A permissioned ledger records the verifiable state of public registers and transactions. Participation in operating the network requires authorisation. Access to each service follows national rules.
Digital identity
An eID links a verified identity to a chip card and smartphone access. It supports authentication, signatures and access to government services, with recovery and revocation governed by national rules.
Verifiable registers
All state registers are envisaged on the ledger, including company, ship, aircraft and land registers. Public entries and proofs can be inspected worldwide. Personal data remains outside the ledger; access and publication follow the law.
e-Residency
Inspired by Estonia, e-Residency provides a digital relationship with the state for people abroad. Its scope is defined by law; it does not automatically grant citizenship, residence or tax status.
A legal form for DAOs
A proposed company form takes inspiration from the Wyoming DAO LLC model. National legislation must define legal personality, governance, liability and the connection between a DAO and its register entry.
Licences and compliance
A licensing platform can cover registers of all kinds, exchanges, funds and iGaming. Compliance as a service supports identity checks, evidence and workflows. The bank remains responsible for its own decisions and obligations; the competent authority grants and supervises licences.
The national domain
Each domain is a register entry on the ledger, bound to an eID, a company, a DAO or a public authority. Ownership and verification status can be checked publicly.
Three display levels
Verified name: the verified holder’s name is displayed.
Verified with protected name: verification status is visible while the holder’s name remains protected.
Official: the domain is assigned to a verified public authority.
A protection list reserves names of government services for the responsible authorities. Public verification shows the association and display level without revealing protected names.
The models are .ee, with strong eID verification for each holder, and .bank, restricted to verified banks. These verification principles provide a basis for accountable ownership.
Central bank currency, planned from the start
A digital national currency (CBDC) is planned and assessed with the central bank from the outset. Law, monetary policy, privacy and settlement are a separate workstream. Introduction follows the first services and requires a central bank decision.
Distributed operation. Public ownership.
No single operator controls the infrastructure. Government agencies and authorised banks run nodes. Open interfaces connect services; code, rules and data belong to the state.
AI prepares rules. Systems execute rules.
Local models help draft rules for review by the responsible authorities. Approved, versioned rules govern operations, with traceable decisions and human oversight. Models run locally and data stays on government systems.
