Summary/Abstract: This document presents an attempt to determine guidelines for the implementation of the blockchain projects within smart city (SC) information systems (IS) to improve their security and sustainability through harnessing benefits of blockchain technology. Although available scientific sources are scarce a review of contemporary scientific literature and other available sources attempts to determine weaknesses of current IS within SC and to compare their vs benefits of the blockchain technology in order to show that blockchain technology can offer potential solution to weaknesses and improve SC IS and therefore the sustainability of the SC itself. However, this research only shows the need for such implementations and discuss what further research is required to provide a framework for the implementation of blockchain technology in smart cities.
