HCODE Token Utility

  • • Governance voting and delegation in DAO.

  • • Memory fabric access: preserved HolyAgent context when switching between external AI models.
  • • Role marketplace rewards: monetization of trained role packs through Daenerys with HCODE payouts.
  • • Wallet sync: internal HolyAgent balance can be synchronized to an external EVM wallet for withdrawal.
  • • Treasury participation for initiative funding through DAO.
  • • Incentive layer for ecosystem contribution, development, and moderation.
