# Gauge

Gauge Weight is determined by voting power in total, i.e. how much STO and how long STO has been locked up.&#x20;

veSTO holders can participate in gauge voting to determine STO emissions. Users can allocate their vote (1 veSTO = 1 vote) to one or more gauges (a gauge corresponds to an LP token of a pool) through the StakeStone dapp.&#x20;

Every bi-weekly, STO emission distribution voting is done in Gauge.&#x20;

STO emission to a gauge is proportional to the votes it receives.
