Too Long; Didn't Read

Quadratic Voting is a method of collective decision-making in which a participant votes not just for or against an issue, but also expresses how strongly they feel about it. The cost of casting more than one vote for an issue is quadratic, not linear, so the marginal cost of each additional vote is far higher than of the previous vote. QuadRatic Voting can be used in democratic institutions, in corporate governance, and in blockchain-enabled collective decisions. It can help protect the interests of small groups of voters that care deeply about particular issues.
