E-cclesia Implementation using Time Lock Puzzles

Getting Started

This repository contains code that implements the E-cclesia anonymous voting protocol.

Instructions:

Prerequisites: Node and yarn

1. cd into this repo then install dependencies with yarn install

2. Contracts must be compiled before they can be published on an Ethereum-compatible blockchain. You can use truffle compile or truffle build. For help and more information, refer to the Truffle documentation.

3. Run a local Ethereum-blockchain. This repo was tested using Ganache. truffle develop will start a chain on localhost unless configured otherwise. Once in the Truffle console, use migrate --reset to publish all contracts to your local blockchain.

4. If all steps above completed successfully, the CLI is now ready to use! Use yarn run ecclesia to get started.

Production

DO NOT USE THIS IN PRODUCTION. This is a proof concept and is by no means guaranteed to be secure whatsoever. The aim of this implementation is to provide a prototype for further development. Please contact the E-cclesia team if you have any interest in using this.
