Gas fees when voting for a proposal

[frontalpha]

This is the first time voting in a DEFI governance decision. I thought their was a way to vote without paying gas.

Same here, it costs more than $2 for a vote, wtf?

[milkyklim]

It is ethereum with high gas prices, any constructive ideas how to fix this?

I’m not a coder but you could make something so that hodlers could sign a tx to show they have ownership of an address for an off-chain voting solution. That would then periodically check the balance of addresses you have proved ownership of. Security would then be important for this off-chain voting solution (i.e would need to use 2FA etc.)

I can explain in more detail
