<h2>TL;DR</h2><ul><li>Shielded Voting enhances the voting experience ensuring privacy, fairness, and resistance to manipulation.</li></ul> <ul><li>We integrated Shielded Voting on Snapshot and it became the preferred voting setup.</li></ul> <ul><li>Now we want to implement Shielded Voting in other Governance tools &amp; we want your support to make it happen.&nbsp;</li></ul> *Shutter Network has not received any funding for product development, integrations or anything else related to Shielded Voting. <h2>Problem Statement</h2>In the world of DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations), voting is the backbone of decision-making. Despite the benefits of web3 voting mechanisms like transparency &amp; verifiability, there are many issues like voter apathy, manipulation, and lack of privacy. This leads to unrepresentative outcomes and a compromised governance system. Here are some examples:&nbsp;<ul><li>A DAO voter might be discouraged from voting or from forming an opinion if it seems that the vote is moving early in one direction.&nbsp;</li><li>A malicious actor might wait for a vote to play out. Only to come in at the last minute, borrowing/buying just the right amount of tokens needed to sway the vote. And doing this at a time when there's no more time for the rest of the community to react.</li></ul> <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/Qmbt5e8yGYAWmRQAuCr2nxeSLQCm3STkp1gn1VwKYH6172"> <h2>Solution: Shielded Voting by Shutter Governance.</h2>Shielded Voting by Shutter Governance addresses these challenges by using threshold encryption. In a nutshell, the only information visible during the voting period is the total amount of voting power already deployed, when voting ends, all votes are revealed, as well as who voted for what. Our integration with Snapshot, provides partial privacy, ensuring a fair and transparent voting environment to bring shielded voting to Ethereum <img src="https://giveth.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/QmedwZiEmqqPdZHMiMy5SQwY4eFCi5WhppMPNXUfKZ84EE"> <h2>Impact and Advantages</h2><ul><li>Pre-voting information symmetry.</li><li>Enhanced confidentiality, fairness and censorship resistance.</li><li>Protection against vote manipulation by large token holders.</li><li>Improved user experience with single-action voting compared to traditional commit-reveal schemes.</li></ul> <h2>Use of Funds.</h2>The funds collected will help support the implementation of Shielded Voting in other Governance mechanisms like fractal, kleros &amp; others. Your donations will help us keep governance more fair, private and resistant to censorship &amp; manipulation.&nbsp; <h2>About Shutter Network &amp; the inception of Shielded Voting</h2>At Shutter, we initially developed this technology to take on the task of protecting end-users from malicious MEV, and this remains our core focus. However, after revealing our initial use-case for this technology, external parties approached us for more uses for the tech, including specifically using it for shielded voting. <h2>Additional links:</h2>Shielded voting in Snapshot forum post:&nbsp;<a href="https://blog.shutter.network/shutter-brings-shielded-voting-to-snapshot/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://blog.shutter.network/shutter-brings-shielded-voting-to-snapshot/</a>Twitter:&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/ShutterNetwork" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://x.com/ShutterNetwork</a>Linktr.ee:&nbsp;<a href="https://linktr.ee/ShutterNetwork" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://linktr.ee/ShutterNetwork</a>Become a Keyper: Drop us an email at&nbsp;<a href="mailto:contact@shutter.network" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">contact@shutter.network</a>
