Review on Blockchain based e-Voting Systems
- With the advancement in cryptography and emerging internet technology, electronic voting is gaining popularity since it ensures ballot secrecy, voter security, and integrity. Many commercial startups and e-Voting systems have been proposed, but due to lack of trust, privacy, transparency, and hacking issues, many solutions have been suspended. Blockchain, along with cryptographic primitives, has emerged as a promising solution due to its transparent, immutable, and decentralized nature. In this paper, we summarized the properties that existing solutions should satisfy and explained some cryptographic primitives like ZKP, Ring signatures along with their security limitations. We gave a comprehensive review of some blockchain-based e-Voting systems and discussed their strengths and weaknesses based on the given properties with table of comparison.
