Over the course of time, electronic voting has evolved as a substitute for paper ballot voting to decrease redundancies and inconsistencies. Due to the many security and privacy vulnerabilities experienced over time, the past results of e-voting in the last three decades indicate that it has not been very successful. All cryptocurrencies are actually based on block chain. Block chain is based on the principle of distribution and decentralization. It is a continuous and continuously growing ledger that holds, in a secure, chronological and immutable way, a permanent record of all the transactions that have taken place. Value in a block chain can be anything. In the case of cryptocurrencies, it takes the meaning of money or currency. While in a game it takes the form of points or score. The value can take the form of a vote or a ballot while e-voting. The blockchain can be used in this article to pass votes between two parties. In our case, the electorate is one party and the candidate who earns the vote is the other. Without having a controlling central authority body, the block chain can be implemented in a more stable manner in mass electoral voting practise. A voting system that uses a more stable, tamper-proof block chain (immutable to voting modifications either by other voters or by any third party) and is cost-effective.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
