To be eligible for voting, community members must hold $ALU coins in their wallets prior to the voting cycle. Each $ALU coin is equivalent to 1 Vote token, which can be claimed by voting for a particular project.
“It’s a direct democracy where every vote matters and your votes give you the power to champion the projects you believe in.”
