Snapshot to Launch Shielded Voting Feature to Hide Real-time Votes Before Voting Ends

Decentralized voting platform Snapshot announced that it has partnered with Shutter Network to launch shielded voting, a new feature based on threshold encryption technology to allow DAOs to hide votes when a governance vote is still going on. If a particular vote has not concluded, shielded voting will fully hide the distribution of already-cast votes. Once the voting is finalized, all votes will be revealed, along with their respective addresses as well as automatic calculation of results. Any DAO using Snapshot will be able to enable shielded voting in their admin view. The feature is currently at the end of its closed beta and the public beta will be released this week.
