A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A HEARING ON THE ILLINOIS BLOCKCHAIN TASK FORCE REPORT AND THE APPLICATIONS OF ITS FINDINGS TO COOK COUNTY
WHEREAS, blockchains offer enormous potential for the storage and maintenance of data and records; and
WHEREAS, a blockchain is a database that is replicated over a peer-to-peer network that is designed to achieve consistent and reliable agreement over a record of events between independent participants through consensus about changes to the state of the shared database; and
WHEREAS, blockchains allow digital information to be distributed, but not copied, making it very difficult to inappropriately modify the original data. Anything of value, money, titles, deeds, votes, and identity attributes can be exchanged, stored, and managed securely and privately; and
WHEREAS, there are a variety of potential applications of blockchains to manage the voluminous data that Cook County manages, including, but not limited to, applications in the Office of the Cook County Clerk, Recorder of Deeds, Assessor, Clerk of the Circuit Court | | |
