# DAO Manifesto

The **STFX** DAO is a blockchain-based entity designed to operate in a completely decentralized and transparent manner, with open source development, governing structure and rules. The direction of the DAO is decided by the stakers of the token, with all changes and implementations being discussed, voted on, and passed through governance.

### DAO Membership <a href="#docs-internal-guid-2b4ef2e5-7fff-f1c5-3279-91d152a8287e" id="docs-internal-guid-2b4ef2e5-7fff-f1c5-3279-91d152a8287e"></a>

Becoming a member of the **STFX** DAO is simple and straightforward. To join, members are required to buy and stake **STFX** tokens on <https://stfx.io/stake> page. Staked tokens grant voting power in the DAO's governance model, proportional to the number of tokens staked. The more tokens a user stakes, the greater the influence in the DAOs’ governance they have.

```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
