# What are the “Consensus Guardian” rights, and why are they important?

The **"Consensus Guardian"** privilege is an honorary and governance-weighting mechanism granted by LynkCoDAO to members who demonstrate high community contribution, large staking volumes, and sustained outstanding activity.\
It is not only a symbol of recognition but also provides holders with additional on-chain governance weight and economic benefits.

Members awarded the **"Consensus Guardian"** title enjoy an **extra 5% voting weight** when participating in proposal voting and receive priority allocation of certain revenue dividends after specific governance proposals are passed.\
In addition, this privilege can serve as a bonus condition for other incentive mechanisms (such as the feedback reward pool and service allowances), enabling contributors to gain higher returns and stronger influence through long-term participation in LynkCoDAO governance and ecosystem development.
