ZirconTech, has added Tezos as a new blockchain platform for the Notarizer and will also integrate it into the “Tokenizer”’, a general purpose tokenization platform to be launched this year.”
“We are delighted to confirm our involvement in the Tezos ecosystem by becoming a corporate baker.
At ZirconTech, we were interested in the scalability of the Tezos blockchain and in its smart contract language conceived to facilitate formal verification.”
– Andres Zunino, Co-Founder & CEO of ZirconTech
A company that sets up a Tezos node, is playfully called a corporate baker. ZirconTech become the 27th corporate baker in the Tezos ecosystem.
A Corporate baker is not a special type of baker with any special position within the Tezos ecosystem.
The fact that this baker will be run by a corporation simply emphasizes the amount of trust and involvement corporations show in the Tezos blockchain.
Additionally, setting up a node/ baker enables them to play an active role in the democratic Tezos protocol and have a voice in the direction of core protocol development via amendment upgrades.
It essentially gives them a stake in the blockchain that they are running programs and applications on.
