# Access to Staking Pool



For high-demand mining pools, we may limit access to top liquidity and network contributors. Password protection and white-listing are potential features that may provide additional restrictions. However, to best coordinate the interests of the entire Astarter community, $AA tokens can be used as a coordination mechanism. For example, if community members want to access certain token pools, they must stake $AA tokens to get a certain weight. The creator of the token pool has complete autonomy in this setting. For projects launched on the Astarter platform, our goal is to create a community of diversified token holders who are loyal to the project and invest in its long-term success.
