Overview

The MOLTEN token (address: 0x66E535e8D2ebf13F49F3D49e5c50395a97C137b1) is a LayerZero OFT token that serves multiple purposes within the UniDex ecosystem.

The token is available across multiple chains including Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, and Optimism.

​
Core Functions

​
Protocol Fee Distribution

The MOLTEN token plays a crucial role in the protocol’s economic model through fee distribution:
  • 20% of all protocol fees (from trades and liquidations) are used to buyback and burn MOLTEN tokens, reducing the circulating supply (this happens from the address 0x8c128f336B479b142429a5f351Af225457a987Fa which is managed by external keepers to handle the buyback logic, and the team manually burns the tokens)
  • 15% of fees are distributed to MOLTEN stakers
  • Fees are collected from all chains and products within the ecosystem

​
Native Gas Token

MOLTEN serves as the native gas token for the Molten Network, leveraging its synergistic relationship with the Molten Network team. This integration strengthens the token’s utility within the broader ecosystem.
