The Hyperledger Quilt already enables a specific type of blockchain interoperability using the Interledger Protocol, i.e., enables payments across any payment network using the Interledger protocol. A relatively recent Hyperledger Lab, “Hyperledger Labs Blockchain Integration Framework”, is creating a communication model to enable permissioned blockchain ecosystems to exchange on-chain data or custom assets independent of the platform (e.g. Hyperledger Fabric, Quorum, etc.).
Nevertheless, to the best of our knowledge, no Hyperledger project is tackling “general blockchain interoperability”, for both public and private blockchains, or studying the impact of blockchain interoperability, in specific on the Hyperledger ecosystem.

The Use Case: Digital Media dApp
The scenario corresponds to a decentralised decentralized ecosystem for Digital Media contents, that empowers the creators of those contents and delivers to consumers a diverse collection of classic and original contents.
That ecosystem is based on an artist-centric model, in which the creators are paid fairly for their contents (music, video, images, texts…), and their fans consume, share and enjoy what they like, and pay a fair value. This model considers that publishers, labels or digital distributors are equal to creators, rather than dominant members of the ecosystem.
The dApp aims to help artists monetise monetize their work in a transparent and secure peer-to-peer marketplace by implementing and enabling interoperable blockchains throughout the whole production, distribution, and management process, ensuring that their work is correctly recorded (including rights management and tracking), and that they receive fair royalty payments (through the use of smart contracts and cryptocurrencies).
