Join the Guardians of Concordium

Welcome to the frontline of digital security and trust. As a Concordium Guardian, you are the backbone in Concordium’s governance committee election 2024, where transparency meets privacy, and decentralization empowers integrity.

The guardians generate the public and secret keys used to encrypt and decrypt the voting ballots. By keeping the decryption keys secret, they ensure the privacy of the votes. Once voting has closed, the guardians take part in a joint decryption protocol that will produce the final tally of the election. Guardians need to perform the following tasks:

• 1. Have a reasonable laptop or desktop computer with a reliable internet connection, on which they download and run the guardian app provided by Concordium.
  
  2. Have an account on the Concordium blockchain that can be accessed in the browser wallet. This account is used to authenticate the guardian and interact with the voting smart contract. It should have at least 50 CCD to pay for the transaction fees.
  
  3. Be available for a dry-run on testnet between the 10th and 24th of April 2024.
  
  4. Be available for generating keys on mainnet between the 4th of June and the 10th of June 2024.
  Be available for decrypting the tally between the 24th and 28th of June 2024.
