Welcome everyone, to another episode of The Build-a-Mine Podcast. We have our first of many guests with us today. Carliño from Digital Witness is with us to talk about his work helping to make sure the Guatemalan election process is safe and secure. We all know that trust is useless without the ability to verify the truth. Carliño has spent the last 4 years working on a project in conjunction with Open Time Stamps and Simpleproof, This effort is helping make sure that presidential elections and all elections really are not tampered with or stolen. There isn't much about Bitcoin Mining in this episode, but we believe you will still learn a lot from Carliño and his experience as an election auditor. Don't miss this episode, where you will learn how these projects are helping to secure and verify democracy in Guatemala, and possibly democracies all over the world!
