Bahrain sets to adopt this technology in a bid to reduce the cost of maintaining the country's vehicle registration data.

It is good news for the technology itself, it seems bahrain is so rich they won't even bother to make a token to sell for this project. As bitcoin has been permitted by sharia law then the whole region should see an increase in bitcoin trading

Well it is good if somebody tempered with vehicle registration data before that.

You can't change data after it is written in blockchain.

It is important to know the difference between blockchain and cryptocurrency.

Blockchain is just a database that is cryptographically protected from additional changes of data that was already being written in database.

wow!!!this is really great news and i think this will help crypto to go more strong.
every country should use blockchain technology bcz its transparent

Similar blockchain application(s) already exists from a company owned by Atos (Worldline?) What is surprising me in the country itself. Isn't Bahrain a monarchy with almost no human rights? Do they hope to jump from 1970 to 2018 like 1.2.3?

The money that can be saved is often the first argument used to adopt the blockchain technology, the security comes after

Bahrain is beginning to pay attention to the adoption of digital currencies such as Bitcoin in an effort to accelerate the adoption of Blockchain technology.
The Kingdom of Bahrain - a constitutional monarchy of more than 30 islands in the Persian Gulf is beginning to approach Bitcoin in a friendly way to become a FinTech hub in the region.
Khalid Al Rumaihi, General Manager of Economic Development of Bahrain, has unveiled a plan to develop regulations to regulate crypto in the country. The EDB is a government agency responsible for planning and implementing the country's economic development strategy.
In answering a question about cryptocurrencies at the event, Al Rumaihi stated:
We will open for Bitcoins
Notably, Al Rumaihi has pointed out that the Ministry of Finance of Bahrain - the financial regulator and financial supervisor - is also interested in adopting digital currencies such as Bitcoin.
In addition, he said about the extent to which Bahrain could accept and use digital currency when he showed that Bahrain could also issue a digital currency of its own.
