Curve Vote Escrow · interactive mechanism simulation

Holders lock CRV in VotingEscrow for up to 4 years to receive non-transferable, time-decaying veCRV. veCRV directs gauge-weight votes (which pools get CRV emissions), boosts a locker's own LP rewards up to 2.5x, and earns a share of protocol trading fees. Edit the parameters and watch the lock-vote-boost-earn flywheel run.

Illustrative simulation. Mirrors the researched veCRV mechanism (lock CRV up to 4 years → non-transferable, linearly-decaying veCRV → gauge-weight votes direct CRV emissions → LP boost up to 2.5x → trading fees shared back to lockers), plus an optional toggle illustrating the Convex-style governance-capture dynamic described in the entry. Starting values, timing, and dollar figures are randomized for visualization — not live onchain data. Part of The Onchain Experiment Atlas.
