This morning I was exploring the e-visa section, and one thing really caught my attention 😂
The overall flow actually makes sense: Apply online → verify identity using ZKP-based passport proofs → smart contracts handle routine processing → everything recorded on-chain.
It’s fast, transparent, and reduces fraud risk. Real-time status updates make it even better 📈
The ZKP part is especially impressive. It verifies that a passport is valid without exposing full personal data. That’s a smart balance between privacy and security. Plus, it integrates with existing ePassport systems, so sensitive data stays protected.
Now compare this with
$BTC Bitcoin is built for trustless value transfer — no central authority, only network consensus.
But here, the focus is different: 👉 Building digital trust around identity
👉 Managing eligibility
👉 Supporting institutional processes
And this is where things get interesting 🤔
“Routine” processing is predefined in smart contracts. But real-world cases aren’t always simple…
Dual nationality
Expired documents during application
Sanctions or compliance flags
So what happens then?
Automation might handle 80% smoothly, but the remaining 20% still depends on unclear manual processes. And that’s where the real challenge lies.
Because in the end, edge cases define the strength of the system.
