Last updated 1 day ago

Stakes represent governance power in Agora DAOs. Stakes are required to create and vote on Proposals.

Creating a new Stake

Step 0: Navigate to the 'Staking' tab of the DAO you would like to create a stake in

Step 1: Click the '+ Create New Stake' button.

Step 2: Enter the number of tokens you want to put behind this stake, then click the 'Add to Stake' button

While it is possible to create multiple stakes, it often makes the most sense to use one stake with all Governance Tokens a DAO member holds placed in that stake. Use the 'Max' to stake all of your Governance Tokens if you choose this.

Step 3: Click the 'Confirm' button

Step 4: Sign the Transaction to create your stake

Step 5: View your new Stake on the Staking page

It might take a few minutes to update, but your stake is being submitted on-chain. Refresh your voting power to check if the stake has been recorded.

Editing Stakes

A Stake must be Free to be edited. See: Restrictions on Editing Stakes

Step 1: Click the 'Edit' button

Find the Stake you would like to edit and click the 'Edit' button.

Step 2: Specify how you would like to edit your stake

Choose whether to 'Add' or 'Remove' Governance Tokens from the current Stake. Next, specify the number of Governance Tokens to add or remove.

Step 3: Click the 'Add to Stake' or 'Remove from Stake' button

Step 4: Click the 'Confirm' button

Step 5: Sign the transaction

Step 5: View your updated Stake!

Deleting Stakes

A Stake must be Free to be deleted. See: Restrictions on Editing Stakes

Restrictions on Editing and Deleting Stakes

Stakes can only be edited or deleted when they are in the Free state. To unlock Locked Stakes, all votes using this stake must be Retracted.
