Implement a privacy-preserving, globally verifiable referendum to assess public support for a 1% treaty and decentralized institutes of health. Outputs must be auditable and persuasive to policymakers.
Principles
- Verifiability: End-to-end cryptographic proofs of inclusion and tally correctness.
- Privacy: Ballot secrecy; minimal personal data collection.
- Equity: Strong Sybil resistance without excluding the unbanked or undocumented.
- Transparency: Open-source code, public audits, post-election publish of artifacts.
System Architecture
- Voting protocol: Use an end-to-end verifiable scheme (like Helios) with individual ballot verification and public bulletin board.
- Reference: Helios (Adida et al.)
- Identity / Sybil resistance: Multi-factor: email/phone OTP; device/browser fingerprinting; optional liveness/biometrics; integration with national e-ID where available (e.g., models informed by Estonia’s experience); proof-of-uniqueness partners.
- Fraud controls: Risk scoring, velocity limits, manual review queues; bounty program for reporting abuse.
- Internationalization: 40+ locale support; accessibility-first UI.
Integrity and Auditing
- Crypto receipts: Each voter receives a tracking code to verify inclusion.
- Public audit: Publish anonymized ballots, ZK proofs or mixnet transcripts, parameters, and code commit hashes.
- Observer program: NGO and academic observers with read-only monitors.
Incentives and Referrals
- Rewards: Funded via VICTORY Incentive Alignment Bonds with strict anti-fraud and per-cap caps; public ledger of reward disbursements.
- Education-first: Reward structured learning paths before voting to reduce low-information participation.
Legal Positioning
- Consultation framing: Non-binding global consultation to demonstrate consent; country-specific bridges to official mechanisms where feasible.
- Data protection: GDPR/CCPA alignment; minimal retention; DPIAs published.
Success Metrics
Verification rate, audit pass rate, unique-voter deduplication quality, and policymaker adoption of results.
