Detailed voting guidelines >   Voting Tutorial Video > Voting Guide (pdf) > Voting Period (for 3rd round of screening): May 15th - 22nd, 2023. The voting ticket used here is  vcDORA,  short for “ voice credit DORA ”, free community governance credit generated by  staking $DORA tokens . vcDORA is the general non-transferable voice credit for DORA community governance, and the amount of vcDORA associated with an address is related to the amount of DORA staked, the duration of staking, and time elapsed since the initial staking date. It has following features: Decayd spontaneously and linearly: the total amount of vcDORA a staker has will gradually be reduced to 0 at the end of staking period. Please stake at a reasonable time t ensure that you have sufficient vcDORA for voting . Non-transferable: vcDORA is designed to grant the governance credit to the stakers (the staking addresses), therefore  it’s exclusive (or in popular term “soul-bound”) to the staker and is not allowed to be transferred . Irrevocable: Staking is not allowed to be cancelled because it’s based on interactions with a smart contract. But it’s ok to increase staking amount or to prolong the staking period to get more vcDORA.
