17. 2,950 ada (excluding rewards) required to register. Will this be lowered eventually?
    We understand how you feel/we are working hard to be as inclusive as possible, but this is just the early stages of Catalyst. So far we have some security and performance issues that forced us to set this threshold for the system to function. Every fund cycle we are better optimizing the system, allowing us to reduce the threshold and include more and more people in the process. For example, in Fund 2, the threshold was 8,000 ada. Please note, out of the entire budget of Catalyst, only 14% is allocated to voters and 86% is allocated to proposers, referrers, and community advisors. You can participate in those roles and earn funds now without any thresholds or transaction fees to participate.
18. Cannot scan QR code. What should I do?
    Check that you have updated voting app. Help & support section > version #. Update and try again.
