E-government implementation is arduous. When a region has met the requirements to implement e-government, new challenges will arise. The advent of the IT revolution forces governments and businesses to provide more effective and safe online services. Research of Dien Novita [7] revealed that the e-government implementation in South Sumatra still suffers from several problems, and as a result, the public fails to comprehend the usage and benefits of the applied e-government in the province. To overcome this problem, there is a need for new technology to improve efficacy in the use of e-Government. The solution is the utilization of Blockchain technology. Five Blockchain capabilities can be applied to enhance the effectiveness of E-Government. They are Simplification, Digital verification, Data sharing, public security, and low cost. This study suggests a framework or concept of better strategies and policies for the development of sustainable E-Government in the province of South Sumatra.
