# Tokens

the DLBS network is powered by the following tokens: DLBS, Mom, and Child tokens. Tailored to different target audiences, each token plays a pivotal role in maintaining a balanced incentive system.

1. **DLBS Token**: The DLBS Token is the central force in our network, powering a wide array of functionalities. Entity owners can stake these tokens to enable gasless transactions for customers. Furthermore, DLBS Token holders can participate in governance voting and earn Mom Tokens through staking, making it a dynamic and versatile asset within our ecosystem.
2. **Mom Token**: The Mom Token operates as the community currency, fueling interactions between businesses and consumers. It is essential in the creation and operation of Child Tokens. The Mom Token can be earned through DAO events, gameplay on DLBS powered apps, and DLBS token staking. It also facilitates the creation of Child Tokens through an innovative bonding curve system.
3. **Child Tokens**: Child Tokens are user created custom ERC-20 tokens, minted via the DLBS protocol. They offer native liquidity, backed by the Mom collateral smart contract, enabling anyone to trade these tokens without requiring specific trading pairs or liquidity pools. The supply of these tokens constantly fluctuates, growing with purchases and shrinking with sales.

Together, the DLBS, Mom, and Child Tokens form a vibrant, interconnected ecosystem, each serving distinct roles to create a balanced and dynamic decentralized network.
