Blockchain for Counting Votes
Whether for internal party votes, conventional elections or shareholder meetings, using blockchain to vote guarantees an instant & secure vote count.
The challenge
To guarantee a voting process with voter anonymity, vote secrecy and tamper-proof results.
The solution
With blockchain:
- Anonymity is guaranteed with a digital identity.
- The count is automatic, tamper-proof and public.
- The vote is secret and guaranteed by encryption.
- The votes are counted independently.
Whether for internal party votes, conventional elections or shareholder meetings, using blockchain to vote guarantees an instant, totally secure vote count. It is totally anonymous and tamper-proof.
In fact, this is the method to consider for implementing electronic voting because to hack the blockchain system, you would need computational power 256 times greater than the 500 most powerful supercomputers in the world, thus it is not possible to tamper with votes when using this system.
These guarantees are especially important when the entity holding the votes is the same that will count them. Blockchain is the way to guarantee that both processes are totally independent and impossible to tamper with.
