What Is a “Governance Token” in a Fractionalized NFT Vault?

When an NFT is fractionalized, the resulting fungible ERC-20 tokens often serve as governance tokens for the vault that holds the original NFT. Holders of these tokens can vote on key decisions regarding the NFT, such as setting the reserve price for a potential sale or deciding on its future utility.

This structure aligns the incentives of the fractional owners.
