If you opted in for Term Pool 2 during the GP8 commit phase, please make sure that your custody solution can interact with smart contracts. If not, you have the option to update your xGov controller address (the one you will use to connect and vote) between now and the end of this governance period.
This one-time update is in place to mitigate technical difficulties reported during Voting Session 1 from private custody and Ledger users. We unfortunately cannot go backwards, but we can offer current governors an easy way to ensure their voting capabilities for the next xGov voting session.
To update your xGov controller address, please send a 0 Algo transaction from your governance address to: FONC4XH5QPJNUPZPHCMFGPDQ43J3VWYJ7ECI43AVGAGDIHKVBHPOH7YEXA
Text field message: af/gov1:j{“xGv”:“REPLACETHISWITHYOURDESIGNATEDXGOVCONTROLLERADDRESS”}
IMPORTANT: DO NOT SEND ALGOS TO THIS ADDRESS. ONLY SEND A 0 ALGO TRANSACTION OR YOU MAY FALL BELOW YOUR GOVERNANCE BALANCE AND BE DISQUALIFIED.
You can check whether the transaction was successful by visiting your account activity history on the governance website and pasting your wallet in the search box.
