One of the many uses of Blockchain technology is in the area of record keeping and secure data storage. Madeline Eden, a Bitcoin advocate, Blockchain developer and politician currently running for Congress, is looking to clean up the United States electoral systems through the distributed ledger technology.
The Need For Blockchain
Madeline Eden, a seasoned developer, and politician, has a strong desire to use her coding skills to restore confidence in American democracy. Eden has developed a Blockchain-based system for voting, and she’s determined to use this platform to sanitize the electoral ecosystem by making the votes of US citizens count and entirely eradicate election malpractices.
In addition to creating a distributed ledger-based voting platform, the versatile politician has also developed a Blockchain technology-based platform for election campaign finance to eradicate misappropriation of funds meant for election campaigns. Eden iterated that:
“By using a Blockchain-based accounting system, political contributions can be tracked openly and transparently.”
It’s Time for Friendly and Smart Cryptocurrency Policies
The Texan Democrat, being a long time cryptocurrency advocate, thoroughly understands and appreciates the value of digital assets like bitcoin and Ethereum in the twenty-first century. More so, Eden understands the workings of Blockchain technology like the palm of her hand and is not oblivious to its risks and importance in the modern political discourse.
Eden’s technological know-how is invaluable in the political arena, and it is essential to the formulation of policies because very few lawmakers understand the real risks and advantages of the distributed ledger technology.
With Eden comfortably seated in Congress, she will no doubt push for integration of Blockchain and cryptocurrencies balanced with reasonable approaches that safeguard the masses.
