Elon Musk, appointed by President Donald Trump to head the new Department of Government Efficiency, has proposed the integration of blockchain technology into its operations, as reported by Bloomberg. Musk indicated that employing a digital ledger could serve as an economical solution for monitoring federal expenditures, securing data, facilitating payments, and overseeing building management, according to sources familiar with the discussions. Representatives from various public blockchains have engaged in talks with affiliates of DOGE, the sources noted. The department was established in response to the federal government’s projected spending of $6. 7 trillion for fiscal 2024, which Musk referred to as “wasted” funds in October.
He pledged that this department — whose acronym playfully alludes to Musk’s preferred cryptocurrency, dogecoin (DOGE) — would reduce spending to no more than $2 trillion. Given the department's name and Trump's commitment to promoting cryptocurrency-friendly regulations in the U. S. , Musk's intention to leverage blockchain technology is not unexpected.
