BSV Blockchain for Government
BSV’s Blockchain for Government Initiative provides education and drives global adoption of blockchain technology by government bodies, NGOs and public sector agencies in order to accelerate digital transformation and ignite economic growth.
Global adoption of blockchain technology requires enterprises and lawmakers to become comfortable with blockchain technology. To ensure the development of a regulatory environment that both fosters lawful conduct and facilitates innovation, we regularly engage with leading policymakers to raise awareness of legislative issues and advise on the development of positive policy.
In April 2021, the Blockchain for Government Initiative completed a historic week-long official visit to Khartoum, Republic of the Sudan, at the invitation of and under the patronage of the Ministry of Telecommunication and Digital Transformation. The visit centred around Sudan’s first-ever Blockchain Summit & Workshop, in addition to a comprehensive programme of meetings that explored how blockchain technology can advance digital transformation as the country rebuilds and re-emerges after 30 years of isolation from much of the world.
The nation of Tuvalu in the South Pacific is collaborating with leading enterprise blockchain technology company nChain, Bitcoin consultancy Elas Digital and community-tech consultancy Faiā on a digital transformation project that includes the development of a national digital ledger using BSV blockchain technology.
