Blue Orion presents a blockchain-based voting application built on Stellar that ensures transparent, immutable election results through election-specific tokens and channel accounts to prevent fraud.
Hans from Blue Orion demonstrates their free voting service secured on the Stellar blockchain, featuring three core aspects: transparent voting with client-side submission to the network, immutable results stored on-chain, and ease of use for participants without requiring existing Stellar accounts. The technical implementation uses election-specific tokens for voting history tracking, Stellar's fast transaction times for immediate user feedback, and channel accounts with unique sequence numbers to prevent cheating. The application workflow includes creating elections via web form, generating hashed PDFs as proof of setup, guiding users through voting, and displaying results on StellarExpert. Blue Orion plans to finalize the prototype, conduct test elections with NGOs in Bavaria, present at hackathons, target DAOs for blockchain-based voting systems, and explore oracle integration for smart contracts.
