What are TST utilities in TeleSwap?

Within TeleSwap, TST serves three main purposes:

  1. Revenue sharing: Users can stake their TST in various reward pools and earn a share of the fees generated by TeleSwap transactions. As TeleSwapโ€™s transaction volume grows, more fees are generated, resulting in increased earnings for TST stakers.

  2. Collateral for Lockers: Lockers are required to lock TST in addition to native token collateral to operate within the network. In the future, TST will become the sole accepted collateral, replacing native tokens, once its price stabilizes in the market and it is safe to use as exclusive collateral. As the demand for the TeleSwap protocol grows, lockers must lock more TST, ensuring the protocolโ€™s security.

  3. Governance decisions: TST holders govern the TeleSwap protocol, making key decisions such as:

    1. Allocating TeleSwap treasury funds

    2. Approving or rejecting improvement proposals

    3. Adding support for new chains

    4. Setting TeleSwap fees

    5. Adding new Lockers, and more.

TST serves as the backbone of the TeleSwap ecosystem, combining utility, security, and governance to drive the protocolโ€™s success.

Tokenomics

The total supply of TST is 1,000,000,000 tokens.
