Just introduced a friend to Bitcoin Cash. Sent them about $5 worth.
When I told them all the stuff you can buy with it they were blown away. :)
By 'the stuff' do you mean drugs? :p
Well, as long as it only goes gives the voter ability to sign a message to prove that a particular ballot has been cast by them it seems okay.
Yes, such technology would be easier to sell with at least pseudonymity working.
Another thing we should reconsider if anonymity is actually a required/desired thing in a direct democracy. Athenians voted by raising their hands, after all.
You are right, it needs to be figured out. You could still maintain pseudonymity with the right process of generating addresses/distributing the ballots, which would be good enough.
I am not going to pretend I have a good-enough grasp of cryptography and bitcoin to design such process :p

@memo That's funny I get this fake Roger account recommended in "Whom to follow" :P
Yeah, you're right. Polls are great! I had using tokens as voting ballots in mind but on second thought it seems possible to use transaction outputs as ballots without using tokens :)
I'm just wondering, if eg. Catalonia could have its referendum done on blockchain.
It would be super-cool to use existing citizen IDs to distrubute the ballots permisionlessly
Memo already has a voting feature. You could probably do something using NFTs too.
@memo Respect for the tremendous you're doing here (y)

Memo now supports Non-Fungible Tokens! https://memo.cash/blog/non-fungible-tokens-slp-nft
Nice! What about onchain voting? Could it be implemented using tokens?
Najwidoczniej nadeszła pora na Telesfora ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
That would be great. Will make it much easier to share memos to other platforms 👍
Yeah, posts should have a share icon that unrolls into a menu containing fb and twitter buttons.
