The PRESS token is the economic engine that powers the entire Press Blockchain ecosystem. It represents truth liquidity – the value of verified information. Every action within the network, from article publication to peer verification, flows through PRESS as the unit of incentive, trust, and governance.
PRESS is earned by journalists for verified reporting and by readers who participate in validation. It fuels the Proof of Press consensus, compensating validators who uphold the integrity of the network. The token can be used for staking, governance proposals, PressPro subscriptions, and reward distribution, ensuring that value always returns to the community maintaining the truth.
Deflationary by design, PRESS includes transparent emission and burn mechanics. Its tokenomics align long-term incentives for journalists, validators, and token holders, creating a circular economy around credibility. PRESS is more than currency – it’s proof that truth itself has value.
