In cryptocurrency, a snapshot is a record of the state of the blockchain at a particular block height. It means that you can for example track the holdings of a specific wallet back to a specific point in time. Snapshot, the voting platform, is using snapshots to validate if voters met the voting criteria at the moment of proposal creation. If a voter acquired required tokens after the proposal has been created, these newly acquired tokens would not be used for calculation of their voting power.

You can think of a space as an organization's **account** on Snapshot which can be viewed by anyone visiting the platform. It serves as a hub for all proposals related to the organization and a source of information for the users. It’s also where users will vote on proposals in their community.

You need to connect to Snapshot with your wallet and fulfil the requirements defined by the voting strategies used by a specific space. For example, you might be required to hold a specific amount of the organization’s token. You can see the voting strategies directly on a proposal’s page in the **Information** section:

If you don’t understand why your voting power is `0` or how the strategies work in detail, we recommend reaching out to the organization directly. In most cases you don’t have the voting power because you did not hold the required tokens at the time of proposal creation. Tokens which were acquired after the proposal has been created are not taken into account for the voting power calculation.

There might be multiple reasons for that. Most usually you didn’t have the required tokens in your wallet at the time of proposal creation. Have a look at [this discussion ](https://github.com/snapshot-labs/snapshot/discussions/767)to explore other potential reasons.

We're actively monitoring the use of boosts and will iterate on the rules and mechanisms to prevent any form of abuse as we learn from the beta phase. There are some potential risks with [Strategic incentivization](boost.md), so you might want to disable this feature in your space settings.
