🔧Utility

THOR offers utility across multiple dimensions.

We’ve optimized the design of the $THOR token to:

  • Incentivize trading, aka the “Trading Black Hole”

  • Govern the THORSwap protocol in a decentralized manner

  • Progressively decentralize towards majority ownership by the community

  • Reward positive user actions and community contributions

  • Fee-Sharing of THORSwap revenues with the community (see vTHOR and uTHOR)

  • Permissioned access to content and apps

  • Fund growth efforts and community projects

THORSwap Fee Discounts

Depending on your $THOR staking amount (vTHOR/uTHOR), you will be eligible for a discount of up to 100% off Service Fees when using THORSwap:

It’s important to remember:

55% of THORSwap revenue will accrue back to $vTHOR, $uTHOR, $yTHOR and THOR LP based on the ratio of $THOR in each pool. This means more rewards for $THOR stakers, while still providing our loyal community members with sizable discount benefit.

Furthermore, swaps of below $100USD in value will still remain free for all users.

NOTE: You must connect your ETH wallet holding $vTHOR/$uTHOR/$yTHOR to receive fee discounts.
