Bhutan Migrates National ID to Ethereum

Bhutan is moving its self-sovereign ID system from Polygon to Ethereum, allowing its nearly 800,000 residents to verify identities and access government services.

The integration is complete, and full migration of credentials is expected by Q1 2026, making Bhutan the first nation to adopt Ethereum for a national ID system.
