To be honest, I used to treat BANK as a regular Holdings until recently when I realized what I had missed.

In the Lorenzo Protocol system, BANK is not a token for you to hold onto while waiting for the price to rise — it is more like a membership card, proving that you are a part of the ecosystem, not just a passerby observing the excitement. This distinction directly determines what you can gain from this protocol.

**From "Holders" to "Co-builders"**

By holding BANK, what you actually obtain is more than just tokens:

• You have a sense of belonging - no longer an outsider, but someone who can participate in the direction of the protocol. How the protocol develops, where the money goes, and what the next steps are, all these decisions are related to you.

• You can make suggestions—not just by checking options listed by others. You can initiate discussions and propose ideas that you believe can improve the protocol. Your proposals could really be included in future versions of the protocol.

**Voting is more important than you think**

Governance is not just about pressing a button. Every vote essentially shapes the protocol:

• For example, deciding how to incentivize developers with treasury funds—your choices will affect what kind of projects can receive support, indirectly determining the direction in which the ecosystem grows.

• Each vote is a signal—whether you vote for or against, you are helping the community build consensus. When enough signals are gathered, the true evolutionary path of the Lorenzo Protocol is outlined.

So don't just see BANK as a number. It represents your voice in this protocol.
