It's obvious to many by now that our antiquated method of doing the business of government is no longer working. The two party system is a great way for politicians to establish a long, very long-lasting and very profitable position for themselves. They learn how to posture and pose and make tidy little speeches full of promises and age-old wisdom, but gets nothing accomplished. Is it any wonder when we know that the system was designed by people who only knew horse-and-buggy technology. When our system of government was created there was no electricity anywhere on the planet. There were no telephones and of course the INTERNET would astound them and confound them and call it the work of Satan. The best of our species at the kind, who were also slaveowners put forward a kind of government that allowed for slavery to remain in business. Even though their basic document has been altered 27 times, it is still fundamentally flawed and relies on only horse-and-buggy thinking to solve our problems. Most laws take decades to formulate and achieve a consensus and then come to a final vote in Congress, but not until it has been watered down and changed so many times, the new laws are outdated at the minute of their adoption and usually cause new problems that will also take decades to solve. As we write these words of introduction to The Blockchain Government, we are on the brink of total financial collapse. Violence of all kinds rules over our streets. Six college students are murdered. Hundreds of other innocent Americans are slain every day on the streets of this country. Inflation is rampant. People are going homeless by the thousands every day. Another pandemic is raging. The forest fires in 15 states are raging out of control for months. There is a drought everywhere, except in the East where there are record floods. People are fearful. AND, 6 out of 10 people know that the Climate Crisis will greatly impact their lives. The other 4 are just sticking their head in the sand. Throughout history - whenever great turmoil, uncertainty and fear arises, a form of dictatorship always arises because in a panic people are willing to forego their rights and freedoms in exchange for a little more security. This is too great a cost. Perhaps it is time to turn to something that we invented just a few short years ago and took to like ducks in water. The Internet is something that we know and love and is an expected utility that we must have every day like heat and light, food and water. Why not trust the latest developments of the Internet to rule over us all and give us the solution to problems PRIOR to them running out of control? The Blockchain is the most secure form of information that the world has ever known. Not perfect, but as close to perfect as anything human-built can get and getting closer to perfection every day. We can trust it to formulate suggestions to common national problems. The best solutions are pushed up by the Community. Then, we vote on the best proposals. The whole process of solving a problem may take as little as ONE DAY or as long as a month or two, rarely any longer, depending on the complexity of the problem and its corresponding solution. Our voting data can not be corrupted or compromised because in the Blockchain there are thousands of computers in the Blockchain who back up every single bit of information. Changing only one computer cannot happen because the others in the network, block any unauthorized attempts to alter the information. It can be done, but only with the commitment of millions of dollars and thousands of workers all dedicated to doing something that does them no good because in our final version of the Blockchain Government - everything in the Blockchain will be backed up by a paper trail. Our money says on it - "In God We Trust." I say: "In the Blockchain, We Trust!"

Today, more than 100 blockchain projects created to transform government systems are being conducted in more than 30 countries. What leads countries rapidly initiate blockchain projects? I argue that it is because blockchain is a technology directly related to social organization; Unlike other technologies, a consensus mechanism form the core of blockchain. Traditionally, consensus is not the domain of machines but rather humankind. However, blockchain operates through a consensus algorithm with human intervention; once that consensus is made, it cannot be modified or forged. Through utilization of Lawrence Lessig's proposition that "Code is law," I suggest that blockchain creates "absolute law" that cannot be violated. This characteristic of blockchain makes it possible to implement social technology that can replace existing social apparatuses including bureaucracy. Government is a social technology that exists through social consensus, serving to ensure trust among anonymous individuals in an expanded community; likewise the blockchain, though varying in its nature as a physical-social technology, is specifically designed to ensure trust among anonymous individuals. When we investigate the functions of government in detail, various devices for providing trust to society operate in various areas and at various levels. In terms of ensuring trust, governments have many different ways of performing the same role. The newly developed technology of the blockchain is revolutionary in offering the first ever mechanism to ensure trust. In summary, there are three close similarities between blockchain and bureaucracy. First, both of them are defined by the rules and execute predetermined rules. Second, both of them work as information processing machines for society. Third, both of them work as trust machines for society. Therefore, I posit that it is possible and moreover unavoidable to replace bureaucracy with blockchain systems. In conclusion, I suggest five principles that should be adhered to when we replace bureaucracy with the blockchain system: 1) introducing Blockchain Statute law; 2) transparent disclosure of data and source code; 3) implementing autonomous executing administration; 4) building a governance system based on direct democracy and 5) making Distributed Autonomous Government(DAG).

Blockchain is a technology that transcends cryptocurrencies. There are other services in different sectors of the economy that can benefit from the trust and security that blockchains offer. For example, financial institutions are using blockchains for international money transfer, and in logistics, it has been used for supply chain management and tracking of goods. As more global companies and governments are experimenting and deploying blockchain solutions, it is necessary to compile knowledge on the best practices, strategies, and failures in order to create a better awareness of how blockchain could either support or add value to other services. Cross-Industry Use of Blockchain Technology and Opportunities for the Future provides emerging research highlighting the possibilities inherent in blockchain for different sectors of the economy and the added value blockchain can provide for the future of these different sectors. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as data privacy, information sharing, and digital identity, this book is ideally designed for IT specialists, consultants, design engineers, cryptographers, service designers, researchers, academics, government officials, and industry professionals.

In less than ten years from its advent in 2008, the concept of distributed ledgers has entered into mainstream research and policy agendas. Enthusiastic reception, fuelled by the success of Bitcoin and the explosion of potential use cases created high, if not hyped, expectations with respect to the transformative role of blockchain for the industry and the public sector. Growing experimentation with distributed ledgers and the emergence of the first operational implementations provide an opportunity to go beyond hype and speculation based on theoretical use cases. This report looks at the ongoing exploration of blockchain technology by governments. The analysis of a group of pioneering developments of public services shows that blockchain technology can reduce bureaucracy, increase the efficiency of administrative processes and increase the level of trust in public recordkeeping. Based on the state-of-art developments, blockchain has not yet demonstrated to be either transformative or even disruptive innovation for governments as it is sometimes portrayed. Ongoing projects bring incremental rather than fundamental changes to the operational capacities of governments. Nevertheless some of them propose clear value for citizens. Technological and ecosystem maturity of distributed ledgers have to increase in order to unlock the transformative power of blockchain. Policy agenda should focus on non-technological barriers, such as incompatibility between blockchain-based solutions and existing legal and organizational frameworks. This principal policy goal cannot be achieved by adapting technology to legacy systems. It requires using the transformative power of blockchain to be used to create new processes, organizations, structures and standards. Hence, policy support should stimulate more experimentation with both the technology and new administrative processes that can be re-engineered for blockchain.

"This paper discusses the avenues through which a public implementation of blockchain could deliver efficiency gains in the running of a government. We discuss some of the current inefficiencies in recordkeeping and the efficiency improvements that could come about if recordkeeping, including keeping track of tax liability, would be "put on the blockchain". We discuss some of the current issues with transaction costs and property rights that governments face and how these could be addressed with blockchain. We also discuss issues with asymmetric information in general and moral hazard in particular that are ripe in the delivery of public services and how blockchain could be used to reduce them to achieve efficiency gains and better outcomes for public policy. Keywords: Blockchain, government, recordkeeping, transaction costs, asymmetric information, principle-agent problem, moral hazard"--Page [ii].
