Support can be implemented once Coin Voting ZIP by hhanh00 · Pull Request #853 · zcash/zips · GitHub has been completed and accepted by the ZIP Editors. That will likely involve security review as well; I know that ZCG has provided grant funding to Least Authority to perform security audits for projects in the Zcash ecosystem; review of this protocol by them would probably be valuable (once it’s deemed ready for an audit.)

i think snapshot means from that point until a next point the notes will be made ready for voting.
and after that period you can only vote with these notes that were made in that period so its not possible to vote with same notes multiple times.
Can this be done by the July 15th deadline, though?

This doesn’t require consensus changes, so it’s not relevant to the timing of NU6.

I have the impression that most of the current interest in coin-weighted polling is to use it to help decide what is going to happen with the dev fund, which needs to happen by July 15th.

Notes that were created in the registration period and unspent at its end can be used. In other words at the end, we take a “snapshot”. You cannot double vote because everything that happens after the snapshot is simply ignored.
You can spend your coins after the snapshot height and still vote.

Are there any other consequences to splitting notes we should be aware of?

Zip-317 scales the fee by note, but at the current ZEC price, spending just costs 0.001 $ per note (voting has no fee). Also, some wallets are not very good at handling a large number of notes, therefore you could consider splitting in ~5 notes.

I uploaded a new version with coin voting capabilities to the Android and iOS store in the beta section.
1.6.1+538
The url for this vote is https://vote.zcash-infra.com/devfund

I don’t want to rush things, but it’s a simple reality that if the community wants a dev fund decision to be activated by the next halvening in November, then it needs to be decided by July 15th. And if people want a coin-weighted poll to be considered in that decision, it also needs to happen before then.

You can always restore from seed. You would need to move them out of Ledger anyway.

I understand your point and I share your frustration. I agree it’s a bad idea to move ZEC out of a hardware device to participate in the poll.
I’m just stating that even if there wasn’t the Ledger issue that is preventing you from moving ZEC out of it, you would still need to move out of it in order to vote in the proposed scheme, AFAIK.
So if you were planning to vote with all of your ZEC, then restoring from seed would be equivalent. Of course, if you were planning to vote with just part of it them I agree you’re unfortunately stuck.

I just explained why I mentioned that.
It’s not a suggestion. We’re stating that to our best estimate, if people want a Dev Fund decision to be implemented by the next halvening in November, it will need to be decided by July 15th. Your opinion won’t change that. If the community decides they need more time, then whatever they decide will need to happen after the halvening.

Hey everyone can someone please let me know if this correct? https://blockchair.com/zcash/transaction/d0d315fdf11290424f833729bfc1c7a1888682fd372d1baebbf563806479b935
No. Its fully shielded, it only shows a tx fee.

Unless you sent from sapling into orchard, but it’s hard to tell.

It is impossible to say since it is shielded.
By curiosity, which wallet app did you use?
We will have a quick Q&A on discord in a few hours.
Sorry for the late notice.
