πŸ“‘Overview

Confidential DAO is a next-generation decentralized governance platform designed to bring true privacy to on-chain voting. Unlike traditional DAO voting systems, where all votes are public and traceable, Confidential DAO leverages Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) to ensure that every vote remains confidential until the tally is revealed. This approach protects voter privacy, prevents vote buying/coercion, and enables more honest governance.

Why Confidential DAO?

  • Privacy by Design: Votes are encrypted and never revealed individually, only the final tally is decrypted.

  • Trustless & Decentralized: Built on Ethereum, using smart contracts and cryptographic proofs.

  • Solves Real Problems: Addresses the transparency paradox in DAOsβ€”where transparency can undermine true democracy by exposing voters to social or economic pressure.

Confidential DAO is built to empower communities to govern themselves without sacrificing privacy or security.
