I always understood that TradeLens is something that could be built with a simple database but they used Blockchain to hype up potential partners to sign up.

I’d expect to see at least some of these cynical solutions actually work in practice. So interesting they decided to shut it down, instead of just walking back the blockchain part.

The Australian stick-exchange came to the exact same conclusion and scrapped their own blockchain solution. It was always a stupid idea.
