BlockSkunk published Markus K. Brunnermeier's paper titled

Every multi-party operation runs on fragmented records. When two or more organizations work together, each keeps its own version of who owns what, when it settled, and which rules apply. Reconciliation teams exist to make those versions agree. Compliance teams still scramble to assemble evidence when assessors arrive. A shared database does not fix this. Someone has to own the database. At BlockSkunk, we build the multi-party system of record: shared-record infrastructure every party can cryptographically verify, and no single party controls. Stratum is the infrastructure layer you deploy on. Managed permissioned blockchain, production-ready in weeks, not months. One shared state beneath every party's systems. We operate the network; your teams integrate against open APIs. Six deployment templates cover payment settlement, supply chain provenance, tokenized asset registry, AI agent coordination, assessment records, and multi-party escrow. Arbiter is the record of final authority. A cloud-native validation layer that seals operations into tamper-evident, examination-ready evidence. Assessors verify directly. No reconciliation. No vendor attestation chain. SOC 2, ISO 27001, and NIST controls sealed as they happen. Most enterprises stall because their CISO will not approve infrastructure that lacks verifiable data integrity. We solve that at the protocol level, then compress 18-month enterprise timelines into 14-week integration sprints without sacrificing rigour. We have shipped production systems inside the frameworks: banking infrastructure, supply chain networks, and public-private deployments. We built the systems external assessors examined. The clearest signal is the one no one can alter. We build the neutral record so you can build the network. https://blockskunk.com
