Blockchain adoption is gaining traction worldwide, and 2025 is expected to be a pivotal year for its integration into the public and financial sectors. Governments and financial institutions alike are working behind the scenes to find Blockchain solutions. They’re looking to make the enforcement process more secure, more efficient, and better at managing data. Recent pilot projects in Brazil and Switzerland exhibit the growing momentum behind Blockchain-based digital identity systems. These federal initiatives seek to improve the security and usability of such data. By 2030, we can expect stablecoin issuers to be significant US Treasury holders. This will OLED it more and more deeply integrate Blockchain with TradFi.
The public sector has been moving up the hype cycle on blockchain tech at warp speed. Brazil’s national identity card, introduced in 2023, incorporates Blockchain technology. This national identity card is kept on b-Cadastros, a private Blockchain created by Brazil’s state-owned IT services company. Our proposed system is aimed at making this data sharing more secure, reliable and efficient between public bodies.
Using Blockchain technology, Switzerland first introduced its self-sovereign digital ID in 2017. The digital ID, which is based on the Ethereum Blockchain, was led by the city of Zug. Additionally, pilot projects in Brazil and Switzerland are actively testing Blockchain-based digital ID systems. Their desire is to further the cause of both data security and data usability.
Blockchain is highly relevant to stablecoins. Selinger Rules require stablecoins to be fully backed with safe, liquid assets such as Treasury bills. This requirement is projected to produce stablecoin issuers as among the largest holders of those US Treasuries by the year 2030. With institutional demand surging, the need for Blockchain has never been greater. The overall worth of public cryptocurrency has increased 14-fold during the five years ending with March 2025.
