Etherlink Calypso kernel proposal - vote begins on Monday, Feb 24th

Dear Tezos Bakers,

As it was recently announced, the Etherlink Calypso kernel proposal will soon be put to a vote.

The vote takes place in two periods, namely “Proposal” and “Promotion”, as explained in the documentation of Etherlink.

  • The Proposal period starts on Monday, February 24th, from Layer 1 block #8,060,930 (expected from 04:59 UTC) and until Layer 1 block #8,081,409 (expected on Wednesday, February 26th at 02:30 UTC at the earliest).

The command line to support this proposal is as follows, where you should replace my_wallet with the address or local alias of your baking account::

octez-client -E https://mainnet.ecadinfra.com transfer 0 from \

my_wallet to KT1H5pCmFuhAwRExzNNrPQFKpunJx1yEVa6J --entrypoint \

"upvote_proposal" --arg "0x00224058a50dbf4c0b5f6d5e4ee672cd63d0911959b335e587b4112a7eea7b2323"

Important notice: The first baker to support this proposal must inject the proposal into the voting system. To do so, “new_proposal” should be used instead of “upvote_proposal” in the above command-line.

  • If the proposal is successful, the Promotion period will follow immediately, starting from Layer 1 block #8,081,410 and until Layer 1 block #8,101,889 (expected on Friday, February 28th at 00:01 UTC at the earliest).

For this promotion period, the command line to vote is as follows, where you should replace
my_wallet with the address or local alias of your baking account and your_vote by “yea”, “nay”, or “pass” according to your choice:

octez-client -E https://mainnet.ecadinfra.com transfer 0 from \

my_wallet to KT1H5pCmFuhAwRExzNNrPQFKpunJx1yEVa6J --entrypoint \

"vote" --arg 'your_vote'

NB: Following CLI conventions to provide string arguments to entrypoints in Tezos L1 Michelson smart contracts calls, the last argument requires both single ' and double " quotation marks. For example: --arg '"yea"'.

Governance is a crucial phase in the life of the blockchain. It is open to all Tezos bakers and is free. We therefore encourage you to vote!
