$CNC Token

Utility

The $CNC token is the apex premium currency of the Captain & Company ecosystem, with four key utilities outlined below.

1. Part of Warchest rewards are split to players who vote correctly on faction war outcomes

2. $CNC balances are used for governance votes to direct new features

3. $CNC balances can be placed in liquidity positions (LPs) to earn extra rewards

4. $CNC is the ecosystem currency, and can be used for all crafts and purchases

$CNC has a key deflationary burn mechanism, where 13.3% of the fees the game collects for crafts and Auction House trades are burnt.

Nodes & Distribution

There is no pre-mine of the $CNC token. The $CNC token is distributed by way of a user-operated node network, with 100% of all $CNC tokens being distributed to node operators. The maximum supply of the $CNC token is defined by the number of nodes circulating multiplied by 10,000. You can confirm the total number of nodes sold here.

Nodes run server computation that may be important to game logic in the future, and further serve to secure and decentralize the game network. Node operators are rewarded with $CNC tokens, which are continually emitted over a four-year period and can be claimed via the claims portal at any time. Initiating a claim for available $CNC tokens comes with a variable short lock schedule to ameliorate supply shocks around major unlock timings.

• 0 day lock keeps 25% of claim, burning 75%

• 30 day lock keeps 50% of claim, burning 50%

• 60 day lock keeps 75% of claim, burning 25%

• 90 day lock keeps 100% of claim, burning 0%

If you do not wish to operate your own node servers, you can stake your nodes into a delegation pool to have another user operate them on your behalf.

33% of all ETH used to purchase nodes in the public phase will be reserved by the Foundation and placed by an external market maker into a liquidity pool paired with $CNC to provide market depth.

The Foundation participated in the node sale itself to secure enough nodes to provide ecosystem incentives in the future, and purchased 150,000 nodes. 50,000 of those nodes were used to distributed to users who participated in the Early Access Play-to-Nodedrop campaign.

Node tutorials are available in the blog, and video walkthroughs are available in Discord here and here.

The pricing schedule for nodes, which may be amended, is below.
