Introducing the Hivelist Token (LIST) on Hive-Engine

Hivelist Token (LIST) is built on the Hive Engine Scotbot platform. LIST is the native token for the Hivelist community. HiveList’s purpose is to bring a classifieds ad service and marketplace to the Hive blockchain. The purpose of the token is to reward members for using the community for posting their ads to the blockchain as well as for use as payment for services on the Hivelist.io site.

These services will include featured ads posts written by the Hivelist admin, promoted posts, front page and side bar advertisements, etc. Our hope is that it will also be used to trade goods and services on the Hivelist community in addition to Hive and any other currency people want to accept. Site fees may vary to compensate for the current price of LIST/HIVE market pairing on Hive-Engine.com. Announcements will be made in advance when the fees adjust. Fees will only adjust once every 24 hours.

Any services paid to @hivelist that are paid for in LIST tokens will be used to continue to reward the community and help onboard new members.

Token Economics

Total supply of LIST: 500,000,000 (500M) LIST

Initial issuance of LIST Token: 50,000,000 (50M) LIST to @hivelist.token to create the reward pool for future distribution from the Hivelist community.

Initial issuance date: May 22, 2020

Future issuances from Hive-Engine to the @hivelist.token rewards pool account will be issued by the @hivelist owner account when the @hivelist.token account reaches 5,000,000 (5M) available LIST tokens. Issuances will be made in amounts of 50,000,000 (50M) LIST.

More tokens will be released for sale on the Hive-Engine market as demand increases. Initial token sell orders will be placed from the @hivelist.token account. Any market maker sell orders from Hivelist will be done from the @hivelist.token account but only as needed to keep tokens flowing through the market.

Faucets and Sinks

You can think of the distribution of the supply of LIST and demand for the use-cases for a currency as faucets and sinks respectively. Faucets include distributing LIST through rewards, sales and signing up on https://hivelist.io. Sinks include accepting LIST for use cases like promotional services and accepting as currency for products and other services.
