# The Standard Token (TST)

The Standard Token (TST) is a governance and utility token. It allows holders to participate in decisions on stability fee rates, new features and the onboarding of hard asset custodians / public tokens. 

TST is designed to keep the Protocol efficient, decentralized and transparent. The community of Standard Token holders who participate in the Protocol’s voting mechanism is named the Standard DAO.
