Having blockchain technology installed into government systems would help a lot as there are so many people in government that are not doing anything subtantive yet they are getting paid with huge sums of money. Countries in Africa are at a great fault when it comes to this. There are so many corruption cases which can be solved or could have been prevented if their system were operating with blockchain technology. Corruption can really be checked with the use of blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies.
Lol, you think Africa wants to get out of this corrupt state they have been since their fore fathers? I think the best you can ever take to really kill the vision of blockchain technology or get African government to declare cryptocurrency illegal is to let them know that cryptocurrency has the ability to curb corruption when being implemented and used for their system.

When we are talking of blockchain technology, Africa should be the least of people that we see accept the technology, I think Europe and Asia will do better in this regard. Look at America, I cannot believe that with their level of technology know how, trump could still be fighting against cryptocurrency despite the fact that he knows the benefit of it to both him, his country and the citizens.

And transparency is well needed in government today, democracy is now a farce as leaders turn dictators and systematically through corruption impoverish members of their community.
Blockchain technology can help nip the problem in the bud, by reflecting the actual outcome of elections, and put in the leaders the people choose, government tend to manipulate election results, but with the technology it becomes highly impossible to do as and also to embezzle funds as all will be recorded in the system.
Until recently, I believed that the blockchain technology could actually influence the elections in different countries.  But if we are talking about democratic countries, then there will not be any problems with voting there.  And if we are talking about dictatorial countries, then no blockchain will help.  Although there is a very big advantage of the blockchain for security and the lack of access of hackers to the data of the election sites servers.  Perhaps when using the blockchain, there will no longer be such a situation when Russian hackers were accused of interfering in the election of the president of the United States, Donald Trump.

Do you really think the government will like to integrate the blockchain technology to their system? Here I am talking about countries with corrupted government. They would never wan't a transparent system or else how would they do their under the table jobs? Your second point which is freedom of information is also another point were the corrupted government would never want. If the have access to the details of how the government spends their, many questions will rise against them.
On other hand, if the government is actually not corrupted and wants the betterment of the citizen, then implementing this technology will be helpful and will also gain peoples trust.

Blockchain provides faster and reliable services when it is integrated  into government and it will likely improve the performances of every department or agency. In my country, the agency that runs supervises national elections is planning to use blockchain in the automated election to prevent possible errors and misfunctions during counting and transmisdions of votes. I also believe that governments in other oart of world have also this kind of idea of blockchain integration and a significant numbers of them are planning to use it in the future.

The fact that the blockchain today is not only being tested but also being introduced by various financial structures and systems, including in the system of government of many countries.  But it seems to me that this does not apply to cryptocurrencies, because only centralized currencies can be officially accepted by government institutions, and all other cryptocurrencies will be used under different conditions.

I think the sad thing about putting something good in government is that if you give the power to a bad person it doesn't matter what they do with it, they will use it for their bad agenda all around no matter what type of safe guards you put around them.

I live in a nation that literally had democratic power balance just 10-15 years ago and the dictator we have managed to make it such that he would be the only power and he could appoint anything he wants, which means if people elect a bad person it doesn't matter if you give him the power of blockchain or not, he would fake it and even 51% attack it himself just to make it show things he wants it to show instead of making it decentralized and being transparent towards the public in order to be more fair and show what he does.

then, the crypto market will be no different from the stock market. businesses need to have annual financial statements and a lot of things.
Although when blockchain integrated with the government will cause many positive effects, there will also be many negative effects.
No one wants to invest in crypto anymore, they will switch to investing in gold or securities to increase their profit.

I am truly excited about this thing. Integrating blockchain technology in government is something that will unite crypto worlds to the governments. In this case, it will be a beneficial to the government if this advanced technology will be used inside their system. Convenience in data storing and it will build transparent networks inside the system which makes it a good step to prevent corrupt officials.

I think you spoiled everything by mentioning anonymity. If Bitcoin is going to make everything anonymous, then how does that make up for transparency as well?

we are only talking about blockchain here and we arent talking about cryptos  . afaik blockchain technology is not anonymous and you can see all the transactions that are put in it while cryptos are the ones that are anonymous because you can opt to hide your transaction using mixers or using a fully anonymous coins .

blockchain tech is really helpful in the government system because it can lessen corruption and  we can enjoy a fair election  . cant wait to see this happen  .

That means that everyone will be doing whatever they wish to do without being caught because they are anonymous. You will only be seeing their transactions recorded but you wouldn't know what was done or who was behind it, so that doesn't make any sense. But trust me, if the government decides to be part of this, you will not remain anonymous any longer and everything is going to change.

It is definitely a good way using it in government and there is a bad way of using it. For example, if Russia decides to interrupt a countries economy and want to ruin it they will be capable of buying crypto with Russian fiat money (no idea what its called) and get bitcoin with it from the people of Russia who wants to sell theirs and make them bitcoin rich or Russian fiat money rich, whereas they can cash out in some other country they want to ruin while taking their national money from them and bring it back to Russia and sell it for Russian money making that countries money weaker against Russian money.

So, as you can see blockchain at the hands of a bad person or a government can still be bad, it all depends on how you want to use it and why you want to use it.

I am not sure whether any government will accept to provide transparency to their citizens and hence  these sort of benefits provided by the blockchain technology will be neglected by the government and if you look closely the main countries that has already banned or planning to ban bitcoin are third world countries which are corrupted to the core and they might want to reject the entire idea of transparency.
Supposed that Bitcoin is going to be mainstream, the governments must provide transparency if they want to survive. Corrupt governments will be likely to be in a self-destruction mode if they don't want to change their behavior. As we saw from North Korea and the Middle East political and economics retardation, it's a matter of when they will repair their broken system.

Basically if government integrates blockchain into their systems it will be easier for them to track everything in a point of illegal activities where basically they will know everything that is bad to each countries economy considering false bills, corruptions, every kind of fraudulent activities.

In other way it would help ease the legalizations for each country where the acceptance of cryptocurrencies would probabily be helped out and approved in a faster way if the government see that it was beneficial for those countries and there were not so many illegal activities.
government will create transparency in their bureaucracy.citizen will be glad with this progress, they could monitor all government activities in order to prevent corruption or other fraud activities.and also blockchain integration will give them efficiency in data tracking.

Transparency and accountability should be the main benefit for governments to use blockchain technology. However, I don't know which blockchain that is suitable for this purpose.
BTC might be more suitable for a store of value, to replace gold, even though many people argue about this idea. People like Peter Schiff lol
I am not sure whether any government will accept to provide transparency to their citizens and hence  these sort of benefits provided by the blockchain technology will be neglected by the government and if you look closely the main countries that has already banned or planning to ban bitcoin are third world countries which are corrupted to the core and they might want to reject the entire idea of transparency.
Bitcoin is not just a store of value, if it is not used as a transaction platform globally then there is no point in seeing them as a store of value, it will be just a speculative market with no base.

I'm imagining using blockchain in election. Wow! It could be an amazing access for all voters to have a transparent and no fraud result. Well, in my readings since then every election has an issue in the results of voting. Its quite annoying. Why not integrate blockchain and see what's the result.
indeed this has been discussed by bitcoiners, who are smart if they use the blockchain for elections. I think it will be faster and safer for the calculation. and there seems to be no more cheating, hopefully the government has thoughts in this direction


It would be useful though but there might be a slight or more problem need to discuss or fix first before they could actually use it during the election day. If the government would intervene in implementing this, then i'm sure we know what they were planning. Let the blockchain spread more to give awareness to the people and to the people inside the palace.

With time, the government will have to adopt the blockchain for its bureaucratic process to foster transparency in their system, but some government of nations are reluctant about integrating blockchain to their day to day workflow since this will almost eliminate corruption and entrench transparency and accountability.  The government must move on with the new technological advancement and look beyond personal gain.
