel, gaming, and media industries. Wanchain will provide further details about these projects as well as their new ‘INDUSTRYChain’ infrastructure later in the year.

Abacus
Abacus is an open protocol for services that facilitate financial agreements on the blockchain. It breaks down what central parties do today into smaller, more modular services like identity, compliance, appraisal, auditing, or risk assessment represented as autonomous smart contracts on the blockchain.
The open nature of the protocol creates competition for these services, and results in cheaper and faster service providers. Our mission is to create the decentralized financial infrastructure of the future and pave the way for the total automation of financial agreements.

About Wanchain
Wanchain connects and exchanges value between different blockchain ledgers in a distributed manner. It uses the latest cryptographic theories to build a non-proprietary cross-chain protocol and a distributed ledger that records both cross-chain and intra-chain transactions. Any blockchain network, whether a public, private or consortium chain, can integrate with Wanchain to establish connections between different ledgers and perform low cost inter-ledger asset transfers. The Wanchain ledger supports not only smart contracts, but also token exchange privacy protection.
