【Philippine Senator Proposes to Put National Budget on the Blockchain】Golden Finance reports that Philippine Senator Bam Aquino hopes to connect the national budget to a blockchain platform, stating that this move will allow every peso expenditure to be tracked by the public. "No one would rashly connect their transactions to the blockchain—every operational step on the blockchain will be recorded and made publicly transparent. But we hope to initiate this attempt." Aquino said in a statement during the Manila Tech Summit held on Wednesday. "If successful, I believe we will be the first country to put our national budget on the blockchain." Aquino added that he is currently unsure about the level of support he might receive.
