What is a governance token?

A governance token allows holders to determine the future of a protocol. The governance token holders can direct changes concerning the project like proposing or deciding on the new features or even changing the government itself.

What is SFUEL?

SparkPoint Fuel, or simply SFUEL, is the governance token of SparkPoint DeFi platform SparkDeFi, a new DeFi token project by SparkPoint Technologies Inc., the same team behind SparkPoint (SRK). SparkDeFi is a full-service decentralized finance solution that combines a decentralized exchange or DEX (SparkSwap), liquidity (SparkStake) and pool-based (SparkPool) staking, Ethereum ERC-20 to BSC BEP-20 bridge (SparkBridge), P2P lending and borrowing (SparkLend), and DeFi assets protocols management (SparkDash) in a seamless, transparent, secure, inclusive, and interoperable platform. SparkDeFi is one of the major key component of the SparkPoint Ecosystem.
