The post CESS Network Wins GBA Innovation Award for Redefining Data Ownership in the AI and Web3 Era appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Government Blockchain Association (GBA) has named CESS Network the winner of its Annual Innovation Award, recognizing the company’s pioneering contributions to decentralized data infrastructure and digital trust. The award, presented during the 2025 GBA Annual Achievement Awards, celebrates blockchain projects that demonstrate measurable impact, real-world scalability, and meaningful contributions to public good. This year’s event was notable for its high-profile sponsors – including Animoca Brands, EASYBot, Constellation Network, and AlphaTON Capital – who lent their names to the awards to emphasize community-driven excellence across Web3. For CESS Network, the accolade marks a milestone in its mission to decentralize how data is stored, accessed, and monetized. The project has gained attention for its approach to privacy-preserving AI, cross-border data sovereignty, and decentralized cloud computing – technologies increasingly seen as the backbone of a trustworthy digital economy. Setting New Standards for Decentralization The GBA’s decision reflects CESS’s progress over the past year – from deploying its Venus+ pre-mainnet, which connected thousands of nodes worldwide, to advancing novel consensus mechanisms such as Proof of Data Reduplication and Recovery (PoDR²) and Proof of Idle Storage (PoIS).

CESS has also taken an active role in shaping global governance frameworks, leading the IEEE P3320.02 Standard for Decentralized Storage Protocols and earning Blockchain Maturity Model (BMM) certification from the GBA – recognition that few blockchain networks have achieved. Blockchain for Public Good The 2025 GBA Awards carried a broader message this year: that blockchain should serve as a force for transparency, inclusion, and sustainability. By integrating data ownership, AI ethics, and infrastructure interoperability, CESS embodies that ethos. Founded to counteract data centralization, CESS envisions a system where users – not corporations – control their information. Its…
