Voting Process

The voting process in Calimero is decentralized, enabling only eligible participants to vote on the proposal. The key elements of the voting process include:

• Eligible Voters: Only peers within the specific Context (e.g., credit score app participants) are eligible to vote. This ensures that those who are most directly impacted by the credit score weights have a say in the decision-making.

• Peer Identification: Each peer in Calimero has a Peer ID, ensuring that each vote is uniquely linked to a specific participant. This prevents duplicate voting and ensures transparency.

• Voting Mechanism: The vote is cast on-chain via Calimero’s P2P network. The proposal specifies the type of voting (e.g., yes/no, weighted voting based on reputation or stake).

• Decentralized Ledger: Each vote is securely recorded on the Calimero blockchain, ensuring transparency and immutability. Votes are verified through cryptographic proofs linked to each peer's Client Key, ensuring that only valid, authenticated peers can participate.
