# Vote Voting rights are proportional to the amount of veSTO tokens locked. ### Types of Governance Votes **Incentive Distribution Votes (Gauge Voting)** By participating in gauge voting, veSTO holders can vote for specific STONE-Fi and BTC-Fi pools as well as LiquidityPad Vaults, thereby directing veSTO emissions towards these pools. By participating in gauge voting, holders are entitled to a portion of bribes and veSTO emissions proportional to their votes for the selected pool or vault. **Protocol Parameter Votes** Holders of locked veSTO can collectively decide and modify key protocol parameters such as fee structures, proportion of bribes burned, and other protocol initiatives. ### Benefits of Gauge Voting 1. **veSTO Emissions**: When veSTO holders vote on specific pools or vaults for emission allocation, they also secure a proportional claim to the associated veSTO rewards. 2. **Bribe Rewards**: When protocols and ecosystem builders bribe specific pools or vaults, a proportion of bribes are distributed as rewards proportionally to the amount of veSTO voted. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
