Governance Voting Enhancement—Shielded Voting
Total Proposed Budget: $0
- The goal of this proposal is to implement an upgrade to the current voting process by using shielded voting. Shielded voting is a voting mechanism offered by Snapshot that is deployed on the Shutter Network, using cryptographic thresholds to prevent the front running of votes.
- Threshold cryptography would enable a group of key holders to create a cryptographic lock that can be opened if a threshold of members (key holders) participate/collaborate. This process would ensure that no one person or group of people would have access to unlock voting results early to potentially influence a proposal.
