Ethereum blog examines how shared blockchain infrastructure could preserve institutional and individual sovereignty

The Ethereum Foundation has launched a new website, publicsector.ethereum.foundation, aimed at governments, multilateral organizations, and NGOs exploring Ethereum for digital public infrastructure. The site presents case studies and practical resources, arguing that shared infrastructure without a single controlling operator preserves institutional and individual sovereignty. Two examples are highlighted: Bhutan's National Digital Identity, where citizens hold credentials in personal wallets verified via an Ethereum registry, and a Technical Foundations proof of concept combining decentralized identity and private payments for humanitarian aid coordination without exchanging sensitive records.
