Here is some additional information about this asset:
VeThor (VTHO)
VeThor (VTHO) is the utility token used exclusively to pay transaction fees and smart contract executions on the VeChainThor blockchain. It functions like the “gas” of the network, where the total cost of any on-chain operation is determined by the required amount of compute (gas) multiplied by the gas price. To ensure cost predictability for businesses and developers, VeChainThor uses a dual token system. This model separates the market value of the main asset, VeChain (VET), from the cost of using the network (VTHO).
The VTHO is generated based on the total staked VET, in accordance with a predefined emission curve. The token is issued to users who stake VET on VeChain’s StarGate staking platform, acting as a reward in exchange for helping to secure and decentralize the blockchain.
Please note:
- Trading through Kraken App and Instant Buy will be available once liquidity conditions are met. (when enough buyers and sellers have entered the market for their orders to be effectively matched).
- Geographic restrictions may apply
Will Kraken make more assets available?
Yes! But our policy is not to reveal any details until shortly before launch, including which assets we are considering. All available Kraken tokens can be found here, and all future tokens will be announced on our announcement roadmap and social media profiles. Our customer engagement specialists cannot answer any questions about what assets we might make available in the future.
