What would these patents be? Is there any website explaining?
I do not know if I'm happy with such news. bitcoin emerged as a possibility to give freedom mainly to individuals. See corporations surrounding patents to protect their self and perhaps take away the freedom to create and develop new open and free technologies, it does not seem a good thing.

Not just the financial system but also other sectors like medicine, law and automobile industry. I'm not in favour of patents though. Blockchain should be open source.

Alibaba has always been a hub for welcoming new and more efficient technologies and providing services to the people . Alibaba's involvement in the patents of block chain does not surprise me. The biggest irony comes up with PBoc( Public bank of China) , In the country where the crypto currency is being wiped out the statistics shows that the "blockchain" patents are being widely used here . That is really amusing tbh !!
