SEOUL -- South Korea's state mint promised Thursday to establish the country's blockchain-based open platform for public sectors. The platform will simplify the complex process of social welfare payment by providing services such as digital voucher coupon transactions.
The Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation said it would introduce "KOMSCO", a cloud-based blockchain platform, saying social welfare payments are possible in the form of mobile vouchers through the blockchain. "We have served as a public company by manufacturing money and identification cards," a mint official told reporters.
The blockchain is a decentralized service which shares replicated and synchronized data geographically spread across multiple servers operated by countries or organizations. Each virtual ledger works as a verification tool, making it almost impossible to hack or manipulate.
