But locking alone isn\u2019t enough. Holders will have to vote on at least one governance proposal every 90 days to stay eligible for rewards, and World Liberty has committed to putting up at least one vote per quarter, so there\u2019s always something to vote on.<\/p>\n<p>Rewards would come from a dynamic pool funded by ecosystem sources, including fees from World Liberty Markets and Dolomite. That pool tops up every two weeks as the project grows, and if fewer tokens lock early, the early participants could capture a larger share.<\/p>\n<p>A 5% cap on voting-power concentration through the staking protocol keeps any single position from dominating votes, and every WLFI holder will keep their governance rights whether or not they lock anything.<\/p>\n<p>The proposal has so far drawn dozens of replies on the forum, most of them being brief endorsements. It was largely the same on X, with trader Elja calling the plan \u201cone of the more interesting developments for $WLFI holders,\u201d framing it as a way to reward commitment rather than passive holding.<\/p>\n<h2>New Incentive Follows Earlier Staking Plans<\/h2>\n<p>This isn\u2019t WLFI\u2019s first attempt at tying governance to staking. The project <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/world-liberty-financial-introduces-tiered-node-system-for-governance-staking\/\">floated<\/a> a tiered Node and Super Node staking system back in March, one built around bigger lockups unlocking OTC access and partnership perks. But this new one is narrower and centers on voting instead of tiers.<\/p>\n<p>It has also come at a time when World Liberty is still dealing with Justin Sun\u2019s lawsuit over frozen tokens and governance rights, a case that <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/justin-sun-scores-court-win-against-world-liberty-financial\/\">stayed<\/a> in open court after a ruling against the company last month.<\/p>\n<p>The news has barely stirred the WLFI token itself, with data from CoinGecko at the time of writing showing it trading just below $0.060, down about 1.4% in 24 hours, although it was 2% higher than where it had been a week ago. It is also sitting more than 70% below its price from one year ago, and it even touched a new all-time low near $0.048 just four days ago, a steep drop from the $0.33 high it hit last September.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/world-liberty-financial-unveils-token-lock-rewards-to-boost-governance-turnout\/\">World Liberty Financial Unveils Token-Lock Rewards to Boost Governance Turnout<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World Liberty Financial has put a new governance proposal up for a vote on its forum, offering rewards for holders of its native WLFI token who lock them and actually vote instead of just sitting on them.
