💼 Hold-to-Earn (Revenue Share)¶
Earn USDT just by holding KAWAI tokens!
How It Works¶
After mining phase ends:
- All platform revenue (USDT) collected weekly
- Revenue distributed to KAWAI holders
- Your share = Your tokens / Total supply
- Weekly distributions via Merkle tree
Example:
Weekly revenue: 10,000 USDT
Your KAWAI: 100,000 (0.01% of 1B supply)
Your share: 10,000 × 0.01% = 1 USDT per week
Yearly: 52 USDT from just holding!
Benefits¶
- ✅ Passive income - No action required
- ✅ USDT rewards - Stable, spendable currency
- ✅ 100% distribution - All revenue goes to holders
- ✅ Sustainable - Tied to real platform usage
- ✅ No lock required - Just hold in your wallet
Phase Transition¶
Phase 1: Mining (Current)
- Contributors earn KAWAI tokens
- Gradual emission up to 1B supply
- Platform collects minimal USDT
Phase 2: Hold-to-Earn (After 1B supply)
- No more token emission
- All revenue distributed to holders
- KAWAI becomes dividend-paying asset
Value Proposition¶
Why KAWAI has value:
1. Utility (pay for AI services)
2. Cashback (earn from usage)
