Abstract

The use of blockchain technology for secure and transparent voting systems has been a topic of increasing interest in recent years. This paper aims to investigate the potential benefits and challenges of utilizing blockchain technology for voting and to examine the effectiveness of blockchain-based voting systems. Through a comprehensive literature review, this paper analyses the advantages of using blockchain technology in voting systems, such as security, transparency, and accountability. Additionally, the challenges associated with blockchain technology, such as scalability and coding errors, are discussed. The paper concludes that blockchain technology has the potential to revolutionize voting systems by providing a secure, transparent, and auditable platform for elections. However, further research and development are required to address the challenges and explore new applications for blockchain technology in the context of electronic voting.
