ISSUES OF USING BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY IN IDENTIFICATION OF CITIZENS
Abstract
This article explores the potential of blockchain technology as a transformative solution for identity systems. Traditional identification methods face many challenges, including fraud, privacy violations, and centralization risks. Known for its unique security features, decentralization and transparency, blockchain technology offers a promising alternative. Through a comprehensive literature review, this study assesses the current applications, benefits, and limitations of blockchain-based identity systems. The findings show that blockchain can significantly improve the security and privacy of personal data, while giving individuals more control over their data. However, the implementation of such systems is not without challenges, including scalability and regulatory adoption. This study highlights the need for further research to overcome these barriers and assess the feasibility of widespread adoption of blockchain for identification.
