Overview

OLIVE is Olive's native protocol token and is issued by Olive DAO.
The OLIVE token will be a standard ERC-20 token on Ethereum.
Token Generation Event (TGE): TBD
Be careful with anyone offering OLIVE tokens until TGE. They may be scams.
The OLIVE token is a utility and governance token that truly allows the Olive Community to own and govern the Olive protocol. As such, holders of OLIVE tokens accrue voting rights proportional to their holdings. OLIVE aligns incentives between the Team, Community, Traders, Investors and Partners of the Olive ecosystem by enabling shared control.
OLIVE tokenomics enables robust governance to drive future growth and decentralise the Olive protocol. OLIVE token finds its utility in protocol governance (casting a vote or creating a proposal).

Token Distribution

A total of 1,000,000,000 OLIVE tokens will be minted.
Their distribution is as shown below:
To achieve our goal of fair and distributed ownership and decentralization of the protocol, we have designed our tokenomics and community program to give everyone in the Olive community a fair chance to own OLIVE by contributing to the protocol's growth.
Once the whole community tokens are exhausted, the community can mint new tokens with a time-lock of 28 days and clear utility for those tokens to ensure the community has the resources to continue growing the protocol.
The community will have full control over how the community allocation is used.
OLIVE holders are called Olivers.
