## What does the token do?

The $IAG token powers IAGON's Shared Storage Economy Ecosystem. It’s an ERC-20 token for now with the plan to be adopted for Cardano blockchain as well.

$IAG tokens give you access to a passive revenue stream and multiple utilities, which is why they can be potentially valuable:

* **Commit Storage** to earn fees in stable coins and get additional rewards in $IAG as a resource provider. 

* **Stake $IAG** to earn a portion of the transaction fees from the decentralized storage marketplace.

* **Delegate** to Iagon’s Cardano Staking Pool to get $IAG rewards as an ADA holders.
