[arrowdebreu]

Report by the U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General:

• Blockchain technology is a new way to transfer any kind of data or information in a fast, tracked, and secure manner without need for an intermediary.
• Major companies, such as Citibank and Australia Post, are beginning to research and experiment with this technology in order to provide new and more efficient services.
• The Postal Service could benefit from use of this technology – particularly regarding financial services, identity services, supply chain management, and device management – and should consider exploring and experimenting with it.
