# Tokenomics

## FAF Token Overview

FAF gives **50% of protocol revenue**, unmatched utility and full governance rights to its holders. The protocol was built from scratch and fully bootstrapped by the core team.

#### **Key Differentiators:**

* 80% of supply distributed to early supporters during Flash Beast transition
* Novel approach with majority supply unlocked from launch
* No predetermined team token allocation - compensation determined by Futarchy DAO
* Deviates from conventional low float, high FDV mechanics

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.flash.trade/flash-trade/~/revisions/xKAncpdYLJG7bPOyq6YW/flash-trade-protocol/tokenomics.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

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.
