How to be a DAO Voter and Get Juicy Airdrops 🥓

December 14th, 2022

A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is an emerging form of legal structure with no central governing body and whose members share a common goal to act in the entity's best interest. Popularized through cryptocurrency enthusiasts and blockchain technology, DAOs make decisions in a bottoms-up management approach.

🔰 What are DAO Voters?

DAO Voters are members who can decide on proposals and vote for/against them. For example, if you’re a Uniswap DAO Voter, you can vote on Uniswap proposals.

Some recent examples:

1️⃣ Paladin $PAL to $UNI, $COMP, $AAVE, $CRV voters

2️⃣ Optimism $OP multiplier for Snapshot voters

3️⃣ Voltz_xyz airdropped Voltz NFT to $UNI voters

4️⃣ Velodrome $VELO to CRV voters

5️⃣ EllipsisFi $EPS to CRV voters

And the list goes on…

🥇 How to be a DAO Voter?

To be a DAO Voter, we need to hold the governance token of the project and opt-in for voting.

Here are some of the important protocols we should be a DAO Voter:

1️⃣ Uniswap:

Get some $UNI token on ETH Mainnet (No minimum amount)
You can buy on Uniswap, Sushiswap or any other DEX
Now go to app.uniswap.org/#/vote and hit “Unlock Voting”
A pop-up window will appear. Hit on “Self Delegate”. You should then be able to see your tokens as “Self-delegated”. You will now be able to vote on FUTURE proposals (not past and not current ones!)

Steps to vote with $CRV:

Get some $CRV Token on ETH Mainnet (No minimum amount)
Go to dao.curve.fi/locker
Enter the amount of $CRV that you want to vote-lock (this will become your voting power as $veCRV). If you want to vote-lock all of your $CRV, simply hit on “Max”
Select the time period you want to vote-lock your $CRV for. We went for a maximum period (4 years) as it would accrue the maximum voting power over time.

Note that you will NOT be able to reverse this step and will NOT be able to sell your $CRV for 4 years.

Hit “Create lock” (requires gas). You will then see a confirmation screen showing how many $CRV has been vote-locked (i.e. became $veCRV) and for how long.
