IN SUMMARY

• Kenya mulls roll-out of new blockchain technology to boost service delivery.
• The technology stores information on transactions in a publicly shared ledger — in a way that cannot be altered.
• It has primarily been used to record financial transactions that underpin the virtual currency, Bitcoin.

Global tech giant IBM is in talks with the government to introduce blockchain technology in management of records in the health, education and real estate sectors to boost transparency in public information.

I believe that blockchain technology gives us a huge opportunity to create and run a transparent and secure online business. Thanks to substrate development 4irelabs.com/substrate-development/, you can get a reliable and secure business with advanced authentication and identity verification, which guarantees the security of assets and transactions.

I often notice that people still have more distrust towards blockchain technologies. First of all, this is due to the huge number of scammers on the Internet. A team of wakweli.com specialists helps to solve the problem of distrust, as well as identifying fraudulent activities, doubts about the genuineness and uniqueness of the asset. Something like a new stage in the entire ecosystem of tokenized assets.
