Blockpass Testing Reusable IDs in FCA Sandbox
We were excited recently to reveal Blockpass’ acceptance into the latest cohort of the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA’s) regulatory sandbox. Blockpass was one of only 13 firms that have been accepted from a pool of 53 of the regulatory sandbox to test innovative products and services.
The regulatory sandbox allows businesses to test innovative propositions in the market with real consumers, and Blockpass has been accepted for testing of reusable digital identities. Click here to read more about this development and find links to the FCA’s announcement of the sandbox cohort 7.

Following on from that article covering four research papers, we’re now taking a look at another four papers that members of the lab have worked on.
Furthering research in the areas of cryptography, distributed ledger technology, identity verification and privacy amongst others, the BIL investigates and develops cutting-edge solutions.
