Provenance Blockchain

Provenance Blockchain is an eco-friendly proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain purpose built to modernize financial services, and the Provenance app is the core application for running a node in the network.

Provenance Blockchain is open-source with purpose-built capabilities leveraging the CometBFT (formerly Tendermint) consensus engine and Cosmos SDK. Combined, this complete financial services infrastructure makes it safer, easier, cheaper, and faster to build and manage financial products and services.
