 Ravencoin will support voting. Creating a vote will create vote tokens. These vote tokens are identical to normally issued tokens, except that they are created in exact qty and units as an already issued token. Vote tokens move just like regular tokens up until the block height when the vote expires. This allows vote token holders to send their vote to a delegate that might have better information about the topic and therefore cast a more informed vote. The feature will also allow voting by percentage of ownership. Second tier web voting can be built on top of this protocol.

		+	== BIP44 Seed Words in Raven Core Wallets (May 6th 2020) ==
		+	Ravencoin core is going to default to using BIP44 starting with version 4. The iOS and Android RVN Wallet is already BIP44, and Mango Farms web wallet is also BIP44.
		+	If you’ve already created a wallet before the version 4 release, then it will continue to use just the BIP32 HD derivation and should be backwards compatible with your existing wallet.dat file. If Ravencoin core does not find a wallet.dat, it will prompt you and give you 12-words to write down as your backup. You should still encrypt your wallet and never forget your password.

 Rewards, also sometimes called dividends, provides a way to send tokenized assets or RVN to token holders by percentage of tokens held. Dividend support can be done without modifying the protocol. Rewards do not require a consensus protocol change, and the rpc calls exist to be able do rewards already. These capabilities just make it native and easy-to-use from the client.

+==Phase 5 - Messaging, OIP, and Restricted Assets - Feb 7th, 2020==
 A message is "broadcast" if an owner token or channel token is sent in a transaction to the same address with the addition of an IPFS hash and an optional expiration date. The message isn't really broadcast in the sense of being transmitted to nodes, but rather each node will independently detect the special transaction type and display the message. Message display is subject to some heuristic anti-spam rules.
