Opposition leader introduces blockchain voting app against Putin's presidency

Exiled Russian opposition leader Mark Feygin has launched Russia2024, a blockchain-based voting app for citizens to anonymously protest Putin's recent election win. The app uses Rarimo's Freedom Tool and Arbitrum blockchain to ensure the anonymity. Although legally powerless, this could be a way to show your opposition to Putin's presidency, and highlights the potential of secure, cost-effective global referendums.
