Tokenomics and Rewards

Platform introduces its native token, $KEN, as a cornerstone of its decentralized learning ecosystem, designed to incentivize platform engagement, reward users, and enhance creator visibility. By integrating $KEN into transactions, staking, and content promotion, platform fosters a dynamic and sustainable economy that aligns with its vision of a transparent, creator-centric, and inclusive global marketplace for knowledge.

The tokenomics and rewards system includes the following key elements:

Purchase Rewards

To encourage the use of token, both buyers and sellers who transact with the native token receive reward tokens with each purchase. These rewards can be accumulated and redeemed for future content purchases, such as courses, eBooks, research papers, or AI modules, or used in staking programs for additional benefits. This incentivizes active participation, fosters loyalty, and enhances the platform’s economic ecosystem.

Yield Staking for Ranking

Creators can participate in a yield staking program by locking tokens, which grants them priority ranking on the platform. Staked creators benefit from increased visibility, with their courses or content prominently featured in the hero section of the marketplace. This strategic placement enhances discoverability, driving higher traffic and sales potential, and rewards creators for their commitment to the ecosystem.

Token Utility

The $KEN token is the governance token of the Kenesis platform. Its utility brings greater flexibility and value to the entire community. It can be used to purchase tokenized content and, in the upcoming v2 release, it will also serve as a payment method for platform fees. Currently, all transactions include a 2.5% fee allocated to the Kenesis Foundation.

In v2, however, users will be able to pay for courses and fees separately, giving them the choice of how to use $KEN across supported blockchains such as Binance Smart Chain, Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Ethereum, and Optimism. In addition, those interested will be able to participate in staking programs, receiving rewards and ranking benefits. This wide range of utilities makes $KEN an essential element for the platform’s operation, helping to strengthen a dynamic, collaborative, and interconnected digital economy.
