# Tokenomics

Neverland's token economy is designed to balance long-term sustainability, transparent governance, and controlled emissions. The native token, **Pixie Dust (DUST)**, powers every aspect of the protocol — from governance participation through **veDUST**, to liquidity incentives and deflationary mechanisms that strengthen value over time.

Neverland integrates several mechanisms to ensure that circulating supply decreases over time, reinforcing the value of DUST and rewarding long-term commitment.

Together, these mechanisms balance emissions and deflation, aligning protocol growth with token scarcity and long-term holder value.
