How to Delegate

To participate in AWE governance, your AWE tokens must be delegated, either to yourself or another trusted community member. Delegation is required for both creating proposals and voting on governance decisions.
If you wish to vote directly, you must delegate voting power to your own address. Alternatively, you can delegate to another community member who will vote on your behalf.
If you want to vote directly on proposals:
Go to the AWE Network page on Tally.
Connect Wallet.
Click "Delegate Vote".
In the pop-up window, select "Delegate to Self".
Confirm and sign the transaction in your wallet (e.g., MetaMask).
Once complete, your wallet will retain full voting power, and you can directly participate in all governance votes.
If you prefer to delegate your voting power to a trusted community member:
Go to the AWE Network page on Tally.
Connect Wallet.
Click "Delegate Vote".
In the pop-up window, select "Delegate".
Enter the recipient’s wallet address (EVM-compatible) in the provided field.
Click "Delegate Votes" and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
You can also delegate directly from a delegate’s Profile Page within the AWE Governance Hub if they have made their wallet address available for delegation.
To verify whom you have delegated to:
Click your Profile Name in the top right corner of the governance interface.
Select "Profile" from the dropdown menu.
Choose the AWE DAO governance page to view your delegation details.
Your delegate’s wallet address will be displayed next to your username.
You can re-delegate your voting power to a different address at any time by following the same steps as initial delegation.
Additionally, you may undelegate your tokens to reclaim your voting power for direct participation in governance decisions. This is useful if an important vote arises and you want to personally cast your decision.
Delegation is flexible, allowing you to adjust your participation as needed to align with your evolving governance preferences.
