WiMi Announced an Efficient Connectivity Solution Based on Blockchain Lightweight Architecture 5G IoT
BEIJING, April 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — WiMi Hologram Cloud Inc. (NASDAQ: WIMI) (“WiMi” or the “Company”), a leading global Hologram Augmented Reality (“AR”) Technology provider, today announced a lightweight blockchain-based architecture to overcome the limitations of traditional network architectures and provide a more secure, efficient and trusted connectivity solution for the 5G Internet of Things (IoT). Conventional 5G networks use security measures such as encryption during data transmission, but there are still certain risks associated with data storage and authentication.

Its decentralized, tamper-proof, and transparent nature makes […]
