# Migration: $META to mpDAO

## **Points to consider before migrating from $META to mpDAO.**

1. To start the migration, you must have your ***NEAR wallet connected***.
2. Have ***all your positions locked***. If you have positions in Unlock it will not be possible to perform the migration.
3. Make sure you ***don't have any position in Withdraw***. Withdraw positions do not prevent the migration, but then you will have $META tokens in your wallet without being able to migrate them. It is very important that you do not keep $META tokens unlocked.
4. ***Lock all your $META tokens***. If you have $META tokens in your wallet, lock them before migrating. Otherwise you will not be able to migrate them with this wallet.

Very important: verify before migrating that you have no pending Withdraw positions, and that all your $META are locked. Once you perform the migration, it will not be possible to perform a new Migration with $META pending to be locked.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
![](/files/ItaTbKP5hZA8oGyaK0HR)\
If when you press "Migrate now" and you get this message, it means that you have positions in the process of unlocking. In order to migrate, you must relock those positions.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.metapool.app/master/meta-pool-ecosystem/vote-governance/migration-usdmeta-to-mpdao.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
