China is moving forward more more! I won't be mistaken if I say it's one of the main leaders of crypto industry. If they implement blockchain technology not only in the sphere of notarial services, but also in real estate or education, where it is important to confirm the authenticity of documents, this will allow them quickly access the data and ensure that they have not been replaced for the purpose of fraud
What stops them from creating a centralized database for education and for authentication of documents? Considering that it will be centralized in hands of "trusted" people it would still provide valid data.
Chinese government is extremely centralized. Small part of blockchain implementation is made in order to cut some costs and not supposed to make any desicion making process more pure.
