# Botify Token Utility

<figure><img src="/files/Ve3BxocRIfllekwGjF8P" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

$BOTIFY isn’t just another token; the engine powers everything behind the scenes. From creator tools to governance, it’s how value flows and grows across the platform.

***

**Why It Exists**

The $BOTIFY token was designed to:

* Support the **creator economy** on Botify
* Unlock **premium features** for users
* Power a **sustainable reward and governance system**

It makes the ecosystem more rewarding, more participatory, and more decentralized.

***

**Use Cases**

Here’s what you can do with $BOTIFY:

* **List Agents**\
  Listing an AI agent on the marketplace requires a small $BOTIFY fee (e.g. 5–10 $BOTIFY). This helps prevent spam and ensures quality uploads.
* **Unlock Features**\
  Want bundled listings, advanced analytics, or priority exposure? Use $BOTIFY to activate premium creator tools.
* **Boost Visibility**\
  Spend tokens to “boost” your agent to the top of search results—perfect for promotions or launches.
* **Stake for Rewards**\
  Stake $BOTIFY to earn benefits like lower fees, better visibility, or future rewards from marketplace revenue.
* **Access Exclusive Content**\
  Some premium agent bundles or hidden templates are gated behind $BOTIFY—available only to token holders.

***

**Circular Value Model**

The system is built to be self-sustaining:

1. Creators earn USDT from agent sales
2. They reinvest in $BOTIFY for upgrades, boosts, and visibility
3. A portion of the $BOTIFY used is **burned** (permanently removed from the supply)
4. Another portion is **repurchased** from the market using platform profits
5. Token stakers share in platform growth and revenue

***

**Governance (Coming Soon)**

Token holders will soon vote on significant decisions like:

* New agent categories
* Marketplace fee structures
* Featured listings
* Product roadmap priorities

***

$BOTIFY isn’t just a utility token—it’s **your key to growth, influence, and opportunity** inside the Botify ecosystem.
