Unless I have been fooled, this THE 2018 JOINT ECONOMIC REPORT, Chapter 9 is fully dedicated to Blockchain technology, page 201. It talks about using blockchain to make the technological infrastructure more resilient, about the use for medical records, the huge public demand for knowledge, taxes and all the hot topics.

Overall Recommendations from the Report:

• Policymakers and the public should become more familiar with digital currencies and other uses of blockchain technology, which have a wide range of applications in the future.
  
• Regulators should continue to coordinate among each other to guarantee coherent policy frameworks, definitions, and jurisdiction.
• Policymakers, regulators, and entrepreneurs should continue to work together to ensure developers can deploy these new blockchain technologies quickly and in a manner that protects Americans from fraud, theft, and abuse, while ensuring compliance with relevant regulations.
• Government agencies at all levels should consider and examine new uses for this technology that could make the government more efficient in performing its functions.
