Blockchain adoption is still happening amidst the bear market. Buenos Aires, Argentina will begin rolling out a blockchain-based and open-source digital identity protocol, QuarkID, using ethereum layer 2 zkSync

Even though we are in the bear market price wise, worldwide adoption is still happening. Buenos Aires plans to give the power to it's citizen regarding ownership of certain official documents.

Buenos Aires citizens will be able to download the protocol’s native wallet to claim essential personal documents such as birth and marriage certificates, according to a statement on Wednesday.

QuarkID will be using the zksync layer 2.

Built atop Matter Labs’ tech stack, the QuarkID wallet takes advantage of zkSync Era’s blockchain framework for consolidated document storage. ZkSync Era serves as the settlement layer for the QuarkID platform, ensuring the proper ownership of each stored document.

It feels good to see adoption happening worldwide. This should give us even more hope that blockchain is here to stay and isn't a fad.
