# Voting with Snapshot

One of the most important aspects of a DAO is collective decision making. We’ll be participating in exactly that by voting on a proposal with Snapshot!

## What Do I Need? <a href="#what-do-i-need" id="what-do-i-need"></a>

Before we get going, let’s make sure you’ve got everything you need. In order to vote with Snapshot, you will need:

* An wallet, such as [**MetaMask**](https://metamask.io/)
* Governance tokens from the project you want to vote on,such as `$REI`

## Voting & Snapshot <a href="#voting--snapshot" id="voting--snapshot"></a>

Snapshot is a decentralized, gasless voting system. It allows DAO members to vote on proposals with governance tokens like `$REI` , NFTs like Bored Ape Yacht Club, and more. Thanks to Snapshot’s off-chain, gasless nature, it removes loads of friction from the voting process and makes it as easy as posting a Twitter poll.&#x20;

Alright, let’s cast a vote!
