There are many examples on how blockchain technology and other smart solutions will improve citizens' everyday life. Georgia has implemented blockchain technology into its landownership authentication system, making the process of landownership 400 times faster than the traditional method. Other examples include Denmark that has implemented blockchain in its voting system, making it incorruptible or Estonia that has implemented the blockchain technology in the healthcare system. Other aspects related to public sector and society in general will inevitably be affected and improved by the implementation of blockchain, such as energy and waste management, transportation, citizens ID management, just to name a few. In this respect, smart city is synonymous with progress and improved quality of life. I attended last year's edition of Blockwalks, the European Conference focusing on blockchain and other smart solutions for the public sector and it was really interesting, of the keynote speakers was Nick Szabo, the developer of smart contracts. Its second edition will be held at Bratislava Castle, in October. If you are interested you can check their website!
