The Xiong'an New Area in North China's Hebei province has become the first city to use blockchain technology for development after it launched a city-level blockchain core system for the complete development of a digital city on Monday.
"It is the first system in the world to function as a city's new-type infrastructure. It can be applied to the entire area's development and duplicated by other cities in the future," Meng Hongwei, deputy head of the Xiong'an Blockchain Lab, said during a blockchain forum.
