Windlass is a vote-incentive layer for onchain liquidity, built on a ve(3,3) model. WNDL holders lock their tokens to receive veWNDL, direct rewards to liquidity pools through weekly gauge votes, and earn 100% of the trading fees and bribes generated by the pools they support.
Unlike most ve(3,3) protocols, Windlass does not inflate supply to fund rewards. There is no protocol-level minting — gauge rewards are funded from a fixed treasury, acquired the same way every WNDL holder acquires their tokens.
