# Yapper Votes

### **Yapper Votes Overview**

* **What are Yapper Votes?**

Yapper Votes make up 25% of the total voting power on the Yapper Launchpad.&#x20;

These votes represent the voting power of Yaps (tokenized attention) and Smart Followers.&#x20;

* **How many Yapper Votes does each individual have?**

Each person’s Total Yapper Votes is calculated based on the following formula:&#x20;

$$
Total \hspace{0.1cm} Yapper \hspace{0.1cm}Votes = (Voted \hspace{0.1cm}Yaps \hspace{0.1cm}\* \hspace{0.1cm}100) + Voted \hspace{0.1cm} Smart \hspace{0.1cm} Followers
$$

For example, if a user has 100 Yaps and 100 Smart Followers, their total votes available would be 10,100.

They can then choose to award these votes to project(s) of their choice.

* **What happens to my Yapper Votes after submission?**

Votes are locked for 7 days. After this period, they become redeemable.

* **Can I withdraw my Yapper Votes before the 7-day lock period ends?**

No, Yapper Votes are locked for 7 days - so cast carefully.
