THE VOTING CIRCUITS
Zero-knowledge and post-quantum voting mechanisms for secure protocol upgrades.
SOVEREIGN VOTING CIRCUITS
Traditional voting is vulnerable to identity deanonymization and quantum-powered coercion. Zeqron implements Sovereign Circuits to ensure that every vote is private, tamper-proof, and quantum-resistant.
CRYPTOGRAPHIC FOUNDATION
Our voting mechanism combines Bulletproofs for zero-knowledge range proofs and Sphincs+ for many-time post-quantum signatures.
- ::VOTE_SECRET: Your vote is blinded locally before being broadcast to the mesh.
- ::PROOF_OF_SOVEREIGNTY: A ZK-proof verifies you have a valid stake/reputation without revealing your node ID.
- ::HOMOMORPHIC_TALLY: Votes are aggregated while still encrypted. Only the final result is decrypted by the Chamber keys.
ZXP VOTING STANDARD
The zeqron-vote library provides the primitive for what we call ZXP (Zeqron eXchange Pass) circuits.
- ::PRIVACY: Complete anonymity for the voter.
- ::AUDITABILITY: Anyone can verify the tally without knowing who voted for what.
- ::FINALITY: Once a voting circuit is closed, the result is automatically pushed as a protocol state transition across the lattice.
