"ok so yeah get Metamask, then I'ma need you to add Sepolia testnet, then..."

I do wonder though... especially considering the fact they just used Discord for this election 

are these crypto voting platforms legitimately the type of 10x improvement it would take to get people to switch from more seamless options like Discord voting? how would this election have been improved by using crypto tools?

Lol true but that's raw dogging the protocol like us crypto nerds.

The intended use case is to abstract Vocdoni away behind a bespoke UI which uses whatever credentials the base is most familiar with. IIRC that's how they're using it in major party elections and other RW use cases.

jk of course is all love with Vocdoni crew 💙

Solved! 99% of our users are Web2, they don’t even realize they’re using blockchain under the hood!

We’ve powered votes for FC Barcelona, city councils like Barcelona, major political parties, professional associations with tens of thousands of members, and Europe’s largest cultural association (~150k members).

The closest case to Nepal’s is New Belarus: nearly 7k voters in the opposition in exile, running parallel government elections with Vocdoni tech.
