Changpeng Zhao, co-founder of Binance, said that governments should track all public spending on blockchain to enhance transparency and accountability. This statement was made in a January 25 post on X.
According to Bloomberg, Elon Musk, as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), is exploring the use of blockchain technology to monitor federal spending, enhance data security, facilitate payments, and manage government properties.
