Here’s some more information about this asset:
VeThor (VTHO)
VeThor (VTHO) is the utility token used exclusively to pay for transaction fees and smart contract executions on the VeChainThor blockchain. It functions as the network’s “gas,” where the total cost of any on-chain operation is determined by the amount of computation required (gas) multiplied by the gas price.To ensure cost predictability for enterprises and developers, VeChainThor utilizes a dual-token system. This model separates the market value of the primary asset, VeChain (VET), from the cost of network usage (VTHO).
VTHO is generated as a function of total VET staked, in accordance with a pre-defined issuance curve. The token is issued to users who stake VET on VeChain’s StarGate staking platform, acting as a reward in exchange for helping to secure and decentralize the blockchain.
Please note:
- Trading via Kraken App and Instant Buy will be available once the liquidity conditions are met (when a sufficient number of buyers and sellers have entered the market for their orders to be efficiently matched).
- Geographic restrictions may apply
Will Kraken make more assets available?
Yes! But our policy is to never reveal any details until shortly before launch – including which assets we are considering. All of Kraken’s available tokens can be found here, and all future tokens will be announced on our Listings Roadmap and social media profiles. Our client engagement specialists cannot answer any questions about which assets we may be making available in the future.
