“The future documents will include common specifications and standards related to information security, business operations, as well as various processes and methods. All of them should be the basis both in China and worldwide.”
The Talk Paid off
Since the publishing of documents on innovative technologies and distributed ledger architecture in 2016, influential people within the Chinese government have not stopped talking about the development of a blockchain standard.
Eventually, their “talks” paid off and an official seating in May 2018 led to setting a deadline for the release of these standards. it was agreed that latest December 2019, the standards need to be out.
Once the standards are in place, those who are still yet to trust blockchain technology will have some metrics to judge a project by, thereby bringing in fresh investor into blockchain technology at large. Hopefully, this move by the Chinese government will be followed by other supportive ones from the government, who has been tagged as “cryptophopic”.
