Title: [2014-10-31] techcrunch: Your Next Passport Could Be On The Blockchain Post by: LiteCoinGuy on October 31, 2014, 08:18:27 PM Your Next Passport Could Be On The Blockchain
A blockchain tinkerer named Chris Ellis has created a system to build an actual digital passport that, through use of the Bitcoin blockchain and some encryption, will allow you to identify yourself online and off. Called World Citizenship, the project just launched on Github and shows some definite promise. http://techcrunch.com/2014/10/31/your-next-passport-could-be-on-the-blockchain/ Title: Re: [2014-10-31] techcrunch: Your Next Passport Could Be On The Blockchain Post by: botany on November 01, 2014, 04:02:39 PM Covered by Forbes as well.

Chris Ellis? Is that the same guy from Feathercoin? Yes it is.
