High Level:

zJoe, a derivative of Joe created by Vector Finance receives a portion of the fees generated by Vector by boosting LPs using the veJoe accumulated through blackholing Joe.

The health of zJoe is important for the Joe ecosystem as zJoe has a current market cap of over $1.5 million.

zJoe token holders have a vested interest in the long-term success of Trader Joe.

Vectors $VTX also controls over 58% of veJoe voting power.

The zJoe-Joe market currently has approximately $200k in liquidity, and less than $10k in daily volume, making the current market very capital inefficient.

zJoe being semi-pegged to Joe would make for an extremely interesting LB pool, and LPers would likely have to rebalance less. The potentially deepened liquidity would help support both the Vector and Joe ecosystems by making zJoe easier to enter and exit.

#Tokenomics:

zJoe is minted only when Joe is converted and blackholed into zJoe using the Vector Smart Converter while above the threshold ratio of 0.90-0.95 joe/zjoe.

zJoe earns about 17% apr in $VTX and about 2.5% apr in $JOE

Summary:

Adding zJoe to LB would make for an interesting LPing experience with a semi-pegged token while making both the Vector and Joe ecosystems stronger.
