For sure. Voters still need to register and those registrations are linked to TrueVote.
Love that. Yes, yes it did, but we'll never know if it was fair.
Yes, both time and number of records will trigger an Opentimestamps submission, depending on velocity of data.
The ballotid and userid is encrypted using the voters' private key. Only the voter can view the ballot and prove the ballot belongs to their user account.
There are heuristic searches that may need to be defended against with additional anonymizing of data.
Your Nostr key is tied to your voting registration record. The ballot is decoupled from the public key, so no one can see a voters' ballot selections.
The key is linked to your voter registration.
Yes, those are the challenges. The voting registrar authorities (in the United States, typically the States and Counties) are still responsible for voter registration. We will work with each registrar and the DMV and link the Nostr key to their voter registration.
A functioning democracy is one where everyone eligible to vote does vote, and every vote is counted perfectly. We don't have that now, so we're building it at TrueVote.
Critics who don't want to have transparent, accurate elections have no defensible position.
Democracy is ineed flawed: What do 2 wolves and 1 chicken vote on when they decide what to eat for dinner?
But, as long as we have it, we may as well have election integrity.
Thanks Ben. Yes I posted on Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram.

We're excited to share what we've been working on - the TrueVote app in action!
TrueVote is not just an app; it's a commitment to transparency. Built on Bitcoin, Opentimestamps, and Nostr, our open-source platform ensures tamper-proof ballot data. No smoke and mirrors, just verifiable election integrity of every ballot, every vote.
TrueVote solves two fundamental problems in elections:
1. Ballot verification: With TrueVote, you can verify your vote was counted, eliminating the uncertainty that plagues traditional voting methods.
2. Convenience: TrueVote brings voting to your fingertips, eliminating the inconvenience of polling places and mail-in ballots. Voting should be as convenient as the rest of our digital lives.
We believe in openness, which is why our tech stack is entirely open-source. Transparency isn't just a feature; it's a virtue. We're empowering voters with unprecedented visibility into the voting process.
Ballot data is validated using Opentimestamps hashing on Bitcoin. No "token" needed. No "new crypto coin" needed. Bitcoin and Bitcoin only.
And now, TrueVote uses Nostr, an innovative decentralized and open-source communications protocol, for secure authentication.
Technology (bitcoin) has made it possible to separate money and state, and it is time to decouple the state from the election process to ensure election integrity.
It's time we vote on our phones!

With the Bitcoin price surging today, I've made the decision to sell all my alt-coins and NFTs. Hold my beer.
Done. I'll take that beer back. šŗ Thanks!

Excellent overview by Code Opinion for building durable, resilient software. We're following strict patterns and practices TrueVote right out of the gate. Brittleness isn't acceptable when it comes to voting.
Electric bicycles are to non-electric bicycles as pickleball is to tennis.
Bikes, like tennis, require somewhat significant physical effort. Electric bikes and pickleball, not so much.
This is not to throw shade anywhere. I partake in all 4 variations personally.

Boggles my mind how so many people can fall for such a blatant scam.

Boggles my mind that people don't see Trump the same way as we see Heart.

Yes, I can get them to switch and correspond with ME on better platforms. I'm saying that for correspondence with people other than me, they default to the most "convenient" method, without thinking twice about privacy.
