GEEK is the native token to the Geek Network and the keystone for a new, inclusive, and borderless digital economy. As a proof-of-stake blockchain, Geek Network relies on GEEK to reward the validators that participate in the PoS consensus mechanism to secure and uphold the network. As a purely transactional cryptocurrency, GEEK is also suitable for use in micropayment and other payment applications.
The protocol will initially be governed by the founding team, and will eventually transition to a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO). As part of the DAO, holders of the GEEK token will be able to initiate proposals and vote on issues that will steer the direction of the protocol.
GEEK is a low-inflation cryptocurrency designed to provide benefits as collateral for newly created tokens on the network. This includes stablecoins, fungible assets and decentralized financial protocols. The use of GEEK as collateral means that as demand for secondary tokens increases, demand for GEEK tokens will increase accordingly.
In addition to the main features that serve the needs of decentralized finance. GEEK emphasizes the adoption of micro payments in real ecosystems and partners like payment for online services and digital products.
GEEK has several important characteristics vis-a-vis the way it secures and powers the network:
GEEK is an inflationary currency with no supply cap. This decision was made in order to incentivize a high level of staking participation in the early years of the protocol, which will increase the level of decentralization. Since staking is open to all tokens on the protocol, any token holder is able to avoid getting diluted by staking or delegating.
