Понеже мине не мине много време и все ще се намери някой да се изтъпани пред камерите и да поиска електронно (или дистанционно) гласуване, позовавайки се на модерните в момента блокчейн алгоритми, предлагам на вниманието (им) кратка публикация от Брус Шнайер, имащ репутацията на разбиращ от тези неща:
On Blockchain Voting

Blockchain voting is a spectacularly dumb idea for a whole bunch of reasons. I have generally quoted Matt Blaze:
Why is blockchain voting a dumb idea? Glad you asked.
For starters:
It doesn’t solve any problems civil elections actually have.
It’s basically incompatible with “software independence”, considered an essential property.
It can make ballot secrecy difficult or impossible.
…
You may have heard of Voatz, which uses blockchain for voting. It’s an insecure mess (https://internetpolicy.mit.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/SecurityAnalysisOfVoatz_Public.pdf). And this is my general essay (https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2019/02/blockchain_and_.html) on blockchain.
Short summary: it’s completely useless.
