Binance founder Changpeng Zao and Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of ETH, support a voting system that uses blockchain technology as they think it would make the U.S. voting process better.
Considering the lengthy uncertainty of the 2020 U.S. presidential poll, C.Z. stated on Twitter that it is time for the U.S. to adopt a mobile poll system that takes advantage of blockchain technology.
Major Update
- C.Z. stated that this system would reduce the stress and time it takes to finalize an election.
- He furthered that it will increase voters' privacy and improve the authenticity of the results.
- Vitalik supported the idea by reposting. However, he stated that it wouldn't be easy.

The CEO of Cordano Charles Hoskinson supports the idea of a blockchain-based poll stating that it's creating a facility for this purpose. However, Taylor Monahan, the founder of Mycrypto, disagrees with the idea, explaining that the crypto and blockchain industry needs to solve its security problems.
