The primary function of the MEZO token is yield-incentivized voting power boosting:
- No distinct franchise is begotten
- Locked veMEZO boosts the user's voting power originating from his veBTC position.
This means that holders of MEZO cannot hijack the protocol, but also that holders of veBTC need to secure a portion of veMEZO (roughly proportional to their veBTC share) in order to maximize their governance power and therefore the gains thus generated.
