PROJECT OVERVIEW
Product: Rekord IoT, a hardware monitoring and analytics solution for IoT infrastructure
Company Name: Rekord AG
Industry: Internet of Things (IoT)
Project or app URL:
Geographic Reach: Global
BSV Integration Start Date: Early 2023
BUSINESS CHALLENGES
Inefficiencies or Risks in the Supply Chain:
Lack of trustworthy, tamper-proof data across devices
Data fragmentation and silos
Burdensome, manual compliance and audit processes
Why Traditional Systems Were Insufficient:
Centralized systems could not guarantee data integrity
High integration costs and interoperability challenges with IoT ecosystems
Inability to scale for real-time, high-volume data from smart devices
WHY BSV
BSV as the Ideal Solution:
High throughput: Proven capacity of 10M+ transactions/day
Predictable, ultra-low fees (fractions of a cent)
Immutable ledger perfect for compliance and auditing
Scalable data infrastructure for IoT's machine-to-machine demands
Comparison to Other Blockchains:
Ethereum and similar platforms were ruled out due to scalability limits and prohibitive gas fees
BSV’s unchanging protocol and microtransaction capabilities made it a standout
SOLUTION ARCHITECTURE
Rekord developed a full-stack solution combining hardware (VortexSV IoT gateway) and software (RIOT protocol) to write machine data directly to BSV’s public blockchain.
Key Components:
Data Logging: Real-time IoT data capture and on-chain recording
Tokenization: Not in current scope, though potential exists for future digital twin implementations
Partners/Vendors:
Collaborations with hardware manufacturers for gateway development
Strategic integration via Rekord's open APIs
IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS
Rollout Phases:
Prototyping and internal validation
Field deployment with early adopter partners
Live transaction scaling and ecosystem onboarding
ERP/SCM Integration:
Rekord APIs were designed to plug into enterprise systems without replacing them
Flexible architecture allows integration into existing compliance and logistics stacks
Stakeholder Onboarding:
Emphasis on enabling ecosystem developers to build atop Rekord’s infrastructure
OUTCOMES & BUSINESS IMPACTS
Quantifiable Improvements:
Blockchain transaction record shattered: 10M+ daily transactions
Operational cost savings due to negligible transaction fees
Real-time visibility improved auditability and data trust across the supply chain
Before vs After:
From centralized, siloed logs to immutable, verifiable records
From complex auditing to seamless on-chain traceability
Stakeholder Feedback:
Clients are impressed by audit simplification and tamper-proof logging
Increased confidence in data used for reporting, certification, and analytics
CHALLENGES & MITIGATIONS
Technical Hurdles:
Managing vast data throughput from IoT endpoints
Ensuring scalability without compromising speed
Mitigation via BSV:
Leveraged BSV’s stable, high-capacity blockchain for continuous uptime and scale
Offloaded data validation and persistence to the blockchain layer, simplifying backend requirements
FUTURE VISION
Expansion Plans:
Onboarding global OEMs, integrators, and logistics providers
Positioning Rekord as the standard for IoT x Blockchain integration
Planned BSV Enhancements:
Exploring NFT-based device identities
Enabling micropayments for machine-to-machine economic models
Developer Community Growth:
TESTIMONIAL HIGHLIGHTS
James Marchant, Founder – Rekord AG:
“Our platform's ability to handle such a high volume of transactions demonstrates the scalability and robustness of the BSV blockchain.”
From Rekord's Medium Blog:
“We’re building more than a product—we’re creating the infrastructure layer for trust in the machine economy.”
Educational resources and developer toolkits via the
The will be central to sharing use cases, tutorials, and platform updates to grow the ecosystem
