Voting System Based on Blockchain

The traditional voting process, whether paper-based or electronic, is often criticized for its lack of transparency, susceptibility to fraud, and dependence on centralized authorities. Blockchain technology, particularly in the Web3 ecosystem, provides a decentralized, secure, and tamper-proof solution for digital voting. This paper explores how blockchain can enhance election integrity by leveraging decentralized applications (DApps), smart contracts, and cryptographic security. The proposed system employs Ethereum-based smart contracts to automate vote casting and tallying while ensuring voter privacy through zero-knowledge proofs. Decentralized Identity (DID) is integrated for secure authentication, preventing double voting and identity fraud. The paper discusses system architecture, security considerations, scalability challenges, and real-world applications of blockchain voting, highlighting how Web3 can transform democratic elections.
