Liquium

Liquid democracy using the Ethereum Blockchain

Liquium is an Open Source polling framework based in Smart Contracts running in the Ethereum network which allows to perform liquid democracy.

We've build a template for organizations which want to integrate a public, fair and transparent polling system, so they can modify it for their own context just forking this repository.

What is liquid democracy?

Delegative democracy, also known as liquid democracy, is a form of democratic control whereby an electorate vests voting power in delegates rather than in representatives. The term is a generic description of either already-existing or proposed popular-control apparatuses.

You can read more about liquid democracy at Wikipedia.

There's also a really good video by Jakob Jochmann in Youtube which explains this concept really well.

What is Ethereum?

Ethereum is an open source public blockchain-based distributed computing platform, featuring smart contract functionality. It provides a decentralized virtual machine, the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), that can execute peer-to-peer contracts using a token called ether.
