Am I the only one who thinks we will use blockchain techonology to vote in 10-15 years?
>decentralized (impartial, no need for international observers)
>completely anonymous
>much faster automated recount
>we could even have a recount on real time (altho this would be a bad thing cause it biases those who didn't vote yet but it's possible)
>secure, cannot be rigged, one key one vote
Doesn't seem like a crazy idea to me.

If it could actually fix crooked elections, there's not a chance in hell this will ever see implementation.
Here's how it'll go down
>block chain voting tech comes out
>nextbigthing.jpg
>media frenzy
>politicians look into it
>"oh fuck its the real deal"
>first test election comes out
>some small town local that normally nobody cares about
>media circus
>somebody sabotages the election (inserts backdoored private block chain, 51% attack, smear campaign even though it works, etc)
>block chain voting permanently cast as a "pipe dream" or "it'll be nice when it's ready" technology
>voting doesn't change
>people asking about verifiable chain irregularities shot down as conspiracy theorists and naive technophiles
"Good thing we have our reliable paper ballots, eh, voters?"

Mate, it's meant to avoid corruption. In theory, it cannot be rigged.
