In this article, let’s discover how such ecosystem can be established using the unique technology that Usechain has developed. Firstly, Prof. Cao mentioned that we need to make sure that anyone registered on our blockchain is an authentic person and not a machine. We combine third party verification with social network information to ensure that the identity is real. Penalty agreement will be signed if any fake identity has been reported and the account will be closed. Subsequently, the digital asset will be turned into a public account and distribute to the community. We incorporate pseudonymous accounts in the following way.
