  1. Why do you think permissioned blockchain networks are preferred by many companies?

Because it’s not necessary for all and sundry to have access to it and the information therein. There may be business secrets and sensitive information to be kept away from the public or competitors. It needs to be kept purpose built and not hijacked by the general public. It’s expensive to build and see you don’t want anyone and everyone using it. If it’s permissionless then there needs to be insentives to keep it secure, the company may not want to issue insentives. Permissioned is simpler for a business. It’s a smaller network and thus more efficient.
