I would be quite curious to know how this could apply in the context of Zcash.

Would it be possible to sign a value easily with a wallet? Say one could sign “ZIP-XYZ-YES” or “ZIP-XYZ-NO” and post the signature some place, in a way where the signature would disclose how many tokens are behind a vote? After a predefined period, all votes could be counted and weighted.

This may become important if we go in a direction where every two years we need to upgrade pools? Who is supposed to decide of that, if not token holders? Not that I like the idea of having to upgrade every two years, but if we go in this direction we need to clarify the governance implications.
