Yolande Piazza, Google Cloud's VP Financial Services, announced on Thursday that the company has formed a Google Cloud digital assets\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> team to help clients create, trade, store value, and launch new products on blockchain-based platforms. The following is from the blog:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Functions of the team<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hedera, Theta Labs, and Dapper Labs, for example, are blockchain and distributed-ledger-based<\/a> solutions that have already adopted Google Cloud, according to the blog, and the Digital Assets Team will execute a variety of operations in the medium and long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the operations the team will do include dedicated node hosting\/remote procedure call (RPC) nodes for developers, node validation and on-chain governance with some partners, and supporting users and developers in hosting their nodes <\/a>on the “cleanest cloud in the industry.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The release also discloses that as the new team grows, it will look into ways to allow Google Cloud users to send and receive cryptocurrency payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This isn't Google's first excursion into the world of cryptocurrency. Google, the parent company of Google Cloud, has hired a PayPal veteran<\/a> to help with the development of Google Pay as the company continues to look to the future and explore cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In June, Google partnered with Coinbase to allow Coinbase<\/a> clients to use Google Pay to pay for goods and services. Google and Bakkt partnered in October to allow Bakkt users to use Google Pay to spend their cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
