blockchain technology can enhance citizen engagement

Chapter 8 introduces governance issues and potential areas in which blockchain technology can help empower citizens. Create a new thread, choose one area from the material in chapter 8 in which blockchain technology can enhance citizen engagement, and describe the current problem and how blockchain technology could resolve or improve the current situation. Write your discussion in a way that is accessible by all readers – regardless of their political beliefs. In other words, focus on blockchain, not politics. Then think of three questions you’d like to ask other students and add these to the end of your thread. The questions should be taken from material you read in Chapter 7, 8, or 9. You’re not trying to test each other, but you are trying to start a discussion.

You must do this following:

1) Create a new thread. As indicated above, choose one area from the material in chapter 8 in which blockchain technology can enhance citizen engagement, and describe the current problem and how blockchain technology could resolve or improve the current situation. Write your discussion in a way that is accessible by all readers – regardless of their political beliefs. In other words, focus on blockchain, not politics. Then think of three questions you’d like to ask other students and add these to the end of your thread. The questions should be taken from material you read in Chapter 7, 8, or 9. You’re not trying to test each other, but you are trying to start a discussion.

2) Select AT LEAST 3 other students’ threads and post substantive comments on those threads. Your comments should answer AT LEAST one of the questions posed in the thread and extend the conversation started with that thread. Make sure that you include the question in your comment so I can see what question you’re answering.

ALL original posts and comments must be substantive. (I’m looking for about a paragraph – not just a short answer.)
