Fee Distribution
QOR is the native token of the QoreChain network, used for transaction fees, staking, governance, and cross-chain bridge operations. The fee distribution model incentivizes all network participants, from validators earning the largest share to light node operators receiving a dedicated 3% allocation.
The 30% burn mechanism creates deflationary pressure on the token supply over time. A genesis burn of 80,000,000 QOR (100% of Burn Reserve) at Technical TGE reduces circulating supply from day one, leaving an initial float of 265,775,000 QOR (~6.0% post-burn).

Community-funded by design: the Community Distribution of 735,000,000 QOR (16.33%) goes to airdrop recipients, public sale buyers, and early community contributors. There is no launchpad or IDO allocation, and the deliberately low ~6.0% initial float reflects what is actually tradable at listing.

Staking Rewards
The 590,000,000 QOR Staking Rewards pool funds validator and delegator economics through Year 5 and beyond. Estimated Year 1 APY: 8–12% (depends on staking participation). Validators require a 100,000 QOR minimum validator stake; delegators participate from 10 QOR.
APY depends on total staked. Higher participation distributes rewards across more stakers, resulting in lower per-token yield.
Consensus & Governance
Validators and delegators secure the network through staking.QoreChain uses a Combined Proof of Stake (CPoS) consensus mechanism that includes reputation-based scoring, delegated staking, and BFT finality. Validator selection weights reputation alongside stake size, reducing plutocratic concentration.
Governance uses duration-weighted voting: Voting power equals staked QOR multiplied by a stake-duration multiplier ranging from 1.0x to 2.0x, rewarding long-term alignment over short-term position size.
