$TOG: Utility, Alignment & Long-Term Value Capture

$TOG is the primary economic and governance asset of the Telgather ecosystem. It powers everything from in-game payments and staking rewards, to platform governance and long-term content expansion.

More than just a currency, $TOG functions as the control layer across gameplay, community mechanics, and smart contract infrastructure.


🛍️ Payment & Platform Discount Layer

$TOG is accepted across all Telgather games and services as a universal payment asset.

Use Cases:

  • Purchase Diamonds, boosters, cosmetics, Game Passes

  • Pay for minting fees, NFT fusions, and portal upgrades

  • Access early content (events, challenges, loot cycles)

Native Discount:

  • Players receive a 10% discount on all ecosystem purchases when paying directly in $TOG

  • Discount encourages token utility and reduces sell pressure


🔒 Staking & Escrowed Yield

Staking $TOG unlocks $esTOG (Escrowed TOG)—a non-transferable token representing long-term commitment and value alignment.

Staking Benefits:

  • Earn $esTOG over time

  • Access governance rights via $esTOG holdings

  • Unlock platform-level booster perks (POG multipliers, Diamond rates)

  • Priority whitelist access to:

    • Seasonal Game Passes

    • Limited NFT mints

    • Creator & lootbox drops

🧠 Staking converts passive holding into active participation.


🗳️ Governance: Platform Shaping Rights

All $esTOG holders are eligible to vote on core ecosystem parameters via the Telgather governance portal.

Voting Topics Include:

  • Seasonal reward emission rates (e.g., POG → $TOG pool size)

  • Game weighting across seasons (e.g., PvZ vs Banana vs new releases)

  • Token sink calibration (e.g., Diamond inflation ceilings, burn rates)

  • Approval of seasonal launches, lootbox mechanics, and asset meta shifts

Governance is modular and game-aware, allowing players to influence both economic and gameplay dynamics.


Roadmap Utility: 2025–2026

Future phases of Telgather unlock deeper layers of $TOG utility across creator economies, spectator layers, and cross-game sync.

🎨 Creator Economy Payouts

Telgather will enable UGC revenue splits via $TOG smart contracts.

  • Map designers, quest writers, and skin creators earn $TOG based on usage

  • Community-curated content pool where top submissions receive voted token allocations

  • Smart contract integration with in-game metrics (likes, win rates, PvP plays) automates payouts

📦 Build once, get paid forever.


👁️ Spectator Stakes & PvP Bounties

Telgather will introduce staking mechanics for spectators and PvP gamblers.

  • Viewers can stake $TOG on live PvP outcomes

  • Winners claim pot minus protocol fee + burn

  • Bounty-driven PvP modes enable high-stakes matchmaking

  • $TOG use reinforces the velocity loop and burn rate


🏰 Guild Wars & Regional Prize Territories

Guilds will be able to stake $TOG to contest regions in scheduled seasonal campaigns.

  • Controlled territories grant on-chain yield boosts

  • PvP outcomes determine resource access, unlockables, and Game Portal perks

  • Adds geopolitical competition to Telgather’s casual and midcore titles


🔄 Cross-Game Inventory Sync

$TOG is the upgrade fuel for Telgather’s evolving NFT item layer.

  • NFTs upgraded using $TOG will reflect universally across all titles

  • $TOG payments unlock cross-game performance bonuses

  • Create unified identity and progression across Telgather’s game portfolio


🧠 Design Insight

$TOG is not designed for passive holding. It is meant to move, activate, and unlock value at every layer of the platform—from governance and PvP to creator ecosystems and staking loops.

💡 Tokens without velocity die. Telgather’s token sinks are gameplay-native, not artificial.
