# Being an oBERO Holder

The oBERO token is a big deal in Beradrome and sets it apart from systems like Solidly\
or Velodrome. It’s the reward token given to Liquidity Providers (LPs) who add tokens to the\
system to help with trading. Plus, it doubles as a “call option” for buying $BERO at a set\
minimum price (the floor price). If you’re an LP holding oBERO, you’ve got two main choices:<br>

1. Buy $BERO Cheap: Use your oBERO to grab $BERO at its guaranteed lowest price\
   (the floor price).
2. Trade for Voting Power: Instead of buying $BERO, you can “burn” (destroy) your\
   oBERO to get “Voting Power” that’s locked forever. This Voting Power can’t be used\
   to borrow HONEY.
