📊 The U.S. Department of Commerce has taken a revolutionary step in economic transparency and advanced technology use: for the first time, official data on gross domestic product (GDP) has been published on the blockchain.
This initiative spans nine blockchain networks at once: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, TRON, Stellar, Avalanche, Arbitrum One, Polygon PoS, and Optimism, making the statistics secure, transparent, and publicly accessible.
Reliable decentralized oracles, Chainlink and Pyth, are used to verify and distribute the data, ensuring accuracy and immutability. Support and technical integration were provided by leading cryptocurrency exchanges Coinbase, Gemini, and Kraken, enabling safe transmission of data across networks and demonstrating the real practical value of blockchain technology for government purposes.
The published data contains the official hash of the quarterly GDP report for 2025, and in some cases, the actual GDP figure itself. This approach allows any network user to verify the authenticity and immutability of the information. Previously, the Department of Commerce published data only through traditional channels, leaving room for errors or manipulation, whereas blockchain ensures full control over the integrity of the statistics.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis report for July 2025, the U.S. GDP grew by 3.3% year-over-year based on revised estimates. Publishing this data on the blockchain demonstrates new opportunities for the government in transparency, open access, and evidence-based economics.
The Department plans to continue expanding blockchain applications, including publishing other statistical datasets across various blockchains, oracles, and exchanges, creating a scalable and universal system for securely distributing economic information.
As U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick noted: “It makes sense — the Department of Commerce and President Donald Trump, who has established himself as a Crypto-President, publicly publish economic statistics on the blockchain. We are making America’s economic truth immutable and globally accessible like never before, strengthening the U.S. status as the blockchain capital of the world. And everyone should acknowledge: GDP growth of 3.3% is impressive.”
This precedent not only demonstrates the broad capabilities of blockchain technology but also serves as a proof of concept for the entire U.S. government, paving the way for large-scale adoption of innovative digital tools in public statistics and economic oversight.
Technical details:
- Hash of the official report and GDP data published across nine blockchains.
- Oracles Chainlink and Pyth used for verification and distribution.
- Integration supported by Coinbase, Gemini, and Kraken.
- Expansion to other blockchains and oracles is planned for future economic data publication.
🌐 This approach combines decentralization, immutability, and transparency, opening a new level of trust in official economic statistics.
