The main purpose of any government is the protection of the lives, liberties, and property of its citizens.

After cryptocurrency comes cryptoidentity. So, we'll need to understand government passports as well as we understand government paper. A key concept here is that modern passports are actually embedded devices. So you can scan them, and compute on them. blog.trailofbits.com/2025/10…
