Voting on Proposals¶
Anyone with veCRV can vote on any proposal (if they had veCRV before voting began). When voting on DAO proposals, a user's voting power on an individual proposal starts to decay halfway through the vote as a measure to protect against manipulation at the last minute by whales. This does not apply to gauge weight votes.
For each 7-day proposal, voting earlier gives your vote maximum influence:
- First 3.5 days: Your vote has full (100%) voting power.
- Last 3.5 days: Your voting power declines linearly to 0% by the end of the voting period.
