Introduction
veX is a non-custodial marketplace for financial NFTs — tokenized DeFi positions that represent locked value, voting power, or yield-bearing assets. It brings secondary liquidity to positions that were never designed to be traded, across multiple protocols and chains.
Today, veX is focused on vote-escrowed NFTs (veNFTs) — the most common type of financial NFT in DeFi — with support expanding to other financial NFT types over time.
What Are Financial NFTs?
Unlike collectible NFTs (art, PFPs), financial NFTs represent real economic positions in DeFi protocols. They carry locked token value, generate yield, and have measurable worth — but often lack a liquid secondary market.
veNFTs are the primary example. In protocols like Aerodrome and Thena, users lock tokens for up to 4 years in exchange for voting power and protocol revenue. The locked position is represented as a veNFT. These positions earn weekly fees, bribes, and rebases — but the underlying tokens are illiquid until the lock expires.
veX creates the missing secondary market for these assets.
How veX Works
- Sellers list their financial NFT at a set price. The NFT stays in their wallet — they continue earning until it sells.
- Buyers browse listings, pick a position, and pay with any token via Zap. The NFT transfers directly on-chain.
- veX verifies every listing automatically. Only authentic, unmodified positions appear on the marketplace.
No intermediaries hold your assets at any point. Seller fee of 1–2.5% on sale (varies by protocol). No buyer fees. Free to list, update, and delist.
