# Hodl Pressure

In general, the financial health of a token economy might be described as the [hodl](/square-1/conceptual-glossary.md#cultural-concepts) pressure (or buy pressure) outperforming the sell pressure.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Tokenized Access" %}
Tokenized access leverages a token holder's identity to give them special privileges to opportunities, events, and information. This is a rapidly evolving space with many emergent new use-cases and possibilities.

{% tab title="Staking" %}
Staking has been used in Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus systems for years.&#x20;

Today there are now both consensus systems like PoS as well as incentives for liquidity providers ([liquidity mining](/square-1/conceptual-glossary.md#token-concepts)) that both provide rewards and increase hodl pressure for a network.

{% tab title="Vesting" %}
Vesting tokens allows for a network to distribute the tokens without giving the owners opportunity to move them for some amount of time. This method is used in modern ICOs.

{% tab title="NFT Mining" %}
NFT mining is a new use case pioneered by the [$MEME](https://dontbuymeme.com/) economy. This encourages holders of the token to stake them into contracts; over time those who stake will accumulate a new token they can use to purchase NFTs (see: [social tokens](broken://pages/-MTqCTZy11Q-MrZPKcBF)).
