    Communication activities

    The Foundation designs, builds, and evaluates experimental deployments of distributed ledger technologies that directly contribute to public welfare, such as improved e-Government services, climate change mitigation technologies, micro-payment systems to integrate historically excluded persons into the global economy, and more. The Foundation also engages in regulatory advocacy efforts at the German, EU, and international levels. The aim of this work is to help ensure that financial regulations, monetary regulations, tax laws, consumer protection laws and data privacy laws are applied to cryptocurrencies, distributed ledgers, and machine learning technologies in ways that protect the public interest while also advancing and promoting innovation.
