Using Crypto to Vote in Elections (Weird Concept — Wild Results)

TL;DR

• The Freedom Device is a safe and nameless electoral voting system that makes use of zk-proofs to get rid of fraud, miscounts, tampering, and voter suppression.

Full Story

We simply realized a couple of new approach to solid votes in elections that might be — dare we are saying it — world altering. 

We’re speaking zk-proofs, used for voting. 

Which sounds weird! However right here’s the factor:

Zk-proofs enable blockchains to validate info, with out really seeing all the info. (It’s bizarre).

Like, a zk-proof would be capable to validate your age is above 21, with out having to show your precise age or birthday. 

Right here’s the way it’d work with elections:

The mission known as ‘The Freedom Device,’ and the fundamental gist of it’s {that a} one-time passport scan is taken, making certain two issues:

1. Every voter is eligible

2. They’re given just one vote

Then, as soon as the voter is on the sales space, zk-proofs confirm their eligibility and vote depend → the vote is solid, and printed publicly (all with out exposing any of the voter’s private info).

This new system boasts a BUNCH of cool new options/outcomes, together with however not restricted to:

• Repeat or fraudulent votes can be inconceivable.

• People would be capable to vote wherever/anytime, making a variety of voter suppression techniques redundant.

• Human interplay can be faraway from the electoral course of, stopping potential miscounts and tampering.

• As a result of all votes can be printed on the blockchain, outcomes might be proven in actual time.

(The phrase ‘world altering’ doesn’t really feel all too misplaced now, proper?)
