Blockchain 4 Belgium

Blockchain4Belgium is supporting the development of blockchain in Belgium.

We are facilitating adoption, encouraging regulatory dialogue and bringing together key players in blockchain, Web3 and digital assets to strengthen Belgium's innovation and competitiveness in this strategic field.

Blockchain4Belgium, led by the SPF BOSA, brings together public, private, academic and citizen players to anticipate the challenges and seize the opportunities of these technologies.

  • What is blockchain?

    Blockchain is an essential component of Web3, the next generation of the Internet that is transforming the way digital data and transactions are managed.
    • What is blockchain?

      The blockchain guarantees security, transparency and decentralisation:
      • Fiability, transparency and traceability: Transactions that are immutable and verifiable in real time.
      • Automation: Execution of smart contracts without intermediaries according to pre-defined conditions.
      • Advanced security: Protection against piracy thanks to cryptography and consensus mechanisms.
      • Digital sovereignty: Decentralised management of identities and personal data.
    • What's Web3?

      The Web3 gives users back control of their online interactions by removing dependency on intermediaries:
      • Decentralisation: Removing intermediaries for direct user control over their data.
      • Interoperability: Applications and services connected seamlessly thanks to open standards.
      • Enhanced privacy: Cryptographic attestations enabling information to be proven without disclosing sensitive data.
