# Governance The governance interface allows you: * to create and vote on platform improvement proposals * to lock $JEX to be able to vote on proposals as well as being rewarded with a share of the platform fees.

As a reminder, $JEX holders receive 50% of the fees collected on the platform (in proportion to the number of $JEX held). However, by blocking $JEX for a specific period (180 days maximum) they increase their reward rate and can vote on proposals.

To create a proposal, the user will need to have some voting power (more information on the open-source governance repository: ) --- # 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.
