## Description

What if the public goods (a.k.a Federal Government Assets) from Brazil were managed on chain? What if the selling, renting, monitoring and registry of public assets such as indigenous lands, buildings, rivers, beaches and more happened on chain by means of open source dApps and systems? Can web3 offer solutions to a continental country, bringing tangible benefits to Brazilian people and its economy?

Last year in the first ever collaborative and open source hackathon with the Brazilian Government and the web3 community, we experimented with solutions to explore this possible future. This talk aims at sharing the whys', how's and findings of this exciting experience, and instigate possible building paths moving forward.
