We can't expect our government to promote blockchain for the sake of transparency due to some of them if not all are corrupt and doesn't want their transactions to be transparent to their subordinates.
For so many countries, development has been lacking because of how corruption has dug in so deep into the root of the system and to be able to get into play, a technology that would disrupt a lot of things, fold their hands and put it into place as well as bring about some huge level of transparency and accountability, it must start from the top, which we both know will be hard to achieve if those there at the helms of power are corrupt themselves.
