RE: This little county in Africa holds worlds first Blockchain-powered election!

in #news7 years ago

This is fantastic news. I had a very interesting talk with one of the founders of a similar startup recently on the use cases of blockchain in political climates such as these. I genuinely see a future where the risks of violence at polling stations will be reduced as people probably won't have to go to polling stations anymore.

For now, though, it would be interesting to learn how Agora mitigates the risk of a vote being changed on account of the validation channels. For example, the votes are collected and ready to be validated. What are the risks of the votes being changed prior to validation?

Great read.

Interesting, Yes I'm also curious as to how Agora does this and medicates its risk of fraud.
As with any system, there's always an exploit. But I think its definitely a step in the right direction!
