What BLINK does.
Each utility creates demand. Together, they create a token economy that grows with the network.
Gas
Every transaction across every chain in the BLINK mesh uses BLINK for gas. The more the network grows, the more BLINK is needed.
Governance
BLINK holders vote on protocol parameters, compliance rule updates, and new chain issuance. The community controls the compliance rules.
Staking
Validators stake BLINK to secure the network and earn fees. Delegators earn a share. Slashing keeps everyone honest.
Settlement
BLINK is the cross-chain settlement asset. Every cross-chain move settles in BLINK, making it the reserve currency of the mesh.
Access
Staking BLINK grants access to premium compliance tools, higher API tiers, and governance participation.
Utility creates demand. Demand creates value.
BLINK's utilities reinforce each other in a virtuous cycle that accelerates as the network grows.
Every transaction, every chain, every issuer makes BLINK more useful — and more scarce.
