So, I've worked in finTech for 20 years before changing careers to focus on Blockchain in general and Ethereum in particular, so I'm biased when I see the possibilities of an internet-of-agreements as well as mechanism design and cryptoeconomics in general as complements for real-world policy making and governance.
This to say, we could debate the relative merits of any solution so I'll simply say that transparency is a powerful tool in most government use cases. Ethereum was just a tool.
Thank you for the compliment!
I am very much on board with that idea. I work in finance and write-only is practically a law. I just don't see why you need ethereum to implement it; in fact it seems a terrible, overly complicated way to do it.
It is good though that the blockchain hysteria is inspiring governments to think about these concepts though.
On your disclosure - despite my criticism they are good articles and do get one thinking.
