$RYZ Token

The Rayze ecosystem is designed to evolve from a closed, testnet-based environment into a fully decentralized protocol with its own governance and value layer. At the core of this next stage sits the $RYZ token, which will power governance, curation, and liquidity across the Rayze network.

$RYZ Purpose

$RYZ will function as both a utility token and a coordination mechanism, aligning incentives between investors, founders, and DAOs. It is not a speculative instrument but a tool for participation, reputation, and access across the platform. The token’s design focuses on three goals:

  1. Governance: Token holders will steer protocol upgrades, fee structures, and ecosystem grants. Over time, $RYZ governance will replace centralized oversight, transitioning Rayze into a fully community-owned protocol.

  2. Curation: DAOs and users can stake $RYZ to boost visibility for quality projects or proposals, helping surface credible startups and active investment groups. This mechanism encourages accountability and discovery through skin-in-the-game signaling.

  3. Access and Utility: $RYZ will unlock premium platform features such as analytics dashboards, proposal promotion tools, and private investment clubs. Staked tokens will also serve as membership or reputation credentials across DAOs.
