Token Utility

SKL serves multiple functions within the SKALE ecosystem, creating a sustainable economic model for validators, delegators, and developers.

Validator Staking

Validators stake SKL to secure the network and run nodes. Staked tokens are delegated by the community to support network operations and consensus.

Delegator Rewards

SKL holders can delegate their tokens to validators and earn staking rewards. This allows participation in network security without running a node.

Governance

SKL token delegators participate in governance decisions, including protocol upgrades, parameter changes, and treasury allocations through on-chain voting.

Chain Subscription

Developers pay SKL to rent SKALE Chains on SKALE Ethereum to have their own blockchain. This subscription model aligns token utility with real network usage and demand.
