# DEX Tokenomics

$[9INCH](/9inch-gitbook/tokenomics/9inch-token.md) is the governance/DAO token of the 9inch.io DEX.

**DAO** will be used to vote for community token farms.

$[9INCH](/9inch-gitbook/tokenomics/9inch-token.md) max token supply is 999,999,999,999 on both chains and is deflationary.

The whole $[9INCH](/9inch-gitbook/tokenomics/9inch-token.md) supply was minted at launch. No additional tokens can ever be minted.

$[BBC](/9inch-gitbook/tokenomics/bbc-token.md) aka **Big Bonus Coin** is the reward token, that can be earned by [providing liquidity](/9inch-gitbook/tips-tricks-and-guides/beginners-guide-to-defi/how-to-add-remove-liquidity.md) and staking the [LP tokens in a farm](/9inch-gitbook/tips-tricks-and-guides/beginners-guide-to-defi/how-to-use-farms.md). Other way to get $[BBC](/9inch-gitbook/tokenomics/bbc-token.md) is to [single side stake](/9inch-gitbook/tips-tricks-and-guides/beginners-guide-to-defi/how-to-stake.md) a supported token, though rewards are much higher on LP farming.

Part of the DEX [trading fees](/9inch-gitbook/features/fees.md) are used to [buy and burn](/9inch-gitbook/features/burning.md) the $[9INCH](/9inch-gitbook/tokenomics/9inch-token.md) and the reward token $[BBC](/9inch-gitbook/tokenomics/bbc-token.md).

PulseChain and Ethereum versions of tokens behave independently and price is reflected how the market values each side. Tokens are not interchangeable even though they can be brided to the other chain. As of writing there is e9INCH / p9INCH farm on PulseChain, that pairs with the 9INCH token bridged from Ethereum to PulseChain.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://9inch.gitbook.io/9inch-gitbook/features/dex-tokenomics.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
