    1. tldr; Chainlink is expanding its collaboration with U.S. federal agencies, including those from the Trump administration, to integrate blockchain technology into government functions. The decentralized oracle network recently partnered with the Department of Commerce to provide economic data to DeFi markets and is exploring broader applications, including on-chain elections. Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazarov emphasized that while the technology is ready, political will is the key hurdle for implementing blockchain-based election systems.

      Good stuff.

      Trump is moving all of this forward in the name of self-interest, so he can be named the president who made America the cRyPtO capital of the world…the funny thing is that cryptographic truths aren’t going to do any favors for politicians who aren’t level headed

      The idea of blockchain helping to bring more confidence in elections has been a meme since 2021.

      The core conspiracy of MAGAs about elections is they think “illegals/dead ppl” etc. are voting. And they don’t trust the system in correctly registering the electorate.

      For an oracle team, it is amazing they don’t understand the concept “garbage in, garbage out”. Unless you fully publish everyone’s identity on chain with their voting record, then these conspiracy theorists would never be happy because they still can’t directly audit the system without some official or aid processing the data.
