3. Create DAO. Create own token

If you've chosen to create a new token for your DAO's governance, this page will allow you to create a custom token from scratch.

Creating your own token on DeXe DAO Studio is quick and easy with an intuitive interface.

Step 1: Name Your Token

First, enter a name and symbol for your new token. For example:

• Name: DEXE

• Symbol: DEXE

The Token Name and Symbol cannot be cannot be changed later.

Step 2: Configure Token Distribution

Next, define the initial tokenomics:

• Total Supply: The number of tokens to be minted. This is the maximum supply.

• Treasury: The portion of tokens held by your DAO's treasury.

• Distributed to Members: Tokens that will go to your founding members.

Remember to reserve enough for core members to reach voting quorums when distributing tokens. Allocating all tokens to the treasury means losing governance control.

Step 3: Allocate Tokens

You can distribute tokens to specific wallet addresses immediately after creating the token.

Enter each recipient's address and the percentage of the total supply they will receive. There is no need to type each one - you can upload a CSV list, too.

Please note this distribution cannot be reversed. Double-check your allocations.

That's it - your custom governance token is now ready to deploy. Specified recipients will receive voting power immediately upon distribution, enabling prompt participation in governance.
