Generally speaking, first-world Bitcoiners don't use Bitcoin because they don't need it; they just store it in cold storage. The same goes for democracy: citizens with a stable democratic system aren't interested in having a transparent, open-source, trustless voting system. This is something we, the banana republics developers, must do. Let's do it!
The first "usable" version (v0.1.1) of #Cryptocracy has a thousand things to fix and improve, but I'm gradually adding and correcting them. This version has almost everything hardcoded. For example, the Electoral Commission (EC) software must have its own private keys. This data shouldn't be public, but to facilitate testing, this version uses a private key that is public in the repository. For now, a database isn't implemented, so you can only vote in one election. To select an election and a candidate, press ENTER; to exit, press ESC (or the q key). The way it works is, the EC is executed, which will create an election with the status "Open." After 1 minute, the status changes to "In progress," and voters can vote. After 1 hour, the voting status changes to "Finished." It displays the results in real time. This should be changed to display the results at the end in the future. I generated the .exe binaries (voter.exe and ec.exe) for Windows users; Linux users can compile it ๐Ÿค“ Anyway, it needs a lot of work, so contributions are welcome. image
We constantly complain that politics is dirty, and no one wants to get involved because they would end up being part of that swamp. Politics isn't dirty, but politicians are. We should start working on ELIMINATING politicians from politics. How do we eliminate them? By creating tools so that citizens can exercise politics securely, privately, and secretly. I've been working on a system to give people the real ability to actively participate in the decisions that affect their lives and communities. For these types of tools to be truly useful, they have to be open source, but that's not enough. They must be auditable at runtime. This can be done with cryptography techniques and using #Nostr as a data transport layer. For all of the above, I've been working on #Criptocracia, a simple tool that will allow citizens to vote securely, privately, and secretly. Criptocracia is a proof of concept that we will continue to test, adjust, and improve. Contributions and feedback are very welcome ๐Ÿฅฒ More info ๐Ÿ‘‡ image
