Government In A Box
GInABox
This is intended to be a first draft of an idea for a integrated software solution for conducting governmental functions and administration. The basis for this solution is an integrated series of Block Chain ledgers (BC) interacting to provide an efficient system of accounting and managment. Below is an outline of my ideas for presentation and discussion. I welcome others ideas and comments as I flush out this idea.
Although any OS such as Linux, Unix, Apple, Microsoft could be used I believe an OS based on BC technology would be best. Something based on the ideas expressed with:
“Overledger is the world’s first blockchain operating system (OS) that not only connects blockchains to on another but also connects existing networks to blockchain and facilitates the creation of Internet scale multi-chain applications otherwise know as mApps.
Overledger will address the major limitations of current blockchain technology and unlock its true potential. Overledger has the ability to unlock and distribute value and applications across current and future blockchains. Overledger is an agnostic platform that connects the world’s networks to blockchains and ensures you’re not limited to any single vendor or technology.”
https://www.quant.network/our-technology/overledger/I have not done extensive research into Quant’s OS to know the exact capabilities but the idea expressed in the above statement would fit the needs of the overall package.
Identification BC: A system of Identification to take the place of systems like Social Security Numbers, Driver Licenses and Passports. There are several BC solutions in progress and I have my own thoughts that will be discussed later.
Currency BC: A currency system using crypto currency BC solution to replace current fiat currency systems. To facilitate all financial transactions.
Voting System BC: Votem (
https://votem.com/) has a solution.
Land Title BC: MLG has the solutions for this.
Car/Boat/other asset Title BC: Several solutions available.
Business Licence BC:
Business Compliance BC:
Contracting/Business permit BC:
Food/Drug Compliance BC:
Security Exchange BC: TZero has a solution.
Banking System BC: A ledger to facilitate other banking functions.
Medical/Prescription Management BC: If healthcare is provided by the government this module could be added.
Tax BC: A system for record keeping, filings and payment of taxes for all different types of taxes.
Insurance BC: A BC system for regulation and compliance of the insurance system.
Multiple BC systems for record keeping and sharing tailored to industry needs.
Human Resourses BC system: To facilitate the management of government workers.
Payroll BC system: To facilitate the payroll of government workers
Other BC systems needed to facilitate the management of government and it’s workers. (accounting, benefits, ect….)
In this system all the BC would interact with each other to manage the different governmental functions.
Further thoughts:
Ravencoin (RVN) BC could be a great solution for one or more of the BC systems.
ID BC: Each citizen is issued a token divisible up to 8 decimal places. This token is unique to one citizen and is secured with encrypted biometric data. The biometrics would have be a combination of many points of data. i.e. retinal, finger print, hand vascular pattern, facial and DNA. Also any other biometrics that could be viably use. There would also need to be a system to handle changes in biometric data due to disease, accident and age. Once verified the data would be encrypted in a way that only the citizen has access to the raw biometric data. The central authority issuing the token and verifying the initial registration of the citizen would not have access to the raw data and would have limited functions needed to facilitate transfers or changes due to issues such as death.
Once a citizen has a token only that citizen can send that token or fraction of a token on the network. If some entity needs to verify the identity of a citizen, the reception of a satoshi of ID token belonging to that citizen would serve that purpose. As long as that entity held that fraction of the ID token that could verify the ID of the citizen. The citizen could issue a recall of the ID token at any time and the token can only be sent back to the citizen’s address. If some entity need a one time verification there could be an immediate send and reclaim. If the entity needed to verify the ID or that they had permission from the citizen, such as a reoccurring debit to a financial account, i.e. bill paying, they could keep the ID token until recalled.
Wallets could be phone, computer, usb or biometric card.
