Tsubuka, one of the cities in Japan was chosen by the Japanese government become a city of science, and a few days ago, the city government there conducted an experiment to implement a voting system with blockchain.
and the experiment was successful, the voting used identity card verification in a decentralized network typology.

this is an example that blockchain will become part of our lives. blockchain will have an important role now and in the future.

in my opinion, next is Venezuela that will create new innovations and changes in the crypto world.
I am not so sure that I like the idea of voting using the blockchain, if you use the blockchain then that means that every single vote is visible and it could be possible to tell what was your vote, and there is a reason of why voting is supposed to be secret so you cannot be coerced into voting for someone, so I really do not like the idea of using the blockchain for that purpose.
