Have you heard? It seems that the United States is planning to put GDP data on the blockchain. Previously, it was stored on computers and published online, but now they intend to change the location and put it on the blockchain.

I heard that it is the U.S. Department of Commerce that wants to do this. Their Secretary, Raimondo, mentioned it a few days ago during a cabinet meeting at the White House. They are starting with GDP data to test the waters; if it goes well, other federal departments, and even the entire U.S. government's data might also end up on the blockchain.

However, many things are still unclear. There were reports earlier saying they initially wanted to use nine blockchains, but what these nine are has not been clarified yet. Some people speculate that the Bitcoin blockchain might be one of them, after all, Bitcoin is well-known and many people are aware of it. But apart from Bitcoin, what about the other eight? Are they the more commonly heard ones like Ethereum, Solana, or some lesser-known small blockchains? There is currently no reliable information; the officials have not stated anything, and credible media have not reported on it either.

It seems this matter is still in its early stages, after all, it was just announced a few days ago. The specifics of how it will be done and which chains will be used definitely need to be discussed slowly. It feels quite fresh; we often hear about individuals putting things on the blockchain, but it's the first time I've heard of a country putting such important economic data on the blockchain. I wonder how it will turn out in the end. #特朗普罢免美联储理事库克
