Soon, the city also intends to integrate health data and payment administration. Significantly, the broader roadmap seeks to implement this blockchain-based solution nationwide by 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guillermo Villanueva, the chief executive officer of Extrimian, stated that this is a monumental move toward a more secure and efficient future for government services in Latin America<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make their digital identity framework a public benefit is the objective. He added that Buenos Aires serves as a model for other Latin American nations by demonstrating the advantages blockchain technology can offer its citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
