# INTRODUCTION Hey crew! We hope your week is going well! The [Discord](discord.gg/3UEWVDdZ5G) has been bustling with activity and things are starting to get really exciting for $PIZZA token! @hivetrending and I have been working hard as we prepare for the next stage of $PIZZA and our Governance token. $PIZZA is and will always be at its' core an engagement and rewards token. HIVE is fundamentally built on engagement and we want to continue fostering this culture through our delicious pizzas! With that said, we have also started building additional value for $PIZZA with products and services that are intended to feed back into and to grow the project over time. This requires us to analyze the inflation impact that our engagement rewards and holder rewards have on the pizza ecosystem to not only protect the long term growth of the project but to ensure the price remains stable enough to allow us to continue building out products and services powered by $PIZZA token. We know some of you have been waiting for an official breakdown of our token distribution. We've been purposefully waiting as we work through some of the specifics of $PIZZA long term and how to manage inflation.

# $PIZZA TOTAL TOKENOMICS Here is the breakdown: 100% = 100,000,000 - Total 60% = 60,000,000 - Rewards Pool 35% = 35,000,000 - Burn 3% = 3,000,000 - Exchange / Fund Raise 2% = 2,000,000 - Total Team Pool 60% - Rewards Pool - This pool is dedicated for inflation and minting through engagement and holder rewards. 35% - Token Burn - The easiest defense to inflation aside from great tokenomics is executing token burns. We have slated 35% of the total available supply to be burnt at the rate of 1,000,000 $PIZZA/Year. That's 250,000 pizzas roughly every 3 months for a total of 35,000,000 $PIZZA burnt over the course of the next ~30 years. Burns will be executed through all channel sale proceeds (we will split sales between burn and project growth) and through the buy-back program. 3% - Exchange Listing / Project Fund Raise - These tokens will be listed in walls in incremental amounts to prevent massive price fluctuations. The funds raised from these pizza sales will go directly towards the project. This includes things such as but not limited to: advertising, unlocking features through Hive-Engine, licenses, buying miners, or contracting additional dev help for larger projects as we both work full-time jobs as well and time can be limited sometimes. We need funds to grow the project. 2% - Team Pool - The team pool will be used to compensate the core team members of the project. This pool will also be used for future team members as we grow the team. All team pool funds, once %'s are determined for each member, will be staked directly to their account rather than being sent liquid in order to foster additional trust. With that said and in the meantime, we will continue putting our own personal funds into the project for as long as necessary, acquiring $PIZZAs and buying miners or delegation for the curation account. We hope this gives you better insight into the vision of tokenomics for $PIZZA. We expect them to be a bit different for our Governance token. Keep an eye out as we are very close to staking. We have just a few more details to iron out first. If you have opinions or ideas, feel free to join our Discord and let's have a conversation!
