The Crown Prince of Dubai recently announced a strategic plan that all government documents will be securely stored on the blockchain by 2020. The announcement was made by Dubai’s crown prince at an event jointly hosted by the Dubai Future Foundation and the Smart Dubai Office. The blockchain platform is expected to eventually be used in government systems in multiple countries and cities. (Crown Prince of Dubai) Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum said the initiative is part of the UAE’s smart city project and aims to set standards for the project. He said:

In April this year, Dubai launched a Global Blockchain Initiative (GBI). At that time, it had recruited nearly 30 members from the public and private sectors. Now the number of members has reached 47, including members from government and financial institutions. Two major organizations – the Dubai Future Foundation and the Smart Dubai Office – will be responsible for this new blockchain strategy. Three pillarsIt is reported that Dubai's blockchain strategy will be built on "three pillars", including government efficiency, industry creativity and international leadership. Organizers believe that the blockchain project can bring about digital city transactions, thereby improving government efficiency. In addition, once government documents are stored on the blockchain, the project will create more business opportunities for private sector companies. Dubai hopes that real estate, banking, healthcare, transportation, urban planning, smart energy, digital commerce and tourism will all benefit from this new industry transition. Perhaps what’s interesting about this news is that Dubai plans to open its blockchain platform in other cities and countries. The Dubai Future Foundation and the Smart Dubai Office believe that with an international network, cross-border identity authentication, digital wallet and payment verification will become much simpler.
