Colored Coins startup Colu has announced that it is collaborating with professional services firm Deloitte.
The startup said in a statement: “By joint efforts, we will bring blockchain technology into big new markets.” In response to an inquiry by Finance Magnates, it said that it is not providing specifics on the companies or industries involved.

It has also the Australian Digital Currency Commerce Association (ADCCA) as it seeks to leverage the industry’s expertise, noting that its interest in digital currencies has existed “for quite some time.”
Colored Coins is an open source project that aims to develop new solutions based off Bitcoin’s blockchain functionality. By attaching various metadata, Bitcoin transactions can be “colored” to represent the transfer of stocks or other “smart property”.

The startup further mentioned that there are currently over 20 integrations with its platform, and that it is collaborating with at least two other startups: Warranteer, which aims to digitize product warranties via the blockchain, and Bitt, which wants to bring “global financial access” to more than 200,000 unbanked people with a blockchain-based “Caribbean Dollar”.
