DISTRIBUTED

VOTING PLATFORM

IOV is a proposal for distributed voting civic administration, as an alternative to dead-vote democracy.

About us

IOV is a proposal for distributed civic administration, as an alternative to contemporary democracy. IOV seeks to harness participant energy and channel it to create a network of connected voters, in much the same way the internet of things seeks to connect all the sensors on the planet.

Identification

Peer to Peer

A peer to peer network allows all its users the opportunity to participate and contribute, equally, in that network.

Decentralised

The benefit of decentralisation is in moving away from centralised power structures, which often disproportionately favour the central actors within that entity. Centralised governance is our incumbent democratic state, which enables exploitation by wealth interests upon corruptible actors in the political system. Decentralisation prevents these corruptible nexuses by distributing the decisions evenly among all actors in the network.

Distributed

Distributed voting, rather than dead-voting. Multiple realtime votes cast into a civic administration. where your voting input directly affects the outcomes.

Tokenisation

Tokenisation can provide one way of distributing votes across a constituency. Springing up from the crypto craze, tokens can be zero cost yet fully secure for verification purposes.

Blockchain Based

Originally IOV was envisaged to be blockchain based, however it would be a data heavy approach. Looking now to private key/public key solutions.

Globally Conscious

The collective psyche of all beings can now able to be collated as the AI dawn approaches. The collaborative mental energy of all humanity working as a 'hive mind' can be harnessed within the ‘machine’.

Open Source

IOV is intended to be an open source program, similar to Bitcoin, Linux, or Loomio, or any of the many standout new projects which leave the door open for community participation in the code.

Bottom-up/Top-down

IOV is intended for use for small scale organisations, all the way up to the largest, whilst providing influence upon the system equally for the individual, whether they wish to contribute to the lowest levels, or the highest.
