    We wish Stellar all the best and it's certainly a huge improvement on Ripple Labs, but we're also working on a (not directly competitive, but related) project http://hyperledger.co…

    Looks like HN took it down. Will have to come back later as the screenshot looked awesome.

    I think you mean the URL in the ledger creation command, e.g., 'hyperledger ledger register newcoin https://newcoin.com' . This would just be the official site of the asset or comp…
