Many users and protocols aspire to acquire governance rights within Pendle Finance, but the prerequisite of purchasing and locking PENDLE tokens long-term can be challenging. To overcome this, they can now acquire and lock [PNP](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/penpie) tokens as vlPNP for a much shorter period of time. Penpie created [**the Penpie Voting Market**](https://www.pendle.magpiexyz.io/bribe), enabling vlPNP token holders to influence the emission of PENDLE. This strategy supports Pendle Finance’s long-term sustainability, its liquidity pools, liquidity providers, and voters.<br>
