$BONUZ β€” The Primary Token

The $BONUZ token is the core utility and governance token of the bonuz ecosystem. It has a fixed supply of 1 billion tokens and is designed to serve as the economic backbone of the platform.

Token Generation Event (TGE)

$BONUZ has not yet launched. The Token Generation Event will only occur once the platform reaches approximately 60,000 active users. In the current market environment, launching a token without a substantial and engaged user base is neither healthy nor safe β€” it exposes early holders to unnecessary risk and creates misaligned incentives between speculation and genuine platform usage.

bonuz is building the ecosystem first and launching the token second. The TGE will happen when the platform has proven product-market fit through real engagement, real pilots, and real users β€” not before.

Purpose

$BONUZ is designed to align incentives across every participant in the ecosystem β€” users, brands, creators, and infrastructure partners. It powers governance, unlocks premium functionality, and creates a sustainable economic loop between engagement and value.

Core Functions

  • Governance β€” $BONUZ holders participate in ecosystem decisions through DAO voting as the platform transitions toward decentralized governance.

  • Staking β€” Stake $BONUZ to unlock higher-tier referral/affiliate commissions, reduced swapping fees, and premium platform features.

  • Access & Token-Gating β€” $BONUZ can gate exclusive content, events, features, and experiences across the ecosystem.

  • Ecosystem Payments β€” Used for platform services including white-label deployments, premium dashboard features, Discovery placement bidding, and merchandise purchases.

  • Tipping β€” Give tips to creators, venues, and participants both in-app and at real-world activations.

Secondary Token β€” Under Evaluation

bonuz is evaluating the introduction of a secondary token to complement $BONUZ. The rationale for a dual-token architecture is to separate long-term governance and ecosystem value ($BONUZ) from short-term engagement rewards and user acquisition incentives.

Why a Second Token Is Being Considered

A single-token model creates tension between two competing goals: rewarding early and active users generously (which requires distributing tokens freely) and maintaining long-term token value for holders and governance participants (which requires controlled supply). A secondary reward token could resolve this by absorbing the high-velocity distribution needed for user acquisition and daily engagement, while keeping $BONUZ focused on governance, staking, and ecosystem-level value.

What a Secondary Token Could Look Like

If introduced, the secondary token would be:

  • Deflationary β€” Built-in burn mechanisms tied to conversion into $BONUZ, ensuring circulating supply decreases over time.

  • Reward-focused β€” Distributed through Quest completion, daily engagement, referral programs, and campaign participation.

  • Convertible β€” Redeemable for $BONUZ at a predefined ratio, creating a clear path from engagement rewards to ecosystem value.

  • Limited supply β€” Capped to prevent inflation from undermining the token's utility.

Current Status

The secondary token is not confirmed. bonuz is actively evaluating whether the ecosystem benefits of a dual-token model outweigh the added complexity for users and market participants. The decision will be informed by:

  • User acquisition velocity and engagement patterns from current pilots.

  • Market conditions and regulatory considerations at the time of launch.

  • Community feedback through governance channels.

If a secondary token is not introduced, the reward and engagement functions it would have served will be handled through alternative mechanisms within the $BONUZ token economy or through off-chain points systems.

This section will be updated once a final decision is made.


Important Disclaimer

Everything described on this page is subject to change. Token structure, utility, governance model, launch timing, and secondary token decisions are all evolving and may be significantly revised before any Token Generation Event occurs.

Possible changes include, but are not limited to:

  • The DAO governance model may not be implemented, or may take a different form than described.

  • $BONUZ utility functions may be added, removed, or restructured based on regulatory guidance and ecosystem needs.

  • bonuz may launch its own blockchain in the future, in which case $BONUZ could serve as a gas token or take on an entirely different role than currently outlined.

  • The secondary token may be introduced, abandoned, or replaced by an alternative mechanism entirely.

  • Token supply, allocation, vesting schedules, and conversion mechanics are all subject to revision.

bonuz is committed to transparency and will update this section as decisions are finalized. Until the TGE occurs, all token-related information should be treated as directional intent rather than confirmed specification.

The Bonuz Project operates through multiple business entities. Tokenization is managed by Bonuz Inc., situated in St. Lucia. All token-related activities, including issuance, distribution, and governance, fall under this entity's jurisdiction.
