“Becoming a corporate baker for Tezos is a great opportunity for us to get involved in the ecosystem and extend our offering to our customers. What appealed to us about Tezos’ technology was the ability, as a corporate baker, to significantly increase the usability of blockchain payments by avoiding the gas fees management by the end-users.”

Tezos
Tezos is an open-source platform that addresses key barriers facing blockchain adoption for assets and applications backed by a global community of validators, researchers, and builders.
Tezos is the world’s most advanced and energy efficient blockchain, using proof of stake technology which has an exponentially lower impact on the environment than proof of work technology, used by other market-leaders.
In 2021 alone, the Tezos network processed over 50 million transactions with the energy consumption equivalent to 17 global citizens.

Be Blockchain is now part of a growing list of corporate bakers on Tezos which includes Rocket Launchpad, Smartlink, Ubisoft, Wakam, Exaion EDF Group, Taurus, Sword Group, The Blockchain Group, Nisbah Capital, Block0, and XP.Network. Be Blockchain will be the 18th corporate baker to join the Tezos ecosystem.
Louis Chevalier, Adoption Manager in BENELUX at Nomadic Labs, said:
“We are particularly delighted to welcome Be Blockchain as a corporate baker to the Tezos ecosystem; considering the strategic interest of a baker relying on the Scaleway sovereign cloud, with significant ability to scale the node deployment for Tezos.”
Becoming a baker is one of the best ways to become acclimated to the network and incentivizes its active participation in Tezos’ development. Being a baker allows enterprises to personally vouch for the security and verifiability of the network and exemplifies a corporation’s applying a forward-thinking, scalable investment in bleeding-edge technology.
Be Blockchain announced that by becoming Tezos baker it was making a strategic decision to utilize a protocol anchored in French scientific research, energy-efficient and whose implementation is facilitated both by its open-source philosophy and by Nomadic Labs’ technical support.
Be Blockchain said that it has launched delegations services around Tezos and seeks to become a pro-active participant of the Tezos ecosystem.
