Romania’s electoral authority will use technology to count and verify votes in the presidential election, Romanian blockchain developer at Pi Squared Ovidiu Damian has announced.

This allows people from all over the world to follow transactions on the public ledger in real time. On the evening of November 24, 83859 blocks containing cryptographically verified votes were added to the blockchain.

According to the special telecommunications service, the system uses the European blockchain services infrastructure, consisting of nodes located in 27 European countries.

This state-of-the-art technological implementation aims to strengthen the resilience of the Romanian electoral system by ensuring traceability and increasing trust in the integrity of the data.

 

Moreover, for the first time, digital fingerprints of this data will be secured in the blockchain network of the European Blockchain Services Infrastructure developed by the European Commission, providing an additional level of security and traceability.

This is not the country’s first interaction with blockchain: in 2024, Romania’s national news agency published its first official news story in the format NFT, which was permanently recorded in the MultiversX blockchain.
