These funds are allocated to: * Development and Operations * Marketing and Ecosystem Growth * Team and Sustainability *** ### BotChain Blockchain Tokens In addition to $BCN on Ethereum, the BotChain blockchain itself will feature its own native tokens. These tokens are **to be announced (TBA)** and will operate with the following characteristics: * **Mintable with no hard cap**, designed for testnet functionality rather than financial speculation * Primarily used as **test tokens** for recording events, issuing commands, and interacting with smart contracts on the BotChain blockchain * Hold **no real monetary value**, but serve as technical credits that allow experimentation and system operation * In the future, as testnet activity grows, these tokens may become scarcer and could hold value as **Ecosystem access tokens**, representing resource limits or usage rights rather than currency. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://botchain.gitbook.io/botchain-docs/token-and-roadmap/tokenomics.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
