A disclosure, so nobody has to ask.
I intend to stand again for a ZCAP-elected seat on ZCG in December 2026. This article argues that ZCAP should keep a majority of ZCG seats. ZCAP is the electorate that can vote for me.
My draft hybrid election ZIP could apply from June 2027 at the earliest, so it cannot change the coming Dec election I will be standing in. If adopted, it would move two of the five seats away from the electorate I am standing before. It would therefore reduce ZCAP’s electoral control, not entrench it.
My draft ZIP on ZCG association limits and conflicts of interest would apply to me like anyone else.
I have never applied for or received a ZCG grant as an applicant or grantee. Nor have I ever applied for or received a Coinholder-Directed Retroactive Grant. I am, however, a member of ZCAP.
The only ZEC I have received for Zcash community work is a modest amount for working on My First Zcash v1, funded indirectly through ZCG, and a small amount from ZecHub bounties after I published the Sprout recovery guide. (I have also contributed to My First Zcash v2 and may be paid for that work in future; that has not been decided.)
Payments to my tip jar are for work already published, not for opinions or outcomes. Nobody has paid me or commissioned me to write this trilogy. But you can pay me after the fact.
