Malta is applying Omnitude's blockchain middleware platform to help improve the island's public transport system. Transport minister Ian Borg said blockchain technology could be used throughout government departments to improve the quality of life and access to information for Maltese citizens. The new system will allow users to pay using their smartphones, tablets or computers without having to go through a traditional payment terminal. Three cryptocurrency bills have been proposed by the government.
