Popis: A growing list of records that are widely known as barriers, linked using the cryptographic hash of previous blocks, is called blockchain. Blockchain technology allows publicly distributed records that capture data completely in a secure and encrypted manner and ensure that transactions cannot be changed. Bitcoin and other crypto-currencies are the most common forms of blockchain behavior. Nowadays, there is a lot of research into blockchain technology being used to find solutions to real-world problems. After Bitcoin, many types of digital currencies were created. For many years, it was unclear that blockchain could only be used to keep track of transactions in the online currency. There has been little awareness of the use of blockchain. One example is relevant to the benefit of blockchain online voting or voting in the country. In this paper, we propose a voting solution made using Ethereum protocol. It uses smart contract structures to enforce strict rules around election votes. These votes both independently and customally validate and manage all the desirable blockchain structures (such as flexibility). This is achieved by maintaining voter confidentiality and voting integrity. The projected plan shows that it is possible for blockchain technology to be part of applications that wish to provide transparency and security to the public.
