**WEIGHTED** type DAOs operate a bit differently than the other DAO types, because Weighted DAOs have 2 Consensus Thresholds that must be satisfied in order for a proposal to pass. In a Weighted DAO, the thresholds of Weight and Members must both be satisfied for a proposal to reach consensus (See below)

Weighted DAOs have 2 Consensus Thresholds (Weight / Members)

Look at the DAO above, we see 2 thresholds for this DAO (Weight and Members)- * 63% of the Swarms Weight must vote to pass a proposal * 65% of the Swarms members must vote to pass a proposal In order to reach consensus in a **WEIGHTED** type DAO both of these requirements must be met. This means in a Weighted DAO, if both the WEIGHT and MEMBERS thresholds are **not** reached, the proposal will **not** pass. ## Special Weighted DAO Features Weighted DAOs have a few extra proposal actions they can make due having 2 thresholds. First, Weighted DAOs can propose to assign a Vault a Deposit Weight- Whenever someone deposits tokens into the Vault, they gain 1 deposit weight for every 1 token they deposit. This weight can also be adjusted when creating the proposal. Second, Weighted DAOs can also propose the Adjust Required-Voters Threshold action- Which allows a Weighted DAO to adjust how many MEMBERS are required to vote in order to reach consensus. Third, A Weighted DAOs Adjust Consensus Threshold action adjusts how much WEIGHT is required to vote for a proposition in order to reach consensus.
