The HashKey Chain network will serve as the base for the HashKey EcoPoints (HSK), an ERC-20 token developed by HashKey Group to serve as an incentive for ecosystem contributors, offering fee discounts and “specific rights” for asset issuance as well as early access to “future new token subscriptions.”

As crypto.news earlier reported, the HSK whitepaper outlines a total supply of 1 billion tokens. Of this, 65% is allocated for marketing and business development, 30% for the HashKey team, and 5% reserved for additional ecosystem user protection. The exchange will also burn HSK tokens, using 20% of the firm’s net profits to “protect HSK holders from the dilutionary impact of rewards-based increases in HSK circulating supply.”

HashKey first unveiled plans for its own utility token in November 2023, saying the token’s economic model will be “closely tied to the long-term interests of ecosystem contributors.”
