With many trusting blockchains as a vital tool in redefining education, the receptivity of sovereign nations to crypto is generally at a low ebb, considering the competition they pose to sovereign fiat currencies.
However, many countries, including China, are tapping the potential of blockchain to advance new Internet of Things (IoT) functionalities in their countries.
