Token Design
Everything you need to know about your $VERA token.
What's the utility of $VERA token?
$VERA is the original utility token for the Vera network and entered the market on September 23, 2021 as an ERC-20 and BEP-20 token. Cross-chain support for other major blockchains will be added over time.
$VERA is used to primarily govern the Vera network and operate within Vera's system of NFT renting/lending and financing/mortgaging pools. $VERA holders can use their tokens as follows:
- 1.Post their tokens in combination with other cryptocurrencies, to decrease required collateral for NFT rentals and mortgages.
- 2.Receive a percent discount (adjustable by the future governance protocol) on maker and/or taker fees when paying with $VERA.
- 3.Get access to NFT financial products and services from Vera's ecosystem partners.
Fees collected by the Vera network will be allocated based on percentages determined by the future governance DAO. Such actions may include, token burning, incentives for liquidity providers, and growing the DAO treasury.
What blockchains does $VERA support and what are its token contract addresses?
$VERA is currently compatible with Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and Polygon wallets. The official $VERA token contract addresses for these blockchains are:
You may swap between ERC-20 and BEP-20 $VERA at any time using our Vera Swap secure cross-chain bridge powered by ChainSwap.
$VERA tokens that do not have either of these contract addresses are scams or fakes. Please be careful and do not be tricked!
What is the total supply of $VERA?
1,000,000,000 (1 billion) $VERA tokens.
Note that $VERA tokens combined on all chains will never exceed this amount.
