# Voting and Gauge Weights The Curve system allows **veCRV** holders to vote how **CRV** inflation is distributed by assigning weights to each pool's "gauge". As a holder of **veCRV**, Convex Finance can participate in these voting procedures, and these voting rights are passed to vote locked **CVX** holders. ## **Voting Rules and Information:** * Voting will be done via [Snapshot](https://snapshot.org/#/cvx.eth). * Governance proposals are weighted respectively by their **vlCVX** vote outcome. Thus if 60% of **vlCVX** votes for YES and 40% for NO, Convex will submit an on chain vote for 60% YES and 40% NO. * Gauge weight votes will be **bi-weekly,** starting Thursdays at 00:00 UTC and ending on Tuesdays 00:00 UTC. * Other Curve.fi governance votes will be addressed as they arise. * Curve ownership governance votes will have a quorum of **15%**; Curve parameter governance votes will have a quorum of **15%**; gauge weight votes will not have a quorum. * Individual **CVX** holders may spread their votes among multiple pools in gauge weight votes. * Each gauge must receive at least **0.05%** of the votes before weight is assigned. {% hint style="warning" %} Convex Finance multi-sig is still required to sign to establish outcomes of all CVX Snapshot votes, for both governance and Curve gauge weight votes. In almost all cases, we will vote in-line with CVX holders. However, Convex and Curve benefit each other, and proposals considered to be blatant attacks damaging either protocol will not be signed for. {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
