# The vAPI token

The vAPI token is the network token of vAPI Network on Base. Supply was fixed at deployment at 100,000,000; the contract has no mint function, no owner, and no admin keys. Supply can only decrease through burns.

| Chain | Token Contract | Pool |
| ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Base | [0x1eA8deB921AA6015f4938010C848140b98108Dd2](https://basescan.org/token/0x1eA8deB921AA6015f4938010C848140b98108Dd2) | 0x05da2eb0bd58cb74ce0a0c4c93200a2e96778075fbe611b46967a334986c5671 |
## Allocation
TGE = token generation event.
Allocation and release of the fixed 100,000,000 supply.
| Allocation | Share | Terms |
| ------------------- | ----- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| Liquidity pool | 80% | Seeded at launch into the Uniswap V4 pool |
| Ecosystem & listing | 7% | 20% at TGE, 6-month linear release |
| Founding team | 6% | 3-month cliff, then 9-month linear |
| Strategic sale | 5% | 40% at TGE, 14-day cliff, 60% linear released over 4-month |
| Airdrop | 2% | 20% at TGE, 6-month linear |
{% hint style="info" %}
*The strategic sale was priced across two tranches at a weighted average valuation of $2M FDV.*
{% endhint %}
## Trading fee
The token's trading pool carries a 3% fee on buys and sells, taken in vAPI and routed to the network treasury. It exists to bootstrap the network before platform fees carry it, primarily funding the reward pool, development, security, legal, and marketing.
{% hint style="info" %}
Staking, rewards, and governance are currently in development. [Network economics](/token-and-foundation/network-economics.md) describes the designed mechanics of the network so holders understand what the token is for. The final mechanics become public after a successful audit by a third-party security firm. See [Roadmap & status](/products/roadmap-status.md).

The Genesis Goose Eggs NFT campaign is a separate collection on Base. See [NFT campaign: vAPI Genesis Goose Eggs](/token-and-foundation/genesis-eggs.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.vapinetwork.ai/token-and-foundation/vapi-token.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
