A friend of mine in China talked about how Alicloud is pitching blockchains to the Chinese government for some internal uses. And the interesting thing is that the Singapore gov has already launched a blockchain marketplace for renewable energy and it's not a fintech PR move but a happening phenomenon right now where I've got friends moonlighting as energy salesman. So yeah, that's definitely what's happening now - a rich, authoritarian state with economic freedom in the making. Every year there are a number of selected Chinese officials that would visit Singapore as exchange students to study about city planning and the art of governance.
