Aya Miyaguchi, chairperson of the Ethereum Foundation, said at the WebX2025 event held in Japan on August 26 that there are risks in the traditional national identity model that relies on government systems, such as the vulnerability of centrally stored citizen information to be erased or tampered with in the face of external attacks. Take Bhutan as an example. The country is creating a decentralized national ID system and migrating to Ethereum, using the anti-attack properties of blockchain to ensure the security of citizen identity information.
In Japan, although the My Number card (the Japanese version of the national ID card) is currently a centralized model, some teams have tried to use it to create small wallets and explore decentralized identity applications. She pointed out that Ethereum makes it possible for anyone to participate in the development of the national identity system, which helps to break the limitations of the traditional model and build a more resilient, private and secure identity system, driving changes in the way society operates.
