DUO Token: Utility, governance role, and revenue share

DUO Token Overview

The DUO Token is the governance and utility token of the DUO Protocol. It receives 20% of the mint and redeem fee revenue generated by all liquidity restaking tokens (DRST) offered within the protocol. This means DUO holders capture yield from 100% of the protocol’s restaking activity, regardless of the specific asset involved.

Governance and Utility

• Governance: DUO token holders participate in governance decisions regarding protocol parameters, integrations, and strategic direction.

• Ecosystem Utility: Beyond governance, DUO can be used within other products across the 0Fx ecosystem, including points campaigns and potential yield-boosting mechanisms.

• Revenue Participation: By holding DUO, users gain proportional rights to the 20% fee allocation from all DRST mint/redeem activity.

Distribution Model

In alignment with the broader 0Fx Protocol token standards, DUO follows a 100% community-distributed model:

• 100% of the max supply is distributed to the community via a single-sided liquidity pool, ensuring transparent and predictable distribution.

• The liquidity pool is designed with a fixed floor price determined in advance based on predefined application and 0Fx ecosystem criteria.

• No venture capital allocations, no team-held tokens, and no artificially low circulating supply at launch.

• Initial market capitalization is set as low as possible while preventing disproportionate accumulation by individual buyers at minimal cost.

Ecosystem Alignment

The DUO Token aligns with the 0Fx Protocol’s philosophy of creating superior-quality tokens:

• Structurally fair distribution with no insider advantages

• Stronger guarantees of liquidity and accessibility

• Higher long-term potential and security for holders

By embedding DUO into the unified token standards of the 0Fx ecosystem, the protocol ensures that governance participants are both long-term aligned and directly invested in the ecosystem’s growth.
