On January 15th, 2020, the United Nations Sustainable Development Blockchain Forum was held at the UN headquarters in New York. The forum was jointly organized by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, the United Nations Development Program and other United Nations departments, in collaboration with the Blockchain Alliance International (BAI), the Hong Kong Blockchain Association and the GSR Matrix Fund.

The 2030 Agenda of the UN emphasizes that technology innovation plays an important role in sustainable development, especially blockchain (distributed ledger) technology. Initially, blockchain technology was mainly used for trading of digital currency. In recent years, there are more and more application scenarios, some of which have already been applied to the implementation of the UN sustainable development plan, such as reducing food waste, ensuring the sustainable development of production and production process by means of tracing raw materials, encouraging companies to adopt sustainable ways to do production, ensuring consumers have access to the information about sustainable lifestyles, and providing legal and financial services to refugees and people in poor areas.
