veCRV

veCRV stands for vote-escrowed CRV (locked CRV). You receive veCRV by locking your CRV tokens for a period between 1 week and 4 years. The longer the lock, the more veCRV you receive.

veCRV is not transferable. If you lock CRV into veCRV, the only way to get it back is by waiting for your lock to expire.

Holding veCRV has four main benefits:

Revenue Share: Receive a share of the weekly fee revenue Curve generates
Gauge weight voting: Decide which pools and Llamalend markets receive the weekly CRV inflation
Voting: Vote on governance proposals
Boosting: Boost your own CRV rewards by up to 2.5x if you provide liquidity to a pool or lending market
