Building Trust in Blockchain Markets 🌐🚀
In the latest edition of the Global Blockchain Business Council (@GBBC_io)’s 101 Real-World Blockchain Use Cases Handbook, we explore how the Legal Entity Identifier (#LEI) and the verifiable LEI (#vLEI) can support the sustainable growth of digital asset markets.
By leveraging global standards and protocols such as the LEI and vLEI, market participants can directly embed verifiable identities into transactions and processes, including #KYC and #KYB procedures. In doing so, these markets are closing the gap between traditional and decentralized finance while taking an important first step toward making automated #Compliance a reality.
As part of its commitment to enabling global digital trust, GLEIF will continue to explore this and other innovative applications of organizational identity.
Read the full handbook to explore this and other innovative use cases: gbbc.io/media/use-cases-hand…
🌐 GBBC and our global community are excited to release the 101 Real-World Blockchain Use Cases Handbook, 2026 Edition!
Featuring 101 use cases across several industries and jurisdictions, the Handbook shows how #blockchain is moving beyond the hype to solve real challenges and strengthen #digitalinfrastructure.

Federal agencies have run on 50 incompatible entity identification systems for years. That's now being addressed.
U.S. financial regulators have finalized the joint rules under the Financial Data Transparency Act (#FDTA), explicitly mandating the Legal Entity Identifier (#LEI) as the standard for entity identification.
The path here runs back to the 2011 'Linchpin' paper, in which U.S. regulators first articulated the need for a standardized code to identify legal entities and their relationships. That need is now written into law. #RegTech
Alexandre Kech, GLEIF CEO: "The explicit mandate for the Legal Entity Identifier marks a pivotal moment for financial data standardization in the U.S. GLEIF looks forward to supporting each agency through their individual rulemaking over the next two years."

Around 70% of respondents in a recent survey use Level 2 data. Nearly 85% consider it quality data. As corporate structures grow more complex, demand for reliable ownership information keeps rising, and keeping it accurate at scale is the hard part.
In a new blog, Zornitsa Manolova, Head of Data Quality Management and Data Science at GLEIF, looks at how artificial intelligence (AI) can help.
Within the Global LEI System, Level 2 data answers the question of who owns whom: parent and subsidiary structures, branch-headquarters links, and fund relationships. Much of that information already exists, but it sits buried in annual reports and corporate disclosures that are hard to review manually.
GLEIF is now using AI-based extraction to pull relationship data from these documents and structure it, with human oversight to validate the results. One finding stands out: after prompt optimization, a smaller, cheaper model outperformed a larger one. Better inputs, not bigger models, made the difference.

Regulated stablecoins are becoming settlement infrastructure. The constraint on scale isn't the token, the chain, or the issuer.
It's verifiable counterparty identity.
That's what the Legal Entity Identifier (#LEI) and verifiable LEI (#vLEI) are built to deliver.

What makes cross-border digital trade trustworthy? Before a digital signature or e-document carries weight, the parties need to know who is who and who owns whom.
GLEIF's Vikas Panwar takes that to the EU-India TTC Business Forum in New Delhi on 4 June. #DigitalTrade #LEI

The EU's European Business Wallet could let companies operate across 27 Member States on one digital identity. But inside it, the Legal Entity Identifier (#LEI) is optional, and each Member State decides whether to include it. #DigitalIdentity
Optional usually means left out. GLEIF CEO Alexandre Kech on why that's a problem: gleif.org/en/newsroom/blog/u…
