# DAO DAO stands for Decentralized Autonomous Organization. Each DeepMine [Сitizen ](/deepmine/deepmine-entities/game-roles/citizen.md)is a part of the DAO and has a certain amount of DAO power to influence the course of the gameplay by voting on initiatives that are put to a vote by [Senators ](/deepmine/deepmine-entities/game-roles/senator.md)and the [Government](/deepmine/deepmine-entities/government.md). Either only Senators or all Citizens can participate in the voting depending on the importance and scale of the decision made. * Each voice has its own DAO power. * DAO power is calculated based on the DMP amount in possession. * It is possible to receive DMP by burning DME or staking DMP in the [Portal](/deepmine/deepmine-entities/portal.md). ![](/files/-MhJslhT4kTo6_r4xPdP) --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
