# Governance Systems

VirtuSwapDAO uses the following systems for the voting process:

1. Staking - the staking system is used to stake VRSW tokens and receive vote-escrowed veVRSW tokens that are used for voting. The staking page can be found here: <https://app.virtuswap.io/staking>
2. Governance Forum - a forum dedicated to all governance-related aspects, from open discussions and community updates to specific proposal review. The Governance forum can be found here: <https://discourse.virtuswap.io/>&#x20;
3. SnapShot - VirtuSwapDAO Snapshot page is used for voting on binding proposals. See the DAO's snapshot page here: <https://snapshot.org/#/virtuswapdao.eth>
