# veWOM

veWOM is vote escrowed WOM. Users can lock WOM for between **7 days and 4 years** to mint veWOM. The longer you lock, the more veWOM you get for the same amount of WOM.

$$
veWOM=LockedWOM*0.02616*t^{1/2}
$$

$$t$$ = number of days

You can earn additional WOM from the Boosted Pool by locking WOM tokens to get veWOM. It was created to incentivize token purchases, encourage long-term investing, and develop a strong TVL linked to lock boosting.
