Speaking as part of the 18th collective study of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee in Beijing, Xi said, "blockchain technology has a wide array of applications within China, listing topics ranging from financing businesses to mass transit and poverty alleviation." His speech also called for the creation of “Blockchain+,” a platform alluding to personal development such as education, employment and food and medicinal safety, among other basic needs. This is a very interesting position to take considering the people’s bank of China banned cryptocurrencies in 2017. It could be the start of a campaign to convince the Chinese people to adopt it’s own digital Renminbi (Yuan). It’s great to see China positive about blockchain but I always wonder about he handling of privacy in the People republic of china.
