Voting/Resolution

How to resolve open disputes.

There are 4 steps functions required for resolving disputes. Each step corresponds to a function called from the appropriate governance contract. All steps can be performed via Etherscan.

Note: After a dispute is initiated, there is a 48 hour voting period.

Step 1: Determine the disputeID

• On etherscan, locate the submitValue transaction that was disputed. Click the Logs tab and copy the _queryId.

• Navigate to the governance contract. Click the contract tab. Click the Read Contract Button. Click on function 6 getOpenDisputesOnId. Input the queryId and click Query for a list of open disputes on that QueryID.

The dispute Id is most likely the highest number in the list; However, in case there have been multiple disputes on the same queryId in a short period of time, the disputeId can be cross checked by entering the disputeID in the getDisputeInfo function.

Step 2: Vote

From step 1, click the Write Contract button. Log into your Web3 compatible wallet and Click Connect to Web3 with the address that holds your Tellor voting power. Click function 9. vote.

Inputs:

• _disputeID: Enter the disputeID from step 1.

• _supports (bool): Here is where you can choose whether or not to support the dispute. Enter true if you wish to vote in favor of the disputer. Enter false if you wish to vote on the side of the reporter.

• _invalidQuery: If you believe that the dispute was invalid and there is no clear correct option, enter true here. Otherwise, input false.

Note: 48 hours after the dispute is initiated, votes can be tallied. Which brings us to...

Step 3: Tally Votes

• Connect your web3 compatible wallet to the governance contract via etherscan.

• Click on function 7. tallyVotes

• Input the disputeID from step one and click Write to sign the transaction.
