POLL_QUESTIONS

Q1 — NSM Issuance Smoothing

The fee-burning component of the Network Sustainability Mechanism is already approved. The issuance smoothing component is unresolved. In no case will the total supply of ZEC be affected.

ASmooth issuance curve. Replace halvings with a gradual issuance curve. NSM-recycled funds reissue along the same curve.

BPreserve halvings. Keep the existing halving schedule for newly minted ZEC. Fees and donated funds removed from circulation are eventually reissued into future block rewards.

CDo not include issuance smoothing in NU7. How unissued funds are reissued is left to future governance.

DAbstain.

What CipherScan shows

This page displays public vote parameters, countdowns, and live chain state from the Valar zvote-1 REST API. CipherScan cannot determine individual eligibility, reveal encrypted vote choices before tally, or verify the protocol without an independent full node. The Ironwood supply shown is an upper bound on eligible ZEC — not a turnout estimate.
