The LOD3 DAO operates as a decentralized autonomous organization enabling users to participate in decision-making processes that shape the future of the ecosystem. It is deployed on Avalanche C-Chain. The $LOD3 Token is the native governance and utility token of the LODE DAO Ecosystem. It is a decentralized platform designed to tokenize precious metals such as gold and silver.

The $LOD3 Token plays a central role within this ecosystem, serving multiple purposes:

• Governance: LOD3 Holders can stake their tokens to participate in governance, vote on proposals, and influence the direction of the project. This ensures a community-driven approach where every token holder has a say.
  
  
• Utility: LOD3 is used within the LOD3 Ecosystem to facilitate various transactions, including staking, earning rewards, and accessing premium features of the LODE Wallet and other related services.
  
  
• Rewards Generator: Through the LOD3 Rewards Generator (RG3N), $LOD3 stakers can earn rewards over time, incentivizing active participation and contributing to the stability and growth of the ecosystem. The ecosystem also includes AUX (digital gold) and AGX (digital silver) Coins, each backed by physical reserves of their respective metals, providing a tangible and stable store of value.
  

LOD3 DAO is committed to democratizing access to precious metals by integrating them into the decentralized finance (DeFi) space. The $LOD3 Token and its associated features enable users to seamlessly transition between traditional and digital assets, offering a secure, transparent, and community-driven platform for precious metals investment.
