I think we should focus into providing some utility for the vCOW tokens before we enable unlocks. e.g. A very good suggestion that I read about in the GNOSIS forum was to allow reduced trading fees to vCOW holders.

Providing utility to vCOW will reduce the supply of COW, which can definitely help the price.
