Governance Token

A token that grants holders voting power over protocol decisions. Governance tokens enable decentralized control of DeFi protocols, DAOs, and blockchain parameters. Examples on Solana: JUP (Jupiter), MNDE (Marinade), RAY (Raydium). Voting power is typically proportional to token holdings, though some systems use quadratic voting or delegation.
