Voting requires no trusted third parties and is completely decentralized, allowing anybody to audit the voting results using a block chain explorer. Vote results are non-binding so devs still have the ultimate say, but now everyone would objectively know coinholder sentiment.  Furthermore, throughout the entire process a user’s bitcoin remains fully under their own control, with their private keys never leaving their local computer.

Before the first Bitcoin-core vote on October 23, CryptoVoter will hold two initial votes on the Bitcoin-sCrypt altcoin blockchain on October 2 and October 16 to give interested parties a chance to try voting beforehand.
