PEEL
$PEEL is the governance as well as the native gas token of Meta Apes (minted on Ape Chain). $PEEL was created to uphold the following goals & objectives:
To enable our players & community to have skin in the game (literally & figuratively) and participate in the decision-making of the trajectory of the game they love
To align our vision, values & incentives with those of our token holders and reward them for being long-term supporters
To decentralize the ownership & governance of Meta Apes
The Meta Apes token economy is designed such that all of the revenue & value generated inside the game accrue to our governance token holders, even including the gas fees as we operate on our own chain. Below are some of the use cases for $PEEL:
NFT purchases/trades
Performance-based rewards (i.e., rewards for top performing gangs & players)
Select critical in-game activities (e.g., final upgrade of NFT fighters, etc.)
Gas fees
Staking & in-game validators
Governance & voting
In-game purchases, including shell packages
The exact governance & voting structure is being finalized, but our governance token holders will be able to determine what to do with the proceeds (i.e., buyback, burn, etc.).

The initial circulating supply at launch is set to 25,000,000, representing 2.5% of the total supply, and the token unlock/distribution will last for 65 months following the public sale. The token distribution & schedule is as follows:
