Circuit Token (CRT) is the governance token of CircuitDAO.

CRT tokens are Chia Asset Tokens (CATs). The CRT tail hash (asset ID) is:

Wallets that have had the CRT asset ID added to them will automatically recognize CRT tokens curried with the standard inner puzzle.

Governance mode​

To use CRT tokens for governance purposes, they must be locked up with a special governance puzzle as inner puzzle.

For information on the governance process, see the governance page in this user guide.

For details on the governance puzzle and related operations, see the governance page of the Technical Manual.

Token supply​

Upon protocol launch, 1 billion CRT tokens will be issued.

Additional CRT issuances are possible only in the following two situations:

  • The winning bidder in a Recharge Auction is issued an amount of CRT as specified in the winning bid.
  • Data providers are issued CRT that they are claiming from the Announcer Registry in return for Statutes Price updates.

The CRT supply decreases when a Surplus Auction is settled:

  • The amount of CRT that was offered in the winning bid gets melted.
