The candidates took part in a community call, during which they introduced themselves, and responded to questions from the Zcash community. FPF encourages you to watch the recording of the call on Youtube, to get to know the candidates before you decide who to vote for.

The election poll is live, and will close at 20:00 UTC on Thursday, December 18th.

You should have already received an email from Zcash Foundation with instructions on how to vote. If you have not received an email by tomorrow, check your Spam folder for an email from election@siv.org. If you still can’t find the email, please contact zcap-poll-help@zfnd.org

As with previous polls, the election will be decided by approval voting. The poll will allow you to indicate which of the 17 candidates you approve of, and you are allowed to indicate approval for as many candidates as you choose. The three candidates who receive the most approvals by the time the poll closes will become the new ZCG Committee members. They will serve a one-year term, ending on December 31, 2026. Committee members may stand for re-election at the end of their term.

Please make sure you check your spam filter if you don’t see your ballot in your inbox.

Kind regards,

FPF on behalf of the Zcash Community Grants Committee (ZCG)

Is it all community members that can vote ??

You need to be a member of ZCAP to vote. To become a member you need to meet the eligibility requirements. It’s too late for this vote but there will likely be multiple ZCAP votes in 2026 so it’s worth checking out the steps and either requesting to be added or working towards eligibility over the coming months.
