Show notes

Elections have been part of the United States since the beginning, but how is technology helping us vote and, more importantly, how is that technology being designed and deployed in a secure, reliable, and trustworthy manner?

Next-generation systems need standards to protect voter access, security of the systems, and systems credibility.

Leading the charge is our guest Susan Eustis, President of Wintergreen Research, and inventor of the first electronic voting machine.

The Making of Blockchain and Decentralized Ledgers Oct 11, 2021

Show notes

Where did the idea of Blockchain and Secure, Decentralized Ledgers come from?

Today, we speak with Dr. Scott Stornetta, who is considered by many to be the co-inventor of Blockchain, about his work with Dr. Stuart Haber at Bellcore on the introduction of time-stamped digital documents and how that has led to the evolution of immutable, distributed ledgers.

Dr. Stornetta is Partner and Chief Scientist for Yugen Partners.

Dating back to 1991, his pioneering series of papers, written with co-author Dr. Stuart Haber at Bell Communications Research, received the 1992 Discover Award for Computer Software, and were featured in the New York Times in 1995. This helped lay the foundation for blockchain, Bitcoin and other digital currencies.

Dr. Stornetta was Assistant General Manager of the 125-person Mathematical and Computer Sciences Laboratory. He has consulted for many years, evaluating the commercial potential of emerging technologies on behalf of universities, commercial research labs, and venture capital interests. Along with Dr. Haber, he co-founded Surety, a Bellcore spinoff. Surety’s offering constituted the first commercial deployment of a blockchain.

Dr. Stornetta received his Ph.D. in physics from Stanford University, after attending MIT, Harvard, and Brigham Young University.

How do Regulators Manage the Emerging Markets of Digital Assets? Aug 02, 2021

Show notes

Blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and digital assets are disruptive technologies that are impacting markets, financial institutions, economies, governments across the globe. And because they are being applied to a variety of uses – regulators are working to ensure their policies are current with the use of these technologies.

However, like any technology, these can be abused. That is where regulation may have to step in. But what regulation, if any, is required? Who enforces the regulation? Who should write the regulations?

During this episode, we talk with the Director of the Digital Asset and Cryptocurrency Association, Gabriella Kusz, to find the answers!

Can semi-decentralized and open-source e-voting solutions for citizens add trust to our elections? Jun 07, 2021

Show notes

Voting and elections were headline news in 2020 and the drama even continues today. Unfounded claims of voting irregularities were common, particularly when the voting process involved any sort of electronic equipment or software.

Does electronic voting have a place in the voting process? Is it secure? Is it reliable? Can it satisfy all the requirements of voting? --- A process seems simple at the surface but definitely has subtle complexities.

The Future of Money, Governance, and the Law examines voting and how electronic or e-voting is being promoted and adopted in --- of all places --- Paris.

We have two experts on e-voting. These gentlemen are not just experts, but I would say they are global leaders in the field of promoting e-voting and getting it adopted through their non-profit company, Electis.

Electis, is a non-profit do-tank focused on e-voting and managing a community of academics and students from over 50 universities globally as well as NGOs and others passionate about this space.

They organize low-stake elections with various institutions, including the UK government (election representatives of the youth for the COP26), the French national assembly, and local municipalities.

Electis’ core value is that e-democracy tools should all be open-source, and this is the case with the voting app we have developed with the Tezos Foundation.
