The Gloam token

$GLOAM

Private money is coming onchain, and $GLOAM holders get a say in where it goes. Live on Robinhood Chain.

Built to last

$GLOAM has been live for a while. We let it sit quietly and put every hour into the rails first. Now the token goes to work.

500,000

Fixed supply. The contract has no way to mint more.

Locked

The launch liquidity is locked for good.

No presale

Every token started in the pool. No team allocation.

Robinhood Chain

Live on mainnet today, launched on Orynth.

What it does

Four jobs for one token

01Governance

Holders vote on what Gloam does next: new assets, new chains, deposit limits and fees. The first votes run in the open. Private voting, where you prove your balance without showing your wallet, comes after.

First vote at mainnet

02Buybacks

At mainnet, deposits and private payments are free and cash-outs carry a 0.25% fee. Half of Gloam's fees buy $GLOAM from the market: half of that is burned, half goes to the Gloam treasury.

Starts when fees go live

03Private holding

The Robinhood Chain mainnet pool lists $GLOAM next to USDG. Shield it and your balance leaves the public record, and you can still prove it to someone when you need to.

At mainnet

04First access

Holders get new Gloam features first, from agent tools to payroll upgrades.

After mainnet

Questions

What holders ask

What is it for, besides governance?
Buybacks tie it to how much Gloam gets used, you can hold it privately in the vault from mainnet, and holders get new features first.
How much does the team hold?
None. There was no team allocation and no presale, so there is nothing to vest or unlock. Every token started in the pool, and the launch liquidity is locked.
Then how is the team paid?
By the product, not the token. From mainnet a cash-out carries a 0.25% fee: half of Gloam's fees run the team and the service, half buy back $GLOAM. Orynth also pays a small creator fee on trades. Payroll and API fees come later.
Burned or kept?
Half of every buyback is burned, so the supply only goes down. The other half goes to the Gloam treasury.
Is there staking?
Not for yield. Later, relayers that help run Gloam will stake $GLOAM to take part.
Is there an airdrop for testnet users?
Nothing is decided. If that changes, you will hear it from @gloamtrade on X first.

Contract

Check it yourself

Always copy the address from here or from @gloamtrade on X. Anything else claiming to be $GLOAM is not ours.

No promises on price. $GLOAM is a governance and utility token. It is not a share in Gloam and not a claim on its revenue: buybacks are how Gloam uses part of its fees, not a payout to holders. Nothing here is financial advice. Read the risk disclosures.
