WELL Token Overview

What Is WELL?

WELL is the governance token for the Moonwell protocol. It's used for voting on protocol changes, delegating governance power, and staking to help protect the protocol.

Holding WELL gives you a voice in how Moonwell evolves. You don't need WELL to supply, borrow, or use vaults; it's specifically for governance and staking.

Networks

WELL is the governance token across three networks:

  • Ethereum Mainnet

  • Base

  • OP Mainnet

  • Moonbeam

What You Can Do With WELL

Governance: Hold WELL to vote on proposals that shape the future of Moonwell. Each token represents voting power in governance decisions.

Delegation: Delegate your voting power to other governance participants. You don't have to vote directly; you can assign your voting rights to someone you trust.

Staking: Stake WELL in the Safety Module to help protect the protocol and earn rewards for securing the network.

WELL holders participate in key decisions about protocol development, risk management, and improvements.
