2018-03-19 at 12:12 AM UTCGive a speech to my enemies promising national reconciliation while purging the government of them and installing my own people. Set up a military force to act as a counterweight to the ordinary military. Create a secret police. Nationalise the media and impose censorship/hate speech regulations.
The usual things all wise leaders do. -

Ah, you're back! You've missed a lot of excitement, so I'll catch you up. The girl that Bill Krozby raped became a top contributor and then left, at the peak of her notoriety. Enter and Jeremus (Captain Falcon) reached a sort of internet checkmate - or so they would have us believe. Dfg banned us from r/Totse and we came very near intersite warfare before he and Lanny achieved an historical concordance. -

"Democracy" implies equality of political participants, generally it works out to one citizen gets one vote and all votes are equal. Blockchain assigns "currency" according to computational power. If you made "vote-coin" participants wouldn't each get a vote, they'd get portions of votes proportional to the amount of computational resources they contribute to vote-coin mining either directly or through buying pre-mined tokens. It would be an ever more direct route to buying votes than our current system in the US. -

There's no voting going on there. They're just using a blockchain strategy to implement verifiable document history. It's kinda interesting but I don't really see how it's different than publishing bound copies of you legal code or court proceedings. Like let's say a state wants to alter its laws retroactively (e.g. to claim a law making bitcoin illegal was in force several years ago). In the blockchain system anyone who holds a record could identify the alteration as invalid, but then the state could just rewrite the history. You're left with some citizens with one version of the legal code and the state with another. The citizens copies don't count for any more than, say, the bound copies of legal codes american lawyers possess. It's a high tech solution that doesn't seem to solve anything at all.
And in any case, that's just the legal code. It has nothing to do with voting. -

Well ok, you can do that, but then you have a governing body has the level of intelligence of your median citizen. I have a hard time thinking of a national population where I'd be OK with the average joe voter's administrative abilities.
