Cryptographic coin flipping, now in Keybase
I'd be curious if people on HN would want a zero knowledge survey and voting system inside Keybase, and if so, what would it look like?<p>The background: we talk about it sometimes as a solution to a real problem: in certain teams and workplaces, people can be afraid to give honest feedback (who dares to submit an "anonymous" survey to HR?), but Keybase may be in a unique position to let people in a group give written feedback, vote on something important, or rate an experience. Without any risk of exposing identity, short of writing something identifiable in a text field.<p>I'd be curious, personally, to see management get a yearly vote of [no] confidence, for example. Is that crazy?<p>Keep in mind we are mostly focused right now on user experience and performance improvements. But we allocate a certain amount of time to cryptographic features that just aren't possible in other software, such as this coin flip thing. We've been talking about voting and surveys, too.
