DAO Governance Token
Also known as: Gov Token, DAO Token
A token granting holders voting rights and influence over DAO decisions and treasury.
A DAO Governance Token is a digital asset issued by a Decentralized Autonomous Organization that grants its holders the right to propose, vote on, and influence protocol decisions—such as parameter changes, treasury allocations, or feature upgrades. These tokens incentivize holders to participate in governance and align incentives with the DAO’s goals. Governance tokens may also capture economic value and offer rights like staking, revenue sharing, or delegate mechanisms.
