Knoxchain

Knoxchain is a blockchain-based voting system that utilizes digital IDs to ensure secure and verifiable voting. The project is aimed at improving the transparency and security of voting systems, particularly in situations where remote voting is required.

Features

Digital IDs for voters to ensure secure and verifiable voting
Blockchain-based system for transparency and immutability of votes
Network of nodes for decentralized and distributed processing
Audit trail for each vote to enable verification and accountability
Easy to use and integrate into existing voting systems

Getting Started

To get started with Knoxchain, follow these steps:

Clone the repository to your local machine.
Install the required dependencies.
Run the network listener on a specific address using cargo run --bin network.
Create a digital ID for each voter using DigitalID::new(user_id: String).
Verify the digital ID using DigitalID::verify_digital_id().
Create an audit trail for each vote using AuditTrail::new(user_id: String, vote: String).
Verify the vote using the digital ID using AuditTrail::verify_vote(digital_id: &DigitalID).
Send the vote to other nodes in the network for processing.
