# **Quick facts:** **1.** 1 vote costs 1 ARCH. The cost will go to the project you support directly. **2.** The matching prize pool will be allocated based on the voting results. **3.** ARCH used to vote for a certain project will be distributed directly to the project together with the matching prizes. **4.** There exists “Progressive Tax” in the updated QF mechanism to narrow the gap between the matching prizes to all the projects. The matching prize to the least voted project will be at least 1/10 of it to the mostly voted project. Here is a guide to voting for your favorite projects. # **Preparation:** - To participate in the vote, you will need some balance of $ARCH to cover voting costs and gas fees. Supported wallet: Keplr. - 1 vote costs 1 ARCH. # **How to vote:** 1. Go to the [QF page](https://dorahacks.io/grant/archwayqf/buidl) to check out the participating BUIDLs. There, you can cast your vote to the project of your choice following the prompts on the screen.

2. Click on the "**Vote**" button below the project you want to support. A pop-up window will lead you to connect wallet. Click the **Keplr button to connect your wallet** for the first time. If the initialization process is stuck, refresh the page and try connecting again. (No gas fee cost for initialization)

3. After connecting your wallet, enter the number of votes you wish to give to the project you support and click "**Confirm**". Finally, confirm your vote in your Keplr wallet to complete the tx process. **The cost of ARCH will go ultimately to the project you support.**

# **Frequently asked questions** **1. What if I encounter problems during the voting process?** If you encounter failure during the voting process, please contact DoraHacks through our Discord or Telegram channels provided below for assistance. Telegram：[https://t.me/dorahacksofficial](https://t.me/dorahacksofficial) Discord：[https://discord.gg/gKT5DsWwQ5](https://discord.gg/gKT5DsWwQ5) **2. Can I use bots to mass vote for some projects?** Absolutely don’t do this. It is strictly prohibited to use bots or any other form of cheating to mass vote for any project, as so-called **“sybil attack”**. Our **anti-Sybil attack mechanism** will detect any such activity, and a grace period of 3-5 days will be issued for such purposes. Please note that botting will not give your supported projects any advantage nor affect the prize pool distribution in your favor. **3. Who receives the coins I paid?** The votes (or we call “donations”) will go directly to the projects. **4. Why can’t I vote?** Invalid voting may occur for multiple reasons, please ensure that you: - Own a **sufficient** amount of cryptos in your wallet. Depending on the grants you are voting for, you need $ARCH in your wallet. - Connected to DoraHacks: you should be notified with a pop-up page on your wallet that asks for authorization to connect with DoraHacks. Once you authorized the action, your account number should appear in the voting interface.
