Run — primary gates

Regions

• Is the problem behind this use case acute enough in this cluster that institutions are actively seeking new tools — not only discussing them?
• Where in or near this cluster would you not recommend this kind of initiative right now, and why?
• Compared with peer countries or neighbouring clusters, is institutional readiness for this play higher or lower?

Use cases

• Does this use case have a live problem owner inside government today?
• Has this use case (or a close digital substitute) been tried before here — what failed or stalled?
• Would a public ledger / deterministic settlement / credentials actually change this problem — or would a conventional system suffice?

Counterparties

• Who can approve or commission a pilot for this play?
• Whose non-objection is required before that pilot can proceed (ministry, regulator, procurement, treasury)?
• What route exists for an external partner to reach those actors within 12–24 months?
• Which intermediaries (donors, multilaterals, local integrators) actually open doors for this play?

Regulation

• What licensing, data, or procurement rules would block or delay a pilot of this play?
• Is the current posture toward blockchain / digital assets Clear, Evolving, or Uncertain for this use case?
• Where would you insist local counsel be engaged before any commitment?

Run — secondary gates

Delivery model

• Who would build and operate a pilot for this play if approved — internal IT, preferred vendor, open tender, or donor-funded implementer?
• What capacity gaps would kill this play even if political will existed?

Adoption

• What would count as success for a pilot of this play in your institution?
• What “interest” signals around this play should outsiders treat as weak (events, MoUs, panels)?
• If an adoption signal is claimed: propose a CASS tier and evidence rationale.

Cross-RFP / adjacent issues

• Which blockers of this play are not regional-entry problems (stablecoin liquidity, wallet UX, enterprise compliance) and belong in other workstreams?
