What is Metagovernance?
Metagovernance tokens grant holders influence over the governance processes of other protocols rather than direct control of a single application. This is typically achieved by accumulating and locking governance tokens or vote-escrowed positions from multiple platforms—such as Curve, Balancer, or other DeFi protocols—and issuing a derivative token that represents pooled voting power. Holders use this power to direct emissions, incentive allocations, and policy decisions across the underlying protocols, often through bribe markets or vote-delegation mechanisms, while the metagovernance platform itself earns fees for aggregating and deploying this influence.

How CryptoUmmah screens Metagovernance coins
As with every category we track, coins here are screened individually against our 27-point methodology across the three core pillars — riba (interest), gharar (uncertainty), and maysir (speculation/gambling) — rather than being judged by category label alone. Two coins sharing this tag can land on very different verdicts depending on their specific tokenomics, revenue model, and governance structure. Across the 3 Metagovernance coins we've screened, the average Shariah compliance score sits at 54.7/100, with 0% classified Halal, 67% Mashbooh, and 33% Haram.
