Pre-Voting is Here!
Join in to Participate in the 3 Million ICX Reward Pool
Greetings ICONists,
We are pleased to officially announce the start of the P-Rep Pre-Voting event which will last until September 24th (for 30 days), allowing ICONists and P-Rep candidates to experience and understand the staking and voting processes.
As a reminder, first and foremost, Pre-Voting is an opportunity to stabilize the network prior to launch by allowing votes to balance out among P-Rep candidates. As part of this process, ICONists are strongly encouraged to spread their delegation across multiple P-Reps to prevent any centralization of power.
The ICON Foundation is excited about the progress we’ve made thus far and how close we are to achieving a decentralized network and look forward to seeing how ICONists vote.
Pre-Voting Period
Note, this may be subject to minor changes.

ICONex update
ICONists will be able to stake and delegate directly through their ICONex wallet via our newly updated UI/UX.
- During the Pre-Voting period, ICONists will need to utilize the web version.
- An updated version of ICONex will be available at the Chrome Webstore starting at UTC 02:00 on August 26th.
- For a tutorial, please refer to the ICONex Wallet Tutorial on the Pre-Voting event page.
- Mobile capabilities will be made available on September 24th.
ICON Tracker update
ICON will also be releasing an updated ICON Tracker (at UTC 3:00 on August 26th) which will include a new governance section and an improved UI/UX.
- With this update, ICONists will be able to easily track staked ICX, voted ICX, governance variables, P-Rep rankings, and productivity.
P-Rep Candidates
Lastly, we strongly recommend all P-Reps candidates to join the official P-Rep Telegram channel. All detailed information including procedural and technical support throughout the pre-voting registration and decentralization process will be provided exclusively in this channel.
