Oh, a project baked by a German ministry and some crypto scam? Highest trust levels given here… ;-) On a more serous note: Germany is a digitally failed state. I can say that for sure as I'm living here my whole live. Just everything that involves state authorities is a big failure. It's all nepotism, burning taxpayer's hard earned money for extremely doubtful projects that fall apart like a house of cards when you look askance on them. One IT related failure marches after the other. There are literally no success stories. It's not only a popular joke that Germany's government IT is made up of fax and printed internet pages. That's actually the truth! (We had to learn this once again the hard way during the pandemic…) So if an IT related project has a federal ministry badge on it you should be at least very skeptical. (Or even better, you should start running not looking back). This, paired with advertisement form the Ethereum foundation, is more than enough for me to assume this is a complete failure. If I would be willing to spend time looking into the details I'm very sure this would turn out to be some complete useless nonsense. (As the "five block-chain" COVID check-in app with a central privately hold database in the back-end lately; which of course failed miserably. Since than the joke is that every new government IT project needs to include at least five block-chains, otherwise it's not worth it). Long story short: The people giving away money for such things don't have the slightest clue about anything IT related. They constantly make business with the most scummy "partners" resulting in usually hundreds of millions of euros getting burned for literary nothing (besides the partners, and other friends of the involved politicians, getting rich in the process).
