The Case for Blockchain Application in Association Credentialing

Blockchain is designed for applications where trust is critical and there is a desire to decentralize control away from any one entity. 

No single authority “owns” or controls the data and processes around it. Additionally, no
single entity can modify the data — making it possible to have trust in a “trustless” environment.

Although not infallible, this trust and security are key advantages for the not-for-profit sector and associations, impacting a wide range of offerings including standard-setting bodies, event ticketing and speaker management, member data and credentialing.

In this book:

• We will explain what blockchain is
• the considerations for designing association-focused blockchain application
• and how associations might approach a future blockchain integration with a focus on credentialing.
