What is CRV
Curve DAO (CRV) is the governance token of Curve Finance, a leading DEX optimized for low-slippage swaps between stablecoins and pegged assets like ETH/stETH. CRV holders can lock tokens into veCRV to vote on emission gauges across pools and earn a share of trading fees. Curve sits at the base of DeFi: Convex, Yearn and countless yield strategies are built on top of it. CRV value accrues from Curve fees and incentives around lockups.
