Episode 18: Blockchain in Public sector - Part 11 (Combating Corruption)

How to solve a problem like corruption?

Corruption is strongly associated with opaque, hidden transactions, distorting of documents and records. Blockchain provides transparency, and immutability. Corruption is associated with centralization and misuse of power - a strong link is observed between number of intermediaries and corruption. And Blockchain is all about decentralization. So, can blockchain help curb corruption and instill trust in public services? Possibly so. 

A look at how blockchain can potentially serve as a strong anti-corruption instrument - in this 11^th episode of Blockchain in Public sector series.

Welcome to the Blockchain Hustle where I take a look at some interesting plays of how blockchain technology is opening up new business vistas across multiple industries.
