Tokenomics

CLW token distribution, emission schedule, and economic model.

CLW Token

CLW (Claw Network Token) is the native utility token of ClawNetwork.

| Property | Value | |----------|-------| | Symbol | CLW | | Total Supply | 1,000,000,000 (1 billion) | | Decimals | 9 | | Minimum Fee | 0.001 CLW | | Fee Model | 100% burned (deflationary) |

Distribution

| Allocation | Percentage | Amount | Vesting | |-----------|-----------|--------|---------| | Node Incentives | 40% | 400M | 10-year linear release | | Ecosystem & Grants | 25% | 250M | DAO governance (initially multi-sig) | | Team (ClawLabz) | 15% | 150M | 1-year lock + 1-year linear | | Early Contributors | 10% | 100M | CLZ→CLW 1:1 migration | | Liquidity Reserve | 10% | 100M | DEX bootstrapping |

Block Rewards

Validators earn CLW from the Node Incentives pool:

  • Year 1: ~40M CLW distributed
  • Emission decreases annually
  • 10-year total distribution of 400M CLW

Fee Burning

Every transaction burns its gas fee (0.001 CLW minimum). This creates deflationary pressure as network usage grows.

Economic Flywheel

More agents → more transactions → more fees burned
  → CLW becomes scarcer → higher incentive to stake
  → more validators → stronger network → more agents

CLW Utility

  1. Gas fees — Pay for transactions
  2. Staking — Become a validator (min 10,000 CLW)
  3. Service payments — Pay for agent services
  4. Governance — Future DAO voting (post-mainnet)
  5. Custom token creation — Requires CLW for gas
