Title: [Reward] Service Request: Block Chain Voting Site Post by: hashman on August 29, 2012, 10:35:48 PM I offer a token reward coin to anybody who can set up a verifialble block chain voting site along these lines: 1) 1 coin = 1 vote (or 10^8 votes if you prefer) 2) votes are submitted as signed text (proving coin ownership) with message including candidate name (or voting subject response) in agreed format 3) votes publicly verifiable (visible on a website from a text database of all votes) One somewhat tricky part is making sure there is no double voting which will require some basic taint analysis to make sure new votes arriving do not represent outputs of previously voted coins. Other than that, I would imagine this to be a week long project for someone who has set up online wallets or block chain explorers. Such a site could be advert supported, or could charge fees; coin based micro-fees could be used to prove the website operators are not throwing out certain votes and to timestamp votes. Thanks! I'll also send you the reward coin if you can find the hole in my logic, thinking this is a good idea.
