ACA holders can participate in network governance by voting on proposals, including changes to the parameters of the aUSD stablecoin, asset listings, fee structures, and protocol upgrades. ACA can also be staked to secure the Acala network, generating additional income for token holders. The token is used to pay transaction fees and interact within the Acala network.
