"This benefits everyone who wants truth. The only people that don't benefit from this are those that want to lie to you." - Carlos Toriello
My guest today is Carlos Toriello from Simple Proof. Simple Proof enables institutions to enhance transparency and ensure the authenticity of documents by incorporating robust blockchain-based timestamping into their current processes, powered by Bitcoin. Carlos has also worked as a volunteer in several Guatemalan elections and is dedicated to promoting the benefits of Bitcoin throughout Guatemala, Central America and globally.
In this episode we discuss how Simple Proof uses Bitcoin's blockchain to secure election integrity in Guatemala. Carlos explains timestamping, its implementation in voting systems, and potential applications for other public registries. The conversation explores Bitcoin's role in enhancing democratic processes and transparency, and implications for U.S. election integrity and the world.
