Vesting Schedule

Team and Investor tokens are subject to a strict linear vesting schedule over 4 years with a 1-year cliff. This ensures long-term alignment with the protocol's success.

Utility & Governance

  • Gas Fees

    DNR is used to pay for transaction execution and smart contract storage.

  • Staking Security

    Validators stake DNR to secure the network. Honest behavior is rewarded; malicious behavior is slashed.

  • Governance

    DNR holders can propose and vote on protocol upgrades and parameter changes.

Deflationary Mechanics

EIP-1559 Style Burning

A portion of every transaction fee is permanently burned, reducing the total supply over time as network usage grows.
