Report devoted to it mentions, for example, Ethiopia, where the project is used in a pilot phase in education, where it is intended to obtain a digital identity in 3,500 schools up to 5 million students and 750,000 teachers. If the pilot school project succeeds, in Ethiopia, Atala Prism can then be used for the digital identity of the entire population and be used, for example, in transport or agriculture.

PMI adds to Atala Prism that the entire project should be up and running in the coming months. In other words, it could be clear in the foreseeable future to what extent this project will become a really useful thing. The development company Input Output adds to the Atala Prism that it will start a sharp phase as early as the beginning of 2022 and it will be the “largest blockchain deployment” in history.
