New Vote Instruction Default

Feature Key: tSynMCspg4xFiCj1v3TDb4c7crMR5tSBhLz4sF7rrNA

This feature gate adds a new vote instruction as the default. Existing vote instructions will continue to work, but new votes will use the new instruction format going forward.

Impact

Data providers will need to be updated to track the new vote instruction, as the new instruction format may not be captured in existing vote pipelines.

Activation

This feature is live on mainnet beta as of epoch 749 (around 10pm ET on 2025-02-27)
