Advisory Note: The Blockchain and Life Management Platforms - 71606

Report Details

The core features of blockchains - decentralization and algorithmic consensus – can enable the creation of Life Management Platforms (LMPs) with better security and availability, as well as promote wider public adoption by providing independently-verifiable proof of personal data integrity. Even though there remain some requirements of LMPs that are not solvable with blockchains, overall the benefits that blockchain technologies can provide to LMPs are far from negligible.
