> [@dismad](#): > > Isn’t that what Josh suggested we move to? Well, my understanding of what Josh is proposing is one where signing keys are allocated to different organisations or groups. In the diagram below, I assume that (hypothetically) the five members of the Zcash Community Grants committee would collectively decide whether they wanted to sign off on a grant application. Presumably, it would be up to the ZCG committee members to agree how they would decide whether they collectively approve a grant application (and sign the corresponding transaction to send the funds to the applicant). They could adopt a policy of only approving grant applications where all five ZCG committee members are in favour, or a simple majority… In any case, my interpretation of this diagram is that ZCG only gets a single “vote” in this Zcash Funding Bloc process (as opposed to five votes), and the same goes for the other organisations listed. > [@Zcash Funding Bloc : A Dev Fund Proposal from Josh at ECC](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/zcash-funding-bloc-a-dev-fund-proposal-from-josh-at-ecc/47187/1): > > ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/zcash/original/3X/6/6/663afb40bc72e936b0f00c88a5bf8e1e69541330.jpeg) (I’m more than happy to have my understanding/assumptions corrected, by the way.) By contrast, the process we use for the [Minor Grants program](https://zfnd.org/launching-the-zcash-minor-grants-program/) gives everyone on ZCAP a single vote. Multiple different approaches are possible: “one person, one vote”, “one organisation/group, one vote”, weighted polling of different groups (e.g. core developers’ votes get weighted higher than another type of voter) but there are common issues across them all: - how to maximize Sybil resistance and minimize duplication across groups (i.e. to minimize the risk that one person can vote multiple times), and - what the eligibility criteria should be. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/dev-fund-decision-time/48231)._
