Overview
- The Central Cyberspace Affairs Commission released the National Informatization Plan on Friday and set 2030 as the target to largely complete a national blockchain network with a central backbone, regional hubs, and shared distributed digital identity services.
- The plan ties the blockchain build to a national computing-power network and calls for the timely commercial launch of 6G and an intelligent internet that cover land, sea, air and space.
- Regional programs in the plan assign blockchain uses to logistics, trade, finance, manufacturing, taxation, government services and carbon-reduction projects to speed real-economy adoption.
- Regulators reiterated bans on crypto trading, the document does not authorize a native token, and it gives no timetable for integrating the digital yuan with the planned blockchain backbone.
- Major open questions remain about who will operate and fund the network, how governance and cross-border data rules will work, and how standards and quantum‑resistant cryptography research will be used to lock in state control and industrial direction.
