Tokenize Xchange (TKX)

Tokenomics & Utility

From exchange token to network gas

TKX started as an exchange utility token providing perks on Tokenize Xchange. With Titan Chain’s launch, TKX became the chain’s gas token, similar in role to ETH on Ethereum or MATIC on Polygon. That means any smart‑contract call or token transfer on Titan consumes TKX. This shift broadened the token’s base utility from fee rebates on a single platform to infrastructure‑level demand across an EVM network. (globenewswire.com)

Network security and staking

In a proof‑of‑stake setting, validators and delegators stake TKX to secure the chain. Rewards are distributed to participants according to the protocol’s rules. This creates an incentive loop: TKX is not only spent for transactions but also bonded for security, which can align long‑term holders with network health. Public materials from Titan’s partners highlight this staking‑and‑validation role. (nansen.ai)

Exchange‑side membership and features

On the exchange side, TKX underpins Tokenize’s membership tiers. Premium‑style tiers are paid in TKX, and higher tiers require staking TKX for the membership period to unlock lower trading fees and other benefits. While these benefits are commercial decisions of the exchange (and can evolve), the underlying design uses TKX as the medium for subscriptions and staking commitments tied to account perks.

Builder incentives and grants

To cultivate apps and liquidity, Tokenize and Titan Lab announced a developer grant program denominated in TKX. Grants aim to fund dApps, DeFi protocols, and integrations that broaden Titan’s on‑chain economy and, by extension, TKX’s utility. (globenewswire.com)
