The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) announced on Wednesday that it is working together with the Israeli Ministry of Finance (MoF) to implement government bonds issued using blockchain
Blockchain
Blockchain comprises a digital network of blocks with a comprehensive ledger of transactions made in a cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin or other altcoins.One of the signature features of blockchain is that it is maintained across more than one computer. The ledger can be public or private (permissioned.) In this sense, blockchain is immune to the manipulation of data making it not only open but verifiable. Because a blockchain is stored across a network of computers, it is very difficult to tamper with. The Evolution of BlockchainBlockchain was originally invented by an individual or group of people under the name of Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008. The purpose of blockchain was originally to serve as the public transaction ledger of Bitcoin, the world’s first cryptocurrency.In particular, bundles of transaction data, called “blocks”, are added to the ledger in a chronological fashion, forming a “chain.” These blocks include things like date, time, dollar amount, and (in some cases) the public addresses of the sender and the receiver.The computers responsible for upholding a blockchain network are called “nodes.” These nodes carry out the duties necessary to confirm the transactions and add them to the ledger. In exchange for their work, the nodes receive rewards in the form of crypto tokens.By storing data via a peer-to-peer network (P2P), blockchain controls for a wide range of risks that are traditionally inherent with data being held centrally.Of note, P2P blockchain networks lack centralized points of vulnerability. Consequently, hackers cannot exploit these networks via normalized means nor does the network possess a central failure point.In order to hack or alter a blockchain’s ledger, more than half of the nodes must be compromised. Looking ahead, blockchain technology is an area of extensive research across multiple industries, including financial services and payments, among others.

The project, called ‘Eden’, will be conducted as a pilot, issuing the first digital government bonds using technology and support from cryptocurrency companies Fireblocks and VMware.
The Israeli Ministry of Finance and TASE have formed a joint team to perform a Proof of Concept (PoC) of the clearing of digital bonds. The latest solution is expected to use distributed ledger technology (DLT), tokenization
Tokenization
Tokenization represents the process of substituting a sensitive data element with a non-sensitive equivalent, i.e. token, which bears no extrinsic or exploitable meaning or value. In essence, the rights to the ownership of an asset are converted into a digital token. Tokenization can be used to own an entire unit of an asset. For example, one token that represents the ownership of a piece of real estate or to split ownership of a single unity of an asset such as 200,000 tokens, each one representing 0.05% of a piece of real estate.Tokenization has been described as the future of ownership. Some analysts believe that one day, tokenized systems will completely replace paper certification-based ownership systems. However, blockchain-based ownership records are not currently recognized as legally valid in most places in the world. Tokenization combined with blockchain is quite powerful, while also being useful in terms of PCI data security. When a token is issued on a blockchain, the blockchain records the issuance and maintains a ledger of every single movement of that token.A notable feature of blockchain with regards to tokens is that it controls for the double-spend issue. Prior to the innovation of blockchain, any digital asset such as an image, or document, could be copied an infinite number of times by anyone with access to it. Exploring Possibilities of Asset TokenizationBy overcoming the double-spend problem, blockchain can now facilitate the use of tokens that can be used in a similar way to casino chips or banknotes. This has opened up tokens as a vehicle for investment in multiple projects.Asset tokenization reflects the next evolution in tokenization. Tokenizing an asset involves issuing a digital token on a blockchain. As such, the token represents an underlying tangible or intangible asset. In this way, the economic value of the asset is conferred to the token. The ownership of the asset is represented by ownership of the token on the blockchain.

“The financial markets are undergoing drastic transformations in recent years, with the introduction of revolutionary technologies that affect the manner in which customers worldwide operate and invest. As a global technology leader, we hope to see Israel spearhead financial technology as well, being the first to implement cutting-edge technologies and upgrade the capital market, making it more accessible to the public,” Ittai Ben-Zeev, the CEO of TASE, commented in a press release.
“I would like to thank the Accountant General and all those partaking in this important project, which is the first and important step to creating a more advanced and accessible capital market,” Ben-Zeev added.
Live Test With Local and International Banks
The Proof of Concept will include digitizing and issuing a new series of state bonds. Leading local and foreign banks are participating in the initial version of the system. For this purpose, they will be connected to a dedicated blockchain network developed by TASE and its partners.
The digital bonds will be assigned to the participants’ e-wallets. The remuneration for the issuance will be paid in digital currencies and sent to the pilot participants by Stae of Israel.
“The move that we are currently leading, jointly with TASE, for the issuance of state bonds on a Blockchain platform places Israel at the forefront of technology and allows us to examine, in a secure and controlled manner, new possibilities for the issuance and management of the government debt. I believe that Blockchain-based technologies are here to stay, and over time will permeate the core of the financial markets, thoroughly and deeply altering them. It is our duty to constantly examine new technologies and methodologies.” Yali Rothenberg, the Accountant General, said.
Project ‘Eden’ aims to simplify the government’s complex debt issuance process and management using innovative blockchain technology. According to the Israeli Finance Ministry, the new approach will help reduce costs, shorten issuance times and mitigate risks.
Answer to Worldwide CBDC Trends
TASE admits that the motivation for launching the project was the efforts of other central banks and governments in the public use of DLT technology, tokenization and the tests conducted on Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) issuance.
This year, more countries are joining the CBDC trend. Iran, among others, wants to issue its crypto-rial. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), meanwhile, partnered earlier this year with the Bank of England (BoE) and the Bank of Canada (BoC), also working on their solutions in this area.
