Anonymous and verifiable voting systems based on bitcoin will soon be a reality, certainly.
Still that will not bring about Democracy 2.0, straight a way.
My challenge is simple, why not start with a Beta version of it where all votes are public and identified?
Having a plataform where people can discuss and vote all sorts of matters in a liquid democracy fashion, making the results widely known to everyone seems to me actually particularly vital for bringing about a democracy whereby citizens decide or delegate decisions directly.
In a time where more than ever a few oligarchs control the destinies of everyone it seems utterly important that we are able to give back voice and power to the people.

Maybe we could start with a website that uses facebook as login to identify the individuals and later move on to more anonymous systems with voting based on blockchain technology.

What do you thing?
This could become as huge as wikipedia and eventually show them why they should accept bitcoins...  Tongue

How could this be possible?  Wouldn't the bitcoin debs have to develop contracts like the etherize project?  I don't get how today we can combine votes using bitcoin... Please explain more
