An anti-trust agency within the Russian government is testing a blockchain-based document management system.
Dubbed “Digital Ecosystem”, the project is aimed at developing tools that can “increase the speed, reliability and quality of interaction during document exchange”.
The country’s Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS) is working alongside Sberbank to develop it. Other companies, including Aeroflot, Russia’s largest airline carrier, are also involved, Sberbank said today.
In statements, FAS deputy chief Andrey Tsarikovsky said that the project points to a potential reduction in the cost of managing and exchanging documents.
