Does some kind of independently verified credential, recorded on the block chain, have a future solution role?
That is a very strange choice of countries, and wouldn't appear to compare like for like in other ways. Why did you choose those?I feel it would be far better to focus on Eastern versus Western European countries instead of the grab bag that you chose.
