Transforming Data Storage with Blockchain

Imagine a shift in perspective where your persistent data is anchored securely on Blockchain. What could this mean for international movements and eligibility verifications? Could this be the beginning of a revolution in how we manage and validate our identities?

Using Blockchain to Determine Eligibility

Let's picture the scene of arriving in a foreign country, being able to instantly assert your nationality via the blockchain, and immediately establish your eligibility to stay. With current systems, individuals placed in hotels for identity checks are prohibited from working. But what if it didn't have to be this way?

Unleashing Professional Individuals with Blockchain

Perhaps many people moving into a new country already have professions, such as being a doctor, a lawyer, a teacher, or an assistant. Suppose their certificates of qualification were stored on the Blockchain. They could immediately demonstrate their skills and competence, continue their professional contributions, and potentially start working while their residency documentation is under review.

Blockchain offers the potential to empower individuals and enable contributions to their lives and the broader community. It's not just a technology - it is an instrument for societal progress.

Exploring the New Digital Web 3.0 Domains

In a rapidly changing digital landscape, web 3.0 domains are emerging as a new way to claim and secure digital identities.

  • .E A Metaverse
  • Alison
  • Alexander
  • Sammy 00

These web 3.0 domains do not just secure your identity; they can also be utilized for your professional webpage, private emails, and to secure your personal digital wallet. With the advent of web 3.0, there is a boundless potential to revolutionize data management, overcome societal challenges, and enhance lives.

The Way Forward with Blockchain and Web 3.0

I invite everyone, especially professionals in the public sector, to delve into the world of Blockchain and web 3.0, and explore how they can enhance service delivery to citizens. It's been a pleasure talking about these transformative technologies, and I look forward to engaging in further discussions. Don't hesitate to reach out if you'd like to learn more. In the meantime, enjoy exploring these advances and utilizing them to enrich your personal and professional life.

To be able to work through whether you are eligible to stay in this country. Actually, what if we were to look at that differently? What if your data was stored on the Blockchain?And therefore when you arri arrived in the country, you would be able to demonstrate straight away your nationality and then it could be worked out if you were eligible to stay in the country. Because one of the things that happens when somebody gets placed in a hotel and their identity to be checked um is that they're not allowed to work. Now, people have come into the country and they already have a profession. And I think if that person's certificates of qualification were placed on the Blockchain, they could arrive in the country. And whilst their documentation was being checked as to whether they could stay in the country, actually, they can still take up employment as a doctor, as a lawyer, as a teacher, as a help assist or any of those. And this is where the book chain to get it to work for us more. This is a way that we could empower individuals and enable them to actually contribute towards their own life and to the community. The Blockchain is a tool to assist us to do this.

So a final point I just want to flag as we come to the end is in the new way. There are new domains we used to use com domains. Now there are the web three domains, these identities like Alison, Alexander dot E A Metaverse. A Sammy 00, my daughters, they are used to secure your identity and you can use these for web, for your website, for your private emails or to have access to your own digital wallet. So many aspects, Web three has the potential to revolutionize the way we store, manage data and overcome society challenges we face today. So I really invite you all to jump into web three. Go explore it. Look at how it can be used to enhance your life. And if you're a professional working in public sector, I really encourage you to think about how it can help you deliver your job and to serve your citizens in different ways. It's been great to have you here today. Great talking with you. I look forward to getting in touch with anybody who wants to um have some time and talk about what I've talked about today. Enjoy the rest of the conference. Um And I look forward to learning lots more from everyone here on the event.
