Argentina will create an immutable citizen ID integrating a blockchain-based system with QuarkID. Buenos Aires, Argentina’s capital city, is edging closer to this integration which will unleash the best attributes of blockchain technology around high security, immutability, greater trust and decentralisation.
It is a requirement for most countries to implement an national interoperable identification system, which takes an infrastructure approach to linking up all data. This approach has been undertaken already connecting Ethereum, Polygon, and Rootstock to the project for autonomous digital identity.
Through Ethereum’s blockchain, the government will be able to ensure a reliable verification based on the decentralised model. Leveraging the immutability of distributed ledgers and cryptography from these providers will surpass trust for verification and data management.
QuarkID is a new protocol for Digital Identity and Self-Sovereign which is engaging collaborators including the Government of the City of Buenos Aires, the municipalities of Vicente López and Luján de Cuyo, as well as system providers. Collectively, collaborators will focus their due diligence on the issuance of citizen ID, transparent registration, verification and integrity of data stored on a chosen network.
