Abstract: Provided is a method and system for digital voting. A digital voting system includes a Voting Administration (VA), a Trusted Third Party (TTP), a Voter and a digital voting platform which implements a Voting Chain (VC) as a Blockchain containing multiple blocks that have “roles”. These blocks include a Genesis block, a Campaign block, a Voter block, a Voting block, and a Legitimacy block. The VC contains data that is linked to an operation in the voting cycle, assigns tasks to a specific entity and establishes rules to ensure a highly secure pattern of actions and roles. The VA declares itself to the TTP, enrolls voters, releases ballots, starts election cycles using different blocks, and authenticates Voter IDs. The Voter discloses its Public Key to the TTP, casts and checks votes. The TTP registers Public Keys on the VC, verifies signatures, ensures anonymity, and registers ballots and votes.

Abstract: A universal electronic transaction card (“UET card”) is capable of serving as a number of different credit cards, bank cards, identification cards, employee cards, medical cards and the like. The UET card includes storage elements, an input interface, a processor, a display, and a communications interface. In a preferred embodiment, the UET card stores transactional information to eliminate paper receipts and includes security features to prevent unauthorized use. The UET card may also be used to replace conventional currency and traveler's checks, and may be configured to store and display promotional information, such as advertising and incentives. A communications interface unit (“CIU”) may be provided to interface between the UET card and a personal computer, automatic banking terminal (commonly referred to as ATM machines) and/or an institutional mainframe computer. CIU devices may include electrical contact for recharging a UET card.
