# Tokenomics

RAIDER and AURUM emissions and usage

### The Two Crypto Raiders Tokens

* RAIDER is the governance & value token for the Crypto Raiders ecosystem
* AURUM is the in-game currency used for all game activities

## RAIDER

RAIDER is the limited supply governance token for the Crypto Raiders ecosystem. It accrues fees generated from in-game and on-chain AURUM spend, and locked RAIDER can be used in voting on governance proposals. 

The total supply of RAIDER will be 100,000,000.

### Distribution

* 40% to incentivize LP staking and bonding, distributed linearly over 4 years.
* 20% to the founding team, vested over 2 years.
* 15% to employees and contractors, vested over 1-year when awarded.
* 10% to the treasury for bug bounties, community giveaways, and future needs.
* 10% to in-game and tournament rewards.
* 5% reserved for future investors.

### Utility

The first use of RAIDER is to earn a share of fees from in-game and on-chain AURUM spend, which can be earned by staking RAIDER on the [economy site](https://econ.cryptoraiders.xyz/staking). 

The current distribution rate is 50%. 50% of AURUM spent in the Crypto Raiders economy goes back to RAIDER stakers depending on the length of their staking lockup. 

The second use is to vote on governance proposals within the Crypto Raiders ecosystem, which can also be found on the voting page of the economy site.
