Blockchain 3.0 (V): Blockchain Government

Article summary image:

The characteristics of blockchain technology give it great potential in improving government service capabilities. We call it blockchain government.

What is blockchain government?

Based on blockchain, the traditional services currently provided by the country are provided in a decentralized, cheap, efficient and personalized manner, realizing a new and different government management model and service.

Blockchain can take advantage of its advantages of openly and permanently storing data: consensus-driven, publicly audited, global, and permanent. It can save all social archives, records, and history for future use and become a global database. This will become the cornerstone of blockchain government services.

Of course, not all services are built on blockchain, but they can make full use of the advantages of blockchain to make government governance more efficient and gain the trust of the people.

Blockchain government realizes personalized governance

The blockchain government can provide personalized services, just like the intimate feeling of Starbucks’ customized coffee, so as to improve public satisfaction. For example, we can pay for good public services and good schools in an open and transparent manner. Living in a blockchain-based smart city, we can also pay for the troubles we create: if a traffic accident causes congestion, we can pay the delay fee to the passing vehicles, and promote the development of society towards self-discipline, efficiency and autonomy.

Let the government rebuild trust

Blockchain elections can obtain real public opinion, promote administrative management with smart contracts, and achieve a smaller government, lower management costs, and fewer interest groups. Through blockchain technology, public resources can be reconfigured, government efficiency can be improved, costs can be saved, and finances can benefit more people, increase people's basic income levels, promote equality, increase people's political participation, and ultimately transition to an autonomous economic form.

The blockchain government is currently just a concept. It can greatly improve administrative efficiency, save social resources, improve people's living standards, and help the government regain trust. This is a win-win mechanism for all parties. When all parties realize the benefits in the future, the blockchain government will be strongly promoted. In the future, general public services, laws and regulations, and even law enforcement and rights protection will be built on blockchain technology. By then, we can truly live in a highly civilized autonomous society.
