Promote with Leviathan News311,915 CVX across 3 For votes is thin social consent for a system meant to route Convex weight across Curve, F(x), Frax, Resupply, and Convex itself. The upside is cleaner execution than Snapshot-plus-multisig, especially for Curve/F(x) gauge votes where the repo stores per-gauge basis-point totals and submits them on-chain. The footgun is already in the code docs: delegation is lazy, expired vlCVX locks can revert `sync()`, and DAO votes sit behind a 12-hour finalization window.

Liquid lockers like Convex, Yearn, and StakeDAO pool CRV into veCRV, giving users access to boosted yields and governance influence without a four-year lock. These communal boosts have become the norm, reshaping Curve governance and rewards, while direct veCRV still benefits large holders seeking maximum control.
