From the Facebook page of His Royal Majesty Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, King of Bhutan:

    "13 October 2025 –

    Bhutan has successfully integrated the National Digital Identity (NDI) platform with the Ethereum blockchain. His Royal Highness The Gyalsey graced the announcement event held today.

    The integration marks a historic milestone in Bhutan’s progress toward digital sovereignty.

    Bhutan NDI was launched in October 2023 by His Royal Highness The Gyalsey, who became Bhutan’s first digital citizen. With NDI, Bhutan became the first nation in the world to implement self-sovereign identity at the national level.

    Today’s event was attended by Prime Minister Lyonchen Tshering Tobgay, the Secretary of GovTech, the Chairperson of Druk Holding and Investments, Ethereum Co-Founder Vitalik Buterin, and Ethereum Foundation President Aya Miyaguchi."

    In my personal opinion, this makes Bhutan an even more amazing place on Earth. The combo of environmental stewardship plus advancements in adoption of blockchain technology.
