Blockchain Revolution

Particularly interesting are national and local opportunities to connect different
blockchain networks for greater efficiency across jurisdictions. For example,
departments of motor vehicles could connect drivers’ databases across state or
provincial boundaries to create a virtual database that facilitates confirmation of
driver identity, status, and track record. Or in the U.S. health care system, “Suppose
the patient, insurance company, doctor and a government payer all had their financial
records come together on a single ledger, visible to all, for any given transaction. The
potential for transparency would be matched only by the opportunities for new levels
of efficiency,” said Swan.
