Decentralized Voting System Using Blockchain Technology

Abstract

Ethereum is a virtual currency that emerged in the aftermath of the financial crisis. It allows people to bypass banks and traditional payment processes to pay for goods and services. The technology on which ethereum works is of great interest to us. It is called the Blockchain. Blockchain is a continuously growing list of records, which are linked and secured using cryptographic methods. It allows its users the flexibility to transact with lower costs involved and at higher speeds. Blockchain ledgers are also decentralized and a ledger is maintained at each node of the network. The technology eliminates the need of any intermediaries in transactions while still solving the double spending problem. In this project, we highlight the tools and technologies that run on the Blockchain network and focus deeply on decentralized application.

Keywords: Blockchain, decentralized, ethereum, ledger, technology
