    $JTO page mixes up Jito's two tokens

    The page title reads "Jito Restaking $JTO" and the tags are Liquid Staking + Restaking. The mint shown, jtojtomepa8beP8AuQc6eXt5FriJwfFMwQx2v2f9mCL, is the JTO governance token: Jupiter's verified list names it JITO/JTO, and the Jito Foundation's constitution calls it "The Jito Governance Token (JTO)". The liquid staking token is JitoSOL, a separate mint (J1toso1uCk3RLmjorhTtrVwY9HJ7X8V9yYac6Y7kGCPn). The two older posts here also describe JTO mainly as a liquid-staking and MEV play.

    Why it matters: someone researching "Jito liquid staking" could land here and think buying JTO gives them staked SOL. It doesn't. JTO is for governance, and staking yield comes from holding JitoSOL.

    Suggestion: retitle the page "Jito Governance Token (JTO)", add a Governance tag, and link the JitoSOL page. Question for Jito: what exactly does a JTO holder vote on today? Is it JitoSOL fee parameters, tip-router/NCN settings, or only the treasury? A one-line answer on this page would help new holders.
