The post Ford explores decentralized legal data storage on Cardano blockchain appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Ford Motor Company, a Fortune 500 company, has joined forces with Iagon and Cloud Court to launch a proof-of-concept (PoC) focused on decentralized legal data storage, according to a June 18 announcement. The project, built on the Cardano blockchain, will test decentralized solutions for managing sensitive legal records across large organizations. Following the news, Iagon’s IAG token climbed over 11% to $0.1664 at press time. According to CryptoSlate’s data, Cardano’s ADA token dropped 3% to $0.59843. Why decentralized legal data storage? The collaborators noted that law firms and corporate legal departments handle massive volumes of material, from depositions and court transcripts to confidential filings. These records are often spread across multiple teams and platforms, leading to inefficiencies, lost insights, and serious data security concerns. As a result, this pilot scheme focuses on helping legal teams and enterprises gain control over litigation data. According to the statement, the proposed system will use a hybrid infrastructure. Legal data will be encrypted and stored off-chain, while Cardano’s blockchain will handle permission controls, access logs, and data verification. This setup is designed to reduce data fragmentation while providing clear audit trails, stronger security, and smoother internal collaboration. Meanwhile, the initiative will showcase Cardano’s evolving utility in enterprise environments. If successful, the project could be a model for integrating blockchain and AI in law, healthcare, finance, and public administration. Ford’s interest in blockchain technology Ford will serve as an advisor for the exploratory project. The car manufacturer will stress-test the solution for large-scale enterprise use and lend credibility to blockchain-backed LegalTech. Moreover, the company’s participation is also expected to encourage other corporations to explore similar tools, especially as demand for secure and transparent data management grows. Iagon said on X: “Ford is interested in exploring whether blockchain-based distributed storage could address persistent challenges in legal data…
