The United Nations aims to make it possible for all people to have a legal identity, including birth registration. This is one of the targets under the overarching goal of eradicating extreme poverty for all people everywhere by the year 2030. But providing an ID for everyone is a tremendous challenge. That is why experts are looking at Bitcoin’s blockchain technology as the solution. https://news.bitcoin.com/legal-id-bitcoin-blockchain-un/ Title: Re: [2016-08-25] Legal Identity for All: Can Bitcoin’s Blockchain Rise to the Challe Post by: Gahs on August 27, 2016, 01:56:13 PM So the blockchain can be used to carry out a census... that's good to know.
