Update: Q2 2026 Coinholder Retroactive Grants Vote Postponed to Q3
FPF, in coordination with the Valar Group, has decided to postpone the coinholder poll for the Q2 2026 Retroactive Grants Program to Q3 2026.
The coinholder voting protocol relies on Orchard notes to determine voting power. In light of the recently disclosed Orchard vulnerability, we do not believe it is appropriate to conduct a coinholder vote at this time.
Any vote held today could face questions about whether voting power accurately reflected coinholder ownership at the time of the snapshot. Regardless of the ultimate conclusions reached regarding the impact of the issue, we want grant-funding decisions to be determined through a process that the community can have confidence in and that applicants are not placed in a position where the legitimacy of the results is later called into question.
For applicants: your submission can remain as-is and carry forward to the Q3 vote, or you may withdraw it, revise it, and resubmit. The choice is yours: please indicate your preference in your grant thread.
We will share the Q3 timeline once it has been finalized. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
