The current plan is to use a private blockchain. It won't use a token that's publicly tradable, like IOTA. If this doesn't work out, then perhaps we will look into something like this.
Interesting, it would remove a lot of cost to use a public token and since IOTA will always have 0$ transaction fee it's perfect for companies. In any case if you hire interns let me know also (you can check my github profile, same name) ;)
