Project Funding

Protocol Fees Payment

To facilitate their projects, initiators are required to pay fees in $POLN to the protocol.

Voting and Governance

Holding $POLN allows initiators to actively participate in the governance of the protocol, influencing crucial decisions and guiding the platform’s developmental trajectory.

This recognition system incentivizes the launching and support of successful initiatives, fostering ongoing engagement and collaboration within the PoLN ecosystem.

From Mentors and Agents

Agents and Mentors receive their standard compensation in stablecoins for their services.

Additionally, they may be awarded $POLN tokens as a bonus to recognize their exceptional contributions or the successful outcomes of the projects they support.

Participation Benefits

As active participants in fellowships, contractors receive a portion of the platform's service credits, recognizing their contributions and aligning their interests with the overall success of the projects. This system supports their professional growth and encourages ongoing collaboration within the PoLN ecosystem.

Voting and Governance

Holding $POLN gives contractors a voice in the platform’s governance, ensuring their perspectives are considered in the decision-making processes.
