MASK token

MASK is the native utility token of Mask Network launched in February 2021. The token is governed by a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) called the MaskDAO. The maximum token supply is capped at 100 million MASK coins.

7% of MASK total supply was released through a two-stage public sale held as an ITO (Initial Twitter Offering) and in the form of LBP (Liquidity Bootstrapping Pool), a variant of a reverse auction. The sale took place on February 24-26, 2021, and raised $7,410,000. The rest of the tokens were allocated in the following way: 23% went to the team fund, 39.55% went to the foundation reserve, 14.25% was kept for early investors, 14.20% was reserved for the token round, 1% was spent on the airdrop, and 1% went to the liquidity pool. The initial circulating supply consists of the public sale, the liquidity pool, and the airdrop. The rest of the tokens are unlocked over a three-year period.

The use cases for MASK include yield farming, airdrops, staking, voting, and trading. Also, airdrops are conducted to reward DeFi and Web 3.0 supporters and event participants. MASK holders can stake CAKE in the MASK Syrup Pools or MASK-BNB LP in PancakeSwap Farm to earn MASK or CAKE tokens accordingly. Also, it is possible to stake dQUICK to earn MASK in Dragon’s Syrup pool. Liquidity providers of the MASK-USDC pair are able to get rewards in QUICK within the QuickSwap mining pool.

Token holders own the Mask ecosystem through MaskDAO. They have governance rights and can vote on ecosystem initiatives, funds usage, and all questions related to MASK. Each MASK token represents one vote. MASK can be bought, sold, or traded against USDT, USDC, DAI, BUSD, HUSD, and ETH on a number of top cryptocurrency exchanges such as Binance, OKEx, Bitget, Balancer, DigiFinex, Huobi Global, and Mandala Exchange.
