Application, scope & purpose
Development of a secure digital communication platform using blockchain technology, focusing on verifiable interactions and data exchange. The purpose is to provide a trusted environment for sensitive communications, potentially relevant for public governance (secure e-government communication), social interaction (private and verifiable messaging), and commerce (secure transaction confirmations).
MV/VW environment
Blockchain-based.
Role of sandbox
Allows to engage with regulators on the legal and regulatory implications of secure, blockchain-based communication, particularly concerning data privacy, electronic identification (eIDAS), and the legal validity of digital interactions. The sandbox helps in ensuring that the platform adheres to EU standards for secure digital communication and data integrity.
Results obtained
- Gaining regulatory clarity and validation for a secure digital communication platform that leverages blockchain for verifiable interactions contributes to building a trusted communication layer essential for various applications within Virtual Worlds, from secure e-governance to private social interactions.
- Secure and verifiable communication is a fundamental requirement for any interactive MV/VW environment, especially for professional, governmental, or sensitive personal interactions. The solution could underpin secure messaging within virtual meeting spaces, verifiable interactions between avatars representing real individuals or entities, or secure data exchange for transactions in virtual marketplaces. It contributes to building trust and authenticity in digital interactions within the MetaVerse.
