Utilizing permissioned blockchains can significantly enhance scalability and security in cross-border collaborations. Unlike public blockchains, permissioned systems restrict access to known and trusted participants, allowing for optimized consensus mechanisms that increase transaction throughput and reduce latency. This controlled environment not only improves performance but also ensures compliance with regulatory standards across different jurisdictions. Implementing permissioned blockchains can indeed enhance scalability and facilitate secure cross-border collaboration. An academic paper supporting this practice is “MITOSIS: Practically Scaling Permissioned Blockchains” by Giorgia Azzurra Marson et al. This study introduces MITOSIS, a system designed to improve the scalability of permissioned blockchains by enabling dynamic creation and division of blockchains as participant numbers grow. The approach allows for parallel processing and maintains interoperability between chains, effectively addressing scalability challenges in permissioned blockchain networks.
