# Voting

The main purpose of the veDOS NFT is to direct emissions to LP token pairs. This is achieved through voting for the pair. Emissions are distributed proportionally to the total percentage of votes in the epoch.

The expected emissions can be calculated using a simple division formula as such:

$$
emissions(PAIR) \ = \ % \ of \ total \ votes \ \div 100 %
$$

For example, in the first epoch 5,000,000 DOS will be distributed. If 10% of all votes are allocated to the vAMM-USDC/WETH pair; that pair will receive 500,000 DOS tokens distributed linearly throughout the epoch.

Currently, voting is only possible once an epoch, and cannot be changed. We plan on changing this in the near future after we ensure there are no exploits introduced. &#x20;
