>>>10314375 BLOCKCHAIN E-VOTING IS REAL: WHERE, HOW, WHEN?
If you can solve for the authentication that each vote connects to a citizen legally able to vote, this is a corruption killer. That's the whole point of blockchain: immutable accounting. 11 years after Bitcoin and most people still don't understand the implications. A bit of a high level and broad analogy, but I put it this way: what the separation between church(read "ontological ideology") and state allowed for humanity in the proceeding centuries will pale in comparison to what the separation between accounting and state will bring. The de Medici's didn't invent double entry bookkeeping, but they popularized it and the renaissance and the enlightenment were all aspects of the ability to engage in logistics at scale. Bitcoin added a timestamp proof and basically the inability to erase any entry, triple entry bookkeeping. I can't say if blockchain voting is ready this year, but the broad concept of distributed consensus mechanisms through technology have massive implications for humanity when you actually sit down and study it.
