Punkpoll Platform
What is Punkpoll Platform?
PUNKPOLL is a decentralized platform for voting and public opinion surveys that anyone, anywhere in the world, can easily participate in and create.
The platform develops and provides decentralized voting services using Avalanche blockchain technology, particularly through its innovative VoteNFT smart contract system. The primary goal of PUNKPOLL is to enhance individual rights and advance democratic practices by offering an accessible and secure voting system.
PUNKPOLL operates a "Voting with Two Tokens" mechanism: voting tokens verify voter eligibility and maintain the security and integrity of the voting process, while utility tokens provide incentives, rewards, and voting receipts. These complementary tokens ensure coercion resistance, vote integrity, and transparency in a decentralized environment.
The decentralized voting system incorporates a monolithic VoteNFT smart contract architecture designed to optimize gas efficiency and simplify deployment. Key features include immutability of rules through immutable variables, gas abstraction using trusted forwarders (ERC2771Context), and atomic execution for NFT retrieval and reward distribution within single function calls. Additionally, data integrity is assured by recording off-chain data hashes (ipfsHash) on-chain, enabling trust-minimized, tamper-proof, and cost-efficient decentralized data collection.
PUNKPOLL issues PUNK tokens with utility functions to facilitate global usability. These tokens are mined through social graph user authentication, contributing to ecosystem growth. All votes and polls utilize PUNK tokens, rewarding participants and providing verifiable receipts. This incentive mechanism promotes active participation and maintains voting integrity.
By leveraging Avalanche's blockchain and innovative smart contract solutions, PUNKPOLL addresses limitations inherent in traditional voting systems, promoting direct democracy, improving democratic processes, and enhancing individual rights globally.
