Philippine senators push House to pass stalled blockchain budget transparency bill CADENA
- —Senate approved SB 1506, the CADENA Act, in December 2025
- —The bill has sat in a House committee for 10 months
- —It would record government expenditures on an immutable digital ledger
- —The appeal came during deliberations on the 2027 national budget
Why it matters: Passing CADENA would make the Philippines one of the first countries to use blockchain for public oversight of government spending.
