Buenos Aires is launching an ambitious blockchain integration program to provide people with digital access to identity documents. Citizens will be able to store birth certificates, marriage records, proof of income, and academic transcripts in digital wallets powered by Extrimian's QuarkID protocol starting in October.

The system is intended to be a public good that provides safer and more efficient government services. Citizens will be able to autonomously control their credentials, allowing them to access government services without having to carry physical documents with them.

The project, according to the Secretary of Innovation of Buenos Aires, Diego Fernández, establishes the Argentine capital as one of the first cities in the world to use distributed accounting technology for the benefit of its citizens. Guillermo Villanueva, CEO of Extrimian, praised the "monumental step" towards a more secure and efficient future in Latin America.$BTC $XRP
