Token Utility

$SALD will serve as the key to unlocking Salad's products and innovations, and will be integral to our ecosystem's growth and sustainability. $SALD main utility as a governance token gives holders the ability to participate in shaping the future of Salad Ventures.

Arcaden-related proposals: Token-holders could vote on adding new games to the Arcaden platform or changes to the reward structure for games.

Apollo Academy-related proposals: Governance token holders might have a say in the educational content offered by Apollo Academy. This could include voting on new courses, deciding on partnerships with educational content creators, or even shaping the overall educational strategy of the platform.

Maslow-related proposals: As Maslow is a Decentralised Labour Exchange (DLX), token holders could potentially vote on changes to the platform's transaction and payment policies, the implementation of new features, or the integration of different markets (e.g., gig economy, freelancer market, full-time/part-time job market). They might also vote on the use of NFTs as credentials or the introduction of new types of job listings.

Token Distribution

Community

Community is an essential part of the Salad ecosystem, and we strongly believe in rewarding members who actively contribute and engage with the community. We have various programs in place to incentivise and recognise our community members' efforts, such as loyalty rewards, onboarding rewards, seasonal rewards, and airdrops. Our loyalty program rewards users who hold and stake $SALD tokens, providing them with various benefits such as rewards, priority access to new product features, and more.

Onboarding rewards are aimed at encouraging new users to join our platform and contribute to our ecosystem. These rewards are designed to provide new users with an incentive to take action and start investing in the Salad ecosystem.

Seasonal rewards are a way for us to recognise and appreciate our community's continued support throughout the year. These rewards are distributed during special occasions and events, such as holidays and other significant milestones.

Finally, we are continually exploring new ways to engage and reward our community members. We plan to roll out future programs and initiatives that will provide additional benefits to our loyal and active users. At Salad, we value and prioritise our community members' contributions and aim to build a vibrant and thriving ecosystem together.

Treasury

The Treasury of the Salad ecosystem will serve as a strategic fund for various purposes, including investing in promising early-stage projects, forging partnerships with other protocols, and facilitating acquisitions in key areas of growth within the XYZ-to-Earn landscape. These decisions will be made carefully and selectively to ensure the long-term growth and sustainability of the ecosystem, and will be informed by rigorous research and analysis of market trends and demands.

The Treasury will also serve as a buffer against potential market volatility and economic uncertainty, providing a reserve of resources that can be drawn upon to maintain stability and support the continued development and expansion of the ecosystem. This will allow the Salad community to weather short-term fluctuations and maintain a long-term vision for the future of XYZ-to-Earn.

It is important to note that the specific allocation and utilisation of the Treasury may be subject to change based on shifting market needs and demands.
