3.1 $CASH Tokenomics – Transparent, Fair, and Fully Decentralized

$CASH is the native token of the Cashtap ecosystem, uniquely designed to ensure fairness, transparency, and long-term sustainability. Unlike most cryptocurrencies, $CASH is not pre-minted. It does not exist in any wallet until it is created through node mining. This eliminates the possibility of insider dumps, rug pulls, or hidden team-controlled supply.


Two-Phase Token Creation Model

Phase 1 – Founder Nodes (Initial 40,000,000 $CASH)

Founder Nodes mine the first 40 million $CASH (does not exist yet). These tokens are distributed over a 540-day vesting period through a decentralized smart contract. There is no entity or developer that can accelerate, change, or intercept this process.

  • Founder Node mining began: February 2025

  • Existing supply mined (as of Nov 1, 2025): ~5,000,000 $CASH

  • Total allocated to Founder Nodes so far: ~21,000,000 $CASH

  • CASH Tokens are issued daily, fully transparent on-chain.

  • CASH is liquid and can be swapped to USDC on demand within seconds even before public DEX listing.

Phase 2 – Masternodes (Remaining 460,000,000 $CASH)

The remaining supply does not exist yet. It is only created when Masternodes are activated by users.

Masternode activation requires:

  1. Purchasing a node license.

  2. Staking $CASH on that node.

This ensures:

  • No supply enters the market without real user participation.

  • Network demand directly controls token issuance.


Why This Matters

Most crypto projects pre-mint their tokens and then decide later how to distribute them — creating systemic risks:

  • Developer dumps

  • Governance manipulation

  • Community dilution

  • Exit scams

Cashtap eliminates these risks entirely:

Liquidity Strategy & Public Market Launch

Tier 2 activates and $CASH will be listed on Raydium , once:

  • All Founder Nodes are sold or

  • At least 10,000,000 $CASH has been swapped for USDC

This ensures that:

  • A natural liquidity reserve exists

  • Market pricing reflects real user participation

  • No entity can manipulate supply

Conclusion

The $CASH token model is designed around economic integrity, participant ownership, and network-driven value growth. No shortcuts, no secret reserves, no insider advantages.

The community creates the value. The community owns the supply.

This is how crypto was meant to be.
