In previous articles, we discussed the basic concept of polar tokens, the technical structure of the Polars platform and the mechanics of the distribution of commission fees. Now is the time to tell you about Polars Governance Token [POL]. In this article, we will try to disclose information about the methods of obtaining and using POL, about its utility functions and unique features.

Introducing POL: Polars Governance Token

How to use

  • Participate in votes and governance of the Polars platform
  • Stake POL and get access to claim incentives tokens to become Advanced User.
  • Increase your Yield Farming APY by staking POL tokens
  • Receive Exclusive Historical NFT Event Tokens
  • Create your own custom polar tokens

If the user has available Governance tokens, it will allow him to put forward certain fundamental changes within the POLARS platform for voting and take part in these votings.

One of the main advantages of POL tokens is the distribution of 30% of all commissions of the POLARS platform proportionally between the Advanced Users. 30% of all platform commissions are sent to a special pool in which they are accumulated. Advanced Users at any time can stake a proportional part of the commissions from this pool in accordance with his share of ownership of Incentives tokens. To do this, the tokens must be staked on this smart contract. Staking POL tokens on the incentives smart contract allows these tokens to be used for voting, and also increases the APY of farming.

In the future, POL will be used to obtain unique historical NFT cards as part of those events that will be taken into account by the Polars platform. Additionally, POLs will be required to create their own custom polar tokens by users.

POL will circulate in all networks on which the Polars platform will be deployed (Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, etc.), but it is worth noting that Ethereum (ERC-20) will remain the main native network for POL.

100% (1,400,000,000 POL) of what is intended to be distributed among users as a reward based on activities, will be distributed according to certain algorithms and rules, at a certain rate:

  • 15% (210,000,000 POL) is intended to be distributed to users as a reward for their trading volume on the POLARS platform. For every $ 10,000 of trading volume, the user receives 5 POL.
  • 15% (210,000,000 POL) is intended to be distributed as referral rewards. These tokens will be evenly distributed among the agents who invited referrals and encouraged them to trade on the POLARS platform. The distribution formula depends on the referral’s trading volume. The user will receive 5 POL for every $100,000 of the trading volume of his referrals.
  • 10% (140,000,000 POL) is intended as a reward for participating in any type of voting. For participation in each vote, 0.1% of all remaining tokens intended for voting rewards are distributed among the voters. For example, during the first vote, 14,000 tokens will be distributed among the voters (0.01% of 140,000,000 POL), in the second vote, 13,998.6 tokens (0.01% of 139,986,000 POL) will be distributed, etc.
  • 50% (700,000,000 POL) is intended to reward market makers for providing liquidity to POLARS pools. The distribution rate of POL tokens for liquidity providers is from 0.3% to 3.6% per day. The amount is calculated in proportion to the formula for calculating the farming of BLACK and WHITE tokens.
