> **Visual Note:** The Phala Foundation graphic advertises gas-free Snapshot governance voting with vPHA tokens, featuring the bold headline "VOTE WITH vPHA. NO GAS TO CAST THE VOTE." alongside a stylized green vPHA logo—directly illustrating the post's explanation that voting itself is gasless via off-chain signatures, though acquiring vPHA by staking $PHA on Ethereum still incurs gas fees and a 21-day unlock period.

Getting vPHA means staking $PHA on Ethereum. Ethereum gas applies, and unstaking has a 21-day unlock plus a manual claim."
