# BNS Voting BNS functions as our governance token, granting holders the ability to vote on platform improvements and changes. The weight of their vote increases proportionally to their BNS holdings. Additionally, BNS holders will be granted access, or at least early access, to specific collaboration events. We plan to further incentivize BNS ownership in the future by expanding the benefits holders receive, with these benefits scaling based on the amount of BNS they hold or where they choose to stake them. Further updates TBA. --- # 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.
