Project Description

ElectroChain is an innovative blockchain-based voting system designed to address electoral challenges in Nigeria and other African countries. It leverages Zero-Knowledge technology and Minimal Anti-Collusion Infrastructure (MACI) to ensure voter anonymity and prevent vote manipulation. Key features include:

  1. Biometric authentication using facial recognition and fingerprint scanning
  2. Embedded accounts for user-friendly blockchain interaction
  3. USSD application for voting without internet access
  4. Gasless transactions to eliminate financial barriers

ElectroChain aims to increase voter participation, enhance security, and automate result verification through smart contracts. Its business model includes government contracts, corporate voting services, and a commitment to improving democratic processes globally.

How it's Made

ElectroChain leverages MACI (Minimal Anti-Collusion Infrastructure) to ensure voter anonymity and security. At its core, we integrate Alchemy's Account Abstraction for seamless onboarding, enabling embedded accounts, gasless transactions, and biometric signing. This makes it easy for voters to sign and send transactions securely. Understanding the challenges of limited internet access in Nigeria, we've also integrated USSD functionality via Africa's Talking, allowing voters with basic phones or no internet to cast their votes safely and efficiently. This solution ensures accessibility for all, maintaining transparency and security in elections.
