STONfi DAO is where STON holders shape the protocol's direction. Eight proposals have been submitted so far with 11,576 unique voters participating. Here is the complete process for both voting and creating proposals. To access the DAO go to dao.ston.fi or click the DAO tab in the main Ston.fi navigation at app.ston.fi . To get voting power you need to stake STON through ARKENSTON at app.ston.fi/stake . Choose a lock-up period between three and twenty-four months. Longer lock-ups produce higher voting power per STON staked. Your staked position issues an ARKENSTON soulbound NFT representing your voting weight. This NFT cannot be transferred or borrowed. To vote on an existing proposal connect your wallet at dao.ston.fi , navigate to Proposals, find an active proposal in the Voting tab, and cast your vote. Any staked STON position with voting power can participate in votes. To create a proposal you need at least 273.32 voting power in a single ARKENSTON NFT. If your stake is below this threshold you cannot create proposals but you can still vote. Proposals require a title of up to 80 characters and a description covering Summary, Motivation, and Details. The quorum needed for any proposal to pass is 25,798 voting power. The discussion period before voting opens is seven days. GEMSTON is earned alongside STON staking rewards. Governance participation is the practical output of the staking decision we covered in the staking versus farming post.
