How to display DAO token to the MIST Wallet

You can add the DAO token to the watchlist of the MIST Wallet. Watching a token does not have any effect on the blockchain, its just watching! Watching the DAO token with MIST has an additional effect. If you own DAO tokens, the token will be indicated on the wallet page together with the account owning the token.

To add the DAO Token to your watch list, the following steps are necessary:

  1. Open MIST Wallet and click on the "Contracts" tab.
  2. Scroll to the bottom and click Watch Token.
  3. Add the address 

    0xbb9bc244d798123fde783fcc1c72d3bb8c189413

     As Token Name, you can use "The DAO", and as symbol "DAO". Decimal places is "16". 

  4. Click Ok and your token will be added.

Instead watching the token in the MIST Wallet, you can also use a blockchain explorer:
