How to Obtain

Users obtain veCSM by staking CSM through the official platform. The longer the lock-up period, the more veCSM is minted — following a linear boosting model (similar to the veToken models popularized across DeFi).

veCSM is non-transferable. Users can only retrieve their original CSM by unlocking after the chosen staking period concludes.

This staking mechanism ensures CosmBank achieves an optimal balance between stability, scalability, and community-driven governance.

The vision for veCSM is to establish a truly decentralized governance system — one led by long-term stakeholders who are deeply aligned with the protocol’s sustained success.
