I’m actually a person who didn’t care about bitcoin in the slightest before nostr.

I was orange pilled on Nostr.

Sometimes i think the existence of bitcoin means quantum immortality is real and bitcoiners are the ones who will be funding and accelerating life extension somehow. #insomniastr

I'm announcing BitVotr, a new voting protocol to fight election fraud, releasing today to the public domain.

The whitepaper of the protocol is available on GitHub and has a website, BitVotr.com.

Pull requests welcome. Questions and comments welcome in GitHub issues section, and will go towards a FAQ document later.

The protocol introduces new concepts and borrows from old...

- Proof of Tax linked to public keys (new).

- Vote merging for anonymity (borrowed from coin mixing).

- Peer to peer network to submit, sign, and merge votes (every voter is a peer).

- Tamper proofing of count via pgp signatures.

- Peers use RAFT protocol for consensus and data protection (borrowed).

- Byzantine Fault Tolerance thresholds for minimum verification, and defends against network attack.

- Data dissemination of the tally and signatures to Nostr and BitTorrent (no blockchain or token required).

- Vote count by the public (like nodes in Bitcoin verifying blocks).

- Election clock using Bitcoin timechain (without writing to it).

BitVote doesn't force a tyrannical government to be honest and benign, instead, it makes election fraud evident.

Voting doesn't overthrow tyranny, only revolution or total collapse does. Step 1 is to overcome the gaslighting and make fraud undeniable.

Of course dishonest governments will reject this. The system must begin small, prove itself, and be unavoidable to larger and larger democracies.

This is not an endorsement of voting as an ethical way to organise society, but if we are going to vote, it should be verifiable by the people it affects.
