Abstract

Since the publication of Satoshi Nakamoto's white paper on Bitcoin in 2008, blockchain has (slowly) become one of the most frequently discussed methods for securing data storage and transfer through decentralized, trust-less, peer-to-peer systems. With the accelerated iteration of technological innovation, blockchain has rapidly become one of the hottest Internet technologies in recent years. As a decentralized and distributed data management solution, blockchain has restored the definition of trust by the embedded cryptography and consensus mechanism, thus providing security, anonymity and data integrity without the need of any third party. But there still exists some technical challenges and limitations in blockchain. The blockchain, with its own characteristics, has received much attention at the beginning of its birth and been applied in many fields.Voting is a very important process that takes place in almost every country of the world and many efforts have been made to improve the process over the years. In this report, the process of building an electronic voting system has been chalked out using Blockchain Technology. This new system will not only make the whole process much fairer but will also greatly reduce the time and workforce spent over it. This paper explains the prospects on which we can improve and also talks about the limitations of the system. An experimental set-up is also carried out with a proper result analysis to show the efficiency of the E-Voting System over the traditional process of voting.
