ChainFlow

Bridging Real World Assets (RWAs) On-Chain with Business Process Automation (BPA)

ChainFlow

Created At

ETHOnline 2023

Project Description

In today's digital landscape, Business Process Automation (BPA) stands as a beacon of efficiency, streamlining operations and enabling workforces to focus on core competencies. BPA's strength lies in its ability to integrate diverse teams, services, entities, and organizations, ensuring seamless and efficient transaction flows. However, as we transition from a digital transformation era to a blockchain-driven evolution, a new frontier beckons.

ChainFlow is at the forefront of this evolution, intertwining the robustness of BPA with the decentralized, transparent, and immutable nature of blockchain. By leveraging the power of blockchain, ChainFlow introduces a paradigm where real-world assets (RWAs) - be it real estate, business process, digital art, or any tangible asset - are tokenized and brought on-chain for use in decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystems. This fusion not only accelerates operations but also offers unparalleled control over business processes, fostering improved communication and eliminating the limitations of isolated applications.

The integration of RWAs into the blockchain via ChainFlow offers a plethora of advantages:

Diversified Investment Opportunities: RWAs in DeFi can offer sustainable and diversified sources of yield. By tokenizing physical assets and bringing them on-chain, ChainFlow provides exposure to different asset classes and markets, balancing risk-return profiles and bridging the gap between traditional finance and crypto.

Enhanced Liquidity and Access: RWAs, when tokenized as NFTs, can transform traditionally illiquid assets into tradeable commodities on global marketplaces. This not only lowers barriers to entry but also amplifies the asset's liquidity.

Unlocking Value with DeFi: Physical assets can be transformed into sources of yield through DeFi platforms. For instance, tokenized real estate could be used as collateral in lending protocols, or art pieces could be fractionalized and traded.

Integration with BPA: ChainFlow's unique proposition lies in its ability to connect BPA with on-chain events. By orchestrating smart contracts through BPA, processes can be automated, ensuring that, for instance, a loan is released once a property's ownership is verified on-chain.

Incorporating AI for Enhanced Efficiency: While our primary focus remains on blockchain integration, the subtle incorporation of AI can further optimize resource utilization. For instance, predictive analytics could forecast market trends, guiding BPA decisions in real-time.

Tackling the RWA Space: With an estimated combined value of over $300 trillion, RWAs present a massive opportunity. ChainFlow aims to leverage these assets, ensuring they are not just tokenized but also effectively integrated into business processes, thereby generating yields in DeFi.

The future vision for ChainFlow includes the possibility of decentralized BPA engines acting as individual nodes or "AppChains." This would allow for a more granular approach, where specific events or activities within a business process could be executed on-chain, ensuring transparency, immutability, and efficiency.

In a world where the boundaries between the physical and digital are blurring, ChainFlow stands as a testament to the power of integration, bringing together the best of BPA and blockchain, and pioneering a new era of business process innovation.

How it's Made

Main idea here is to have BPMN running in Off-chain engine or clusters of engines, which is considered to be an Application (Bank, insurance company, SAAS). Each Application has corresponding Factory Smart contract on Polygon CDK with each deployment of new version of business process onto engine, new definition is deployed on chain out of Factory accordingly. Results of off-chain BPMN execution is delivered onto chain BPMN deployment. In future we are planinng to have Engine’s decentralized and act as AppChains, where each entity type like Service Task, User Task, Event, Message, Gateway, or Sub process have corresponding factories deployed onto app chain, and can be executed by themselves without Process Engine (Camunda) operating off-chain, or have hybrid solution where some of the types of events/activities are executed on chain and some off-chain which would allow gradual development as well as versatile business processes implementation.
