RE: Announcing: Decentralized Polls and Voting system project

in HiveDevslast year

A little follow up since people were asking over on discord...

poll manipulation is a thing... so we're hoping to give the poll creator options for what they consider the important metrics for poll result.

  • Per account
  • Per account with qualifications (community member, age of account, account activity, etc)
  • Stake weighted votes
  • Stake weighted with limits

So you should be able to see results based on many metrics but the poll creator can show their intention for which is most important to them. Many polls of course will have little to no reason for manipulation anyway so doesn't seem to be a huge issue but if we provide some of these tools then it becomes more valuable.

Of course one of the best additions is to make the polls easy to find with an API that many UIs can use and we'll launch with a simple sortable table interface on hivehub.dev
