Toronto, Ontario, September 14, 2017 – Blockchain Evolution Inc (“Blockchain Evolution or the Company") announces that it has commenced a government blockchain project designed to create anti-fraud blockchains for use by governments worldwide.

Based upon preliminary discussions held with the UK Government’s Department of Works and Pensions, Blockchain Evolution’s new project is focused on the issue of social security fraud, which is a problem common to all governments. For example, the UK social security system loses approximately GBP1.5 billion per year from social security payments that continue to be paid to deceased beneficiaries. All governments have limited ability to identify such fraudulent payments unless information is volunteered to the government by the deceased’s family. Blockchain Evolution proposes a government centric identification-based blockchain that securely records the social security data of all beneficiaries and then requires proof-of-life identification processes to be implemented regularly in order to maintain payments. A failure to complete the proof-of-life process would lead to social security payments being suspended, thereby drastically reducing fraudulent payments. Blockchain Evolution would maintain the government anti-fraud blockchain at a fraction of the cost of the losses currently being sustained through social security fraud.

Blockchain Evolution is setting up a software team in India to fully develop this anti-fraud blockchain project, and sees many other uses derived from this concept.

“Governments lose billions from all types of fraud that is based on identification failures, and I believe that Blockchain Evolution’s identification-based blockchain can offer a low-cost solution to these fraudulent activities” said Danny Wettreich, Chairman of Blockchain Evolution.

The blockchain owned by Blockchain Evolution was originally developed for use by the GreenCoinX cryptocurrency ecosystem, which is the world’s first identification based cryptocurrency. The Indian software team will develop modifications to the identification-based blockchain such that it can be utilized for multiple government anti-fraud initiatives.
