Sense Token Protocol Functions

🔒 Token Locking

Users of Sense Chat can lock tokens for certain purposes - such as promoting a channel or vouching for another user. This is essentially the same as "staking" tokens, but we prefer to use the term "lock" since users can also "unlock" these tokens easily. The tokens are locked in a smart contract and can only be retrieved by the user who locked them.

🛡Vouch

A vouch is a vote of trust for another user. This is how users can build circles of trust in Sense Chat. Vouch is a user-initiated function that uses Token Locking.
