GM everyone! Today we’ll be shining the spotlight on $KERNEL token. The governance token in the @KernelDAO ecosystem, which plays an integral and unifying role in the ecosystem.

$KERNEL has its total supply capped at 1 Billion tokens and a user-centric token distribution model with the majority of the token supply (55%) allocated to users and the broader community, which points how much KernelDAO sets the community at high standard.

20% is allocated to the team, 20% to private sale, and 5% to community fund.

The following are several utilities offered by KERNEL tokens across the Kernel and Kelp ecosystem products.

- [ ] Kernel shared security: All Staked $KERNEL tokens can provide insurance against any rsETH slashing events and earn a share of protocol rewards in return
