The team was gathered within 2 hours. Since all our geeks are very passionate about blockchain technologies the decision was to participate. We wanted to do something that matters to all of us, we spent all day debating what problems everybody is facing and decided to improve elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"531\" src=\"https:\/\/kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/EI9vYXz7VaEZo5RneSfi-1024x531.jpg\" alt=\"Blockchain\" class=\"wp-image-2589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/EI9vYXz7VaEZo5RneSfi-1024x531.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/EI9vYXz7VaEZo5RneSfi-300x156.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/EI9vYXz7VaEZo5RneSfi-768x399.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/EI9vYXz7VaEZo5RneSfi-1536x797.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/EI9vYXz7VaEZo5RneSfi-360x187.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/EI9vYXz7VaEZo5RneSfi.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"> <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The problem of unfair elections is faced systematically in Ukraine and touches every citizen of the country. People do not trust election results and are insecure about counting in the election system. This project aims to solve this problem. The solution is meant to eliminate the need to have trusted people who are counting votes. In addition to the main problem, we are helping people under pressure to make their fair vote and also assuring their anonymity.<br>We are hoping that our effort will find its application in Ukraine. We are hoping that voters will be secure about the election\u2019s fairness. We are hoping that we will make every vote count!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a id=\"text1\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interesting Points:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Anonymity for Voters<\/li><li>Transparency<\/li><li>Integrity of Votes<\/li><li>Avoid Unregistered Votes<\/li><li>Eliminating pressure for people who are under it<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/8wMc2YWBE6sAF9QiKZOv-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Blockchain Hackathon\" class=\"wp-image-2590\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/8wMc2YWBE6sAF9QiKZOv-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/8wMc2YWBE6sAF9QiKZOv-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/8wMc2YWBE6sAF9QiKZOv-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/8wMc2YWBE6sAF9QiKZOv-360x270.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.kindgeek.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/8wMc2YWBE6sAF9QiKZOv.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why BlockChain?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Blockchain ensures the integrity and transparency of votes.
