Chipstars has decided to introduce new and innovative ideas to enhance the overall ecosystem, including a new token and innovative staking system.

These new updates are poised to truly transform our project and take us a step further to drive player participation and involvement in our poker games.

$SHARK Token Overview

We’re bringing in a brand new meme coin called the $SHARK token to spice things up. It was designed to represent the strongest poker players (best known as Sharks) within the game — those who are most feared and well-respected.

It will serve as its own individual currency, and each player can participate in the ecosystem through farming $SHARK tokens. By playing poker on the Chipstars platform, users will earn a portion of the rake, which will be paid out in $SHARK tokens.

The value of $SHARK is derived from its tokenomics — we’ll buy back tokens to provide rewards to users if there’s an overload of players on the platform.

More details on the token metrics are below for reference:

  • Ticker Symbol: $SHARK
  • Total Supply: 490 trillion
  • Initial Market Cap: 85% Fairlaunch Pancakeswap Liquidity
  • 11% Chipstars Plattform Liquidity*
  • 3% Marketing & Liquidity Reserve other DEX / CEX
  • 1% Chihua Meme Launcher (50% to DuckDAO for FarmDrop and 50% TipJar Chihuatoken.com)
  • Chipstars will start buyback Sharks from the market to keep the platform liquid anytime

The $SHARK token will coexist with $CHIPS, our platform’s native token that helps power the overall ecosystem. $CHIPS can be used for platform benefits, earning rewards, and participating without playing poker.

Innovative Staking System

Users will be able to receive rewards in $SHARK tokens through holding $CHIPS in their wallets, with no counterparty risk whatsoever. It’s a seamless and easy process that doesn’t require any extra effort other than simply holding the actual token.

We’ll also offer multipliers where users can earn more when staking $CHIPS or holding liquidity provider tokens in our popular liquidity pools. Additionally, players will be able to earn an extra 5–10% bonus for holding $EBOX, $DDIM, or $CHIHUA tokens in their wallets.

More specific information will be released within the next week, so stay tuned!
