The TSS Token

The $TSS token is the heartbeat of the privacy ecosystem. It is designed to capture value from protocol usage while providing essential utility for governance and fee management.

1. Native Privacy (Go Dark)

Unlike typical governance tokens that expose your voting habits and holdings, $TSS supports Confidential Transfers.

• Public Mode: Freely trade $TSS on exchanges and AMMs.

• Private Mode: Wrap $TSS into its shielded form to vote, hold, or transfer without revealing your balance to the public ledger.

2. Fee Abstraction (The "No-ETH/SOL" Feature)

A major friction point in crypto privacy is needing ETH or SOL for gas in a fresh wallet, which can link your identity. TSS solves this.

• For Non-Holders: If you use the protocol without holding $TSS, a small "convenience fee" is deducted from your transaction (e.g., in USDC) to pay the Relayer for gas.

• For $TSS Holders: If you hold a minimum balance of $TSS, you qualify for Fee Rebates. The protocol waives the convenience fee, allowing you to transact privately at a discount.

3. Governance

$TSS holders govern the protocol's compliance parameters.

• Vote on Collateral Types: Decide which assets (e.g., USDT, DAI) are added to the anonymity set.

• Manage the Merkle Root: Vote on updates to the compliance blacklist to ensure the protocol remains secure against illicit actors.
