Taiwan and IOTA: Bridging Blockchain Innovations
In a significant move towards fostering blockchain innovations, Taiwan’s Ministry of Digital Affairs recently hosted an invigorating workshop led by @kowei1995 from IOTA. The aim was to shed light on IOTA’s past government collaboration endeavors. The event, coordinated by @mashbean from @FAB_DAO, surpassed expectations. What was intended as a 45-minute presentation morphed into an extended dialogue, with an hour dedicated solely to questions and answers.

Among the attendees was the expert behind TangleID, the core technology for the Taipei Citizen Card. This presence underscored Taiwan’s longstanding interest in IOTA and its foundational technology, Tangle.
A Glimpse into Digital Identity (DID)
One topic that is gaining momentum is Digital Identity (DID). As Taiwan’s authorities immerse themselves in DID knowledge-sharing with European peers, the prospects for deeper collaboration between IOTA and Taiwan become evident. With such a conducive environment, the pathway seems primed for innovative blockchain solutions and strengthened IOTA-Taiwan partnerships.
