Blockchain Based Voting Framework With Non-Transferable Non-Fungible Tokens

Abstract

Ensuring the integrity of voting systems is essential for the functioning of modern democratic societies. However, election interference and fraud remain persistent issues that threaten to undermine public trust in the democratic process. While blockchain technology has the potential to improve traceability and transparency in voting systems, the current use of fungible tokens in blockchain-based voting systems leaves them vulnerable to manipulation through vote buying and selling. To address this problem, this research proposes the use of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) with smart contract functions for voting systems. This novel approach effectively represents complicated operations and ensures integrity, security, and privacy. in addition, it prevents fraud, corruption, tampering, and counterfeiting. The research will develop a framework and analyse the use of NFTs in voting systems to improve the integrity of the democratic process.
