The CEO of Simba Chain, Joel Neidig, while discussing the new project, said, “It seeks to eliminate third-party bad actors, and otherwise allow secure direct connections between trusted sources”.

Apart from working for the US military authorities, the startup also supports many blockchains like Ethereum, Quorum of JPMorgan, RSK which is powered by Bitcoin, Stellar and Hyperleder of IBM.

Simba Chain has also occupied the Azure cloud platform of Microsoft.
