Actually don’t mind if people are payed for their vote. Getting the vote out of the hands of one person is key to getting the money imbalance out of the system. If the rich want to buy votes they can offer money to voters, but they’ll never be sure who followed through since the vote receipts are secret. And instead of paying one guy some tens of thousands they’ll have to pay many people. The actual cost goes up and there’s much less guarantee of actual success

And with the security, if a bad actor votes using your private key and you didn’t actually vote the fraud would be obvious. If an entire voting block decides to sell their vote en masse then that is a valid decision on an individual basis and the population deserves what they get.
