Turn sell pressure into HODL incentives

The Token Value Problem

Most governance tokens suffer from chronic sell pressure as holders liquidate rewards without contributing meaningful value to the protocol. Our token accrual solutions flip this dynamic by creating powerful incentives for long-term participation and value alignment.

Reduced Sell Pressure

Lock up tokens through sophisticated staking mechanisms that reward long-term commitment over short-term speculation.

Aligned Incentives

Design reward structures that attract and retain the most valuable contributors to your protocol ecosystem.

Sustainable Growth

Create feedback loops where token value increases drive further adoption and ecosystem development.

Our Token Accrual Products

veToken Governance

Implement vote-escrowed token mechanics that increase voting power and rewards based on lock duration, creating strong incentives for long-term holding.

Voting Power Calculation

Lock Duration = Power Multiplier

1 year lock25x
4 year lock100x
Example: 1000 Tokens
4 Year Lock Result
Tokens locked:1,000
Multiplier:100x
veTokens received:100,000

How Token Accrual Works

1. Lock & Earn

Users lock their tokens for extended periods to earn boosted rewards, increased voting power, and a share of protocol fees.

2. Vote & Direct

Locked token holders vote on where future rewards should be directed, creating a flywheel effect for the most productive areas.

3. Compound Value

As the protocol grows, fee revenues increase, providing more real yield to stakers and attracting more long-term holders.
