🚨 Blockchain Bonanza: Trump’s USAID Plan to Make Aid More Secure (and Slightly Weird) 🤔
As the sun rises over the vast expanse of human suffering, the Trump administration reveals a plan to restructure USAID, renaming it the U.S. International Humanitarian Assistance or IHA, and integrating blockchain technology into its procurement process. Ah, the sweet scent of bureaucracy 🚮.
A leaked memo, obtained by Politico and subsequently circulated among State Department officials, outlines the administration’s plans for the humanitarian agency. It seems that the Trump administration wants to make aid more secure, transparent, and traceable, much like a digital ledger 📊.
“All distributions would also be secured and traced via blockchain technology to radically increase security, transparency, and traceability,” the memo states, with a hint of bureaucratic jargon 🤔. One can’t help but wonder what kind of “security” this will bring, considering the agency’s recent woes 🤷♀️.
In a bizarre twist, the memo suggests that USAID will start incorporating blockchain technology into its procurement process, aiming to boost innovation and efficiency, as well as allow for “more flexible and responsive programming focused on tangible impact rather than simply completing activities and inputs.” 🤯
But what does this mean in practice? Will USAID staff be using blockchain to track the distribution of aid? Or will they be using cryptocurrencies like stablecoin to send payments to partner organizations? Only time will tell 🕰️.
Interestingly, this isn’t the first time blockchain technology has been used in humanitarian efforts. In 2022, the UNHCR ran a pilot project distributing funds through stablecoins to displaced Ukrainians, and in 2018, the Kenya Red Cross Society launched a project using blockchain to record transactions and help people receive funds without bank accounts 💸.
But as we gaze into the abyss of bureaucratic complexity, we can’t help but wonder: will this be a step forward or a step backward for USAID? Only the future will tell 🤞.
