Blockchain Technologies Corp is the brainchild of Nick Spanos, and responsible for several innovative platforms including D.A.V.E Bitcoin ATM, Blockchain Apparatus: Custom Development Blockchain Platform and VoteWatcher.
CryptoSlate recently spoke with a representative of VoteWatcher to get a better understanding of how they aim to change the electoral process by incorporating blockchain technology.
It's no secret that more companies and government agencies are aiming to integrate blockchain technology into the voting system.
In the past two weeks alone we have covered the use or 'lack of' blockchain technology in the Sierra Leone elections as well as Russia and West Virginia who are looking at piloting projects.
VoteWatcher aims to bring transparency and efficiency to the voting system.
"Bring complete transparency to the modern electoral system and empower every voice by providing the most technologically advanced, reliable and secure voting mechanism in the world."
Once the voting machine has scanned the paper ballot, the voting unit is transferred to their chosen candidate on the blockchain.
In developing nations, there is a genuine problem with vote tampering and a lack of transparency in elections.
Blockchain technology and voting is a decentralized match made in heaven.
"Blockchain voting can be used in both the corporate and nonprofit world, from fun applications like fan voting for All Star Athletic teams to serious business applications like proxy elections and shareholder votes. The sky is the limit when it comes to applications of blockchain voting. If you dream it, we can build it."
