| ## VSP voting | |||
|
|
|||
| To allow a VSP to vote for you, you first have to sign up for a VSP. A list of them can be found [here](../../proof-of-stake/how-to-stake.md#pos-using-a-voting-service-provider-vsp). After signing up, there should be directions for creating a new P2SH address and importing your multi-sig voting script. | |||

| ##### Ticket Price | |||
|
|
|||
| To get the current ticket price, issue the `dcrctl --wallet getstakeinfo` command and look for the `difficulty` value. This is the price of each ticket in the current price window. You'll want to adjust your `spendlimit` argument in the `purchaseticket` command to be greater than this `difficulty` value when purchasing tickets manually. | |||

| If you don't want `ticketbuyer` to spend all of your funds, there is one more option which allows you to specify a balance which will not be spent: | ||
|
|
||
| ```no-highlight | ||
| ticketbuyer.balancetomaintainabsolute=<balance> | ||
| ``` | ||
| Note: The info below is now considered "legacy" and will be phased out at a later date. It is recommended to use the process [here](#vsp-voting) to purchase tickets with a VSP as of version 1.6.0 and above as it better respects privacy and requires no sign-up with the VSP. |

I have written changes to the dcrwallet-tickets.md page to add steps for staking with a VPS via vpsd as of v1.6.0, as well as added verbiage to differentiate steps that refer to the legacy method of purchasing tickets and delegating voting rights to a VSP.
