Revenue Distribution

10% of domain sales revenue will be distributed to KNS Dev Team, 40% to the Treasury, and 50% to GradualDistributor.

The details on the revenue distribution are as follows:

  1. After domain registration, the revenue (KLAY) for KlayRegistrarController is moved to PrimaryDistributor.

  2. PrimaryDistributor distributes 10% to the team wallet, 40% to Treasury, and 50% to GradualDistributor.

  3. GradualDistributor gradually sends distributed KLAY to SecondaryDistributor during the registration period of each domain.

  4. SecondaryDistributor purchases $KNS using 50% of the KLAY it received and distributes it to $sKNS holders, and with the remaining 50%, it purchases $KNS and provides liquidity to the $KLAY-$KNS pool. The LP tokens are managed by Treasury and become POL(Protocol Owned Liquidity).
