C Section | How to vote in governance if your Voting PrivateKey is imported?

Important Preliminaries - Do not skip this section at any rate!

Please read them carefully, we mean it.

Before proceeding, it is important to check whether the QT wallet being used contains the 100,000 SYS collateral. To prevent accidental spending of collateral funds —which would result in losing seniority— it is essential to verify that the collateral transaction is locked in QT.

To check and do it follow the steps in the following tutorial:

https://support.syscoin.org/t/how-to-make-sure-your-masternode-collateral-is-locked-in-qt/735


This tutorial is divided into several sections interconnected through different posts.
The user can jump from one post to another depending on the results obtained in each step.
In each section, the result of the step performed will indicate to the user which is the next section to consult with a text like “proceed to Section X”, providing a direct link to continue.

At the end of each post, you will find links to all parts of the tutorial.


C. How to vote in governance if your Voting PrivateKey is imported?

If everything is set up correctly, follow these steps to cast your vote:

  1. Identify the governance proposal you wish to vote on. (You can find proposal details in the official community channels).

  2. Open the debugging console in Syscoin QT. Navigate to [Window > Console].

  3. Unlock your wallet using your password with the following command:

    • walletpassphrase "your_password_here" unlocked_seconds
      • Example:
        • walletpassphrase "mypassword1234" 60
  4. Cast your vote using the command below, replacing ID_PROPOSAL with the proposal ID provided by the community and selecting yes, no or abstain:

    • gobject_vote_many ID_PROPOSAL funding yes/no/abstain
      • Example:
        • gobject_vote_many a522f067d0f3bf8737e2bc5d4d83d36dff11f8cbfd3e67949967bf0578b6e330 funding yes
  5. Verify the vote has been successfully registered by checking the console response.

    • If the vote was successful, you should receive a message like this, where it says "Voted successfully 1 time…" and "result : success"
