📍Bank of England: "Multi-Moneyverse" - Stablecoins - Tokenised Deposits - Central Bank Money = All freely exchangeable 🎤In a recent speech, BoE Deputy Governor Sarah Breeden sets out her vision for a “multi-money” system where different forms of money including traditional and tokenised commercial bank deposits, stablecoins and central bank money are freely exchangeable – delivering the benefits of innovation to UK households and businesses, whilst safeguarding trust in money itself. Innovation in money and payments is happening at pace. ➡️ Checkout BBA's response to Stablecoin Consultation here: https://britishblockchainassociation.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Stablecoins-FCA-BBA-Response.pdf ➡️ BBA's response to FCA's Crypto Consultation here: https://britishblockchainassociation.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/FCA-DP-Cryptoassets-2025-BBA-1-2.pdf ➡️ BBA's response to HM Treasury's Crypto consultation here: https://britishblockchainassociation.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/BBA-Response-to-HM-Treasury-DSI-Cryptoassets-FINAL.pdf ------ #BBA #UK #DLT #Crypto #Blockchain #Payments #Stablecoins #Tokenised #Money

Which Blockchain would you choose to attest a Smart City’s millions of devices? 📍 A striking fact: By end of 2025, the economic impact of IoT applications in Smart Cities is estimated to reach £9 trillion per year. 🏙️ Smart Cities run on Trust. So, what does a Smart City built on #Blockchain look like? Every device — from parking sensors to traffic lights — attests its integrity through a blockchain node. Consensus algorithms ensure tamper-proof data validation. Smart contracts detect and flag malfunctioning devices instantly. Authentication, authorization & accounting (AAA) systems secure citizens’ data. ➡️ This #JBBA research is from British Telecommunications (BT Group) and presented at the British Blockchain Association’s International Scientific Conference (#ISC). 📰 Infographic: BBA’s Centre for Evidence Based Blockchain (CEBB) #SmartCity #Blockchain #Web3 #DLT #IoT #EvidenceBasedBlockchain

Around 17 people die each day waiting for an Organ Transplant. Globally, one person is added to the Transplant waiting list every 9 minutes. 📍 NEW JBBA Research Alert: ➡️ "Ethical Compliance Framework for Blockchain-Enabled Tissue and Organ Transportation Systems" By Dr Elif Calik and Prof Malika Bendechache of University of Galway, IRELAND. This study introduces an Ethical Compliance Checklist – the first structured framework designed to guide blockchain platforms in ensuring autonomy, fairness, privacy, and trust in Tissue and Organ Transportation (T/OT) systems. KEY Findings: ✅ The #Blockchain can provide tamper-proof, transparent, and auditable records across every stage of the T/OT pathway – from donor consent to cold-chain monitoring and final transplant. ✅ The framework operationalises “Ethics by Design”, ensuring that data privacy, fairness, and #accountability are embedded from the outset. ✅ A real-world end-to-end scenario is presented, showing how #smart contracts, #IoT sensors, and zero-knowledge proofs can safeguard the entire process, while allowing regulators to #audit in real time. This work lays the foundation for more transparent, equitable, and #ethically robust healthcare systems – where technology directly serves human dignity and survival. 📖 Read the full paper here:

🏛️ US Government will put economic data on the Blockchain. Earlier this year, the United States published its National Blockchain Roadmap – the American Blockchain Act of 2025, outlining how Blockchain will underpin government and public services. 🌍 To date, only *15* countries worldwide have developed a National Blockchain Roadmap, signalling a new era of global competition for digital trust, transparency, and innovation. 🇺🇸This move by the U.S. Department of Commerce highlights Blockchain’s growing role as a foundation for open government, resilient economies, and citizen trust. #Blockchain #DigitalEconomy #Policy #USA #Innovation #EvidenceBasedBlockchain U.S. Department of Commerce #Blockchain #Economy #Data

🚨 BREAKING: United States puts GDP on the Blockchain The 🇺🇸 U.S. Department of Commerce has announced that it will begin publishing official statistics — including GDP and national budget — directly on the Blockchain. 👉 This marks the first time a G7 economy will anchor its core economic data on-chain, ensuring immutability, transparency, and trust. ⏳ At The British Blockchain Association, we highlighted this in a post a couple of years ago on how national budgets and economic data could be published on the blockchain to strengthen public trust:
