The Trump administration reportedly plans to restructure USAID by renaming it and integrating blockchain technology into its procurement process, a leaked memo reveals.
According to a recent report by WIRED, a government memo that has been circulating among State Department officials reveals the Trump administration’s plans for the United States Agency for International Development.
这份长达 13 页的文件摘录最初由媒体 Politico 获得，概述了特朗普政府领导下人道主义机构的结构变化。据报道，除了更名为美国国际人道主义援助署 (IHA) 外，美国国际开发署还将开始将区块链技术纳入其采购流程。
备忘录中指出：“所有分发也将通过区块链技术进行保护和追踪，从而大幅提高安全性、透明度和可追溯性。”
根据备忘录，该机构使用区块链技术旨在加强创新和效率，以及允许“更灵活、响应更快的编程，专注于切实的影响，而不是简单地完成活动和投入”。
2 月初，美国国际开发署工作人员被停职，随后政府效率部（DOGE）将其员工人数从 10,000 人削减至 300 人。此外，国务院还下令其停止向世界各地的合作组织发放部分款项
However, it is still unclear how blockchain technology will play a role in the agency’s day-to-day operations. There are a few possibilities, one of them includes the use of a blockchain ledger to record the distribution of aid, making it more transparent and traceable.
Another possible outcome is for the agency to start distributing monetary aid through cryptocurrencies like stablecoin to its partners instead of cash transfers. Just a day prior, Trump delivered a virtual address at the Digital Assets Summit where he urged the U.S. Congress to pass stablecoin regulations and establish simple rules for stablecoins and market structures.
过去，人道主义组织曾使用过区块链技术。2022 年，联合国难民事务高级专员公署 (UNHCR) 开展了一个小型试点项目，通过稳定币向因俄乌战争而流离失所的乌克兰人发放资金。
同样在 2018 年，肯尼亚红十字会启动了一项名为“人道主义规划中的区块链技术”的试点项目，其中区块链用于记录交易并帮助人们无需开设银行账户即可收到资金。
与肯尼亚团队合作的红十字国际委员会也帮助开发了人道主义代币解决方案。
