| Sumario: | As the electoral system is an essential element for the survival of democracy, this paper aims to research different implementations of blockchain e-voting systems, but also to develop one that is convenient, reliable, transparent, and secure. Considering all the security problems that might occur using current technologies, it is difficult, not to say impossible, to develop an impenetrable system as every component may be a potential failure point and exposed to malicious external or internal attacks. This paper presents an e-vote system based on blockchain - the state of the art, the architecture of my solution, technologies used and the first stage of the product. This solution is responsible for ensuring the accuracy, the privacy, the verifiability, the convenience, and the democracy of a large-scale electoral process. In this work we develop an application that integrates NEAR Blockchain Platform to be able to highlight the problems that may arise using an e-voting system based on blockchain technology |
