The Electric Coin Company has opened a new poll for ZAC (Zcash Ad Hoc Caucus) members to provide input on the future of Zcash funding beyond November 2025, when the current Dev Fund is set to expire.
This poll is part of a broader ecosystem-wide effort to understand where the Zcash community stands on proposals to renew or sunset the Dev Fund. While results are non-binding, they offer essential guidance to developers and other ecosystem participants.
What’s in this poll?
-
One question asks whether you support any of the proposed Dev Fund models—or prefer to let the Dev Fund expire and return 100% of block rewards to miners. Read more about the proposals here.
-
A second question asks whether implementing a new funding model should be prioritized, even if it delays NU7. Learn more here.
How to vote: ZAC members should check their inboxes for an email from the Helios Voting Bot (no-reply@mail.heliosvoting.org).
Voting is open now through May 1, 2025
Results will be shared by May 5
