分散型台帳技術のガバナンスにおける公平性、相互運用性、透明性、信頼性を確保し、このテクノロジーが最大限の能力を発揮するために必要な変更を促す。
ブロックチェーンは、情報の安全な分散保管・転送を実現する初期段階のテクノロジーです。摩擦を最小限に抑え、汚職を減らすとともに、信頼性を高め、ユーザーに権限を与えるための追跡とトランザクションを行う強力なツールになる可能性を秘めています。分散型台帳技術(DLT)を基に構築された暗号通貨は、生まれたばかりの新しいテクノロジーですが、新たな富を創造するゲートウェイとして、また金融市場全体を混乱させる創造的破壊者として、注目を集めています。エネルギーから運送、メディアに至るあらゆる部門で、画期的な使用事例が試されています。DLTには、システム全体を改革する可能性がある一方で、相互運用性の欠如、セキュリティ上の脅威、権力の集中、最近の誇大広告による試行錯誤を嫌う傾向など、さまざまな課題に直面しています。
社会的に疎外された人々から権力者まで、あらゆる人がその変革のメリットを受けられる。このテクノロジーを体系的かつ包括的なアプローチで取り組むことで、そのような仕組みを作ることができるはずです。
このプラットホームは、すべてのユーザーがこの強力なテクノロジーからメリットを得られるように、パートナーやメンバーと協力しながら、DLTを管理するための体系的かつ包括的なアプローチを推進します。
