Last updated 4 months ago

The Gini token serves as the fundamental fuel powering the Kalp Decentralized Public Infrastructure (DPI). It is designed to support the DPI’s ecosystem through its versatile utility and governance capabilities. With a fixed total supply and seamless integration into the ecosystem’s operations, the Gini token enables efficient and secure transactions while aligning the incentives of all participants.

Tokenomics of Gini

The Gini token operates with precision to maintain economic stability and usability within the Kalp DPI. Each Gini token is divisible into smaller units called mGini, where:

This fine granularity ensures that the token can support microtransactions and a wide range of economic activities. The total supply of Gini tokens is capped at:

This fixed supply introduces predictability and value stability, making the Gini token an essential building block for the Kalp ecosystem. Importantly, the Gini token is non-decreasing in supply, meaning that tokens are never destroyed or burnt.
