Protocol Economics

How $KOL is designed to work

A 2% fee on protocol transactions is designed to route directly into the developer grant pool — no intermediary, no manual allocation.

Protocol Transaction

Any transaction routed through $KOL's core contracts.

02

2% Fee Split

A fixed 2% is designed to be withheld automatically at the contract level.

03

Grant Pool

Fees accumulate into a transparent, on-chain grant treasury.

04

Bounty Funding

The treasury funds open bounties as contributors ship verified work.
