How to Vote

Staking grants DAO members the ability to vote on proposals. Your voting power is calculated by the number of tokens you have staked divided by the total number of tokens staked at the time the proposal was made. This page will show how to use your voting power to vote on a proposal as well as delegating your voting power.

Vote and Delegate
