The aim of the BELIEVE project is to develop and apply the blockchain features as a mechanism to improve the verification of current electronic voting systems. It is hoped to achieve this through the online publication of electoral audit tests in a distributed, open, and safe way.
Blockchain is a database designed to prevent any changes in data once it has been published.
