Bitfury Group has placed the marriage certificates of 20 newlyweds on the BTC blockchain. The new service was first tested by Exonum project manager Alexander Shevchenko and his legal wife Daria. They linked documentation to BTC and sent information about it as a transaction.

Alexander Shevchenko:

Our document is permanently recorded in a public database. If there is a need to confirm the marriage, it can be retrieved from the secure storage.

Bitfury CEO Valery Vavilov:

Blockchain is moving into a means of storing government documents, and marriage certificates are a great start.

In April, online broker TD Ameritrade posted its logo on the BTC blockchain in as an ASCII flag. The development team claims that the new solution will ensure document security and also facilitate the transition to government system registry technology.
