# Difuon Fog: Dual Tokenomics: Redemptive Benefit Token

A 2018 white paper describing a dual utility token model for the Difuon Fog platform: a medium-of-exchange token for stable, low-friction transactions and a store-of-value 'redemptive benefit token' designed to limit downward volatility and reward participation. Not about KERI; of historical interest only.

Labels: reading level Practitioner; evidence informative (an author's paper, deck, tutorial or post explaining the suite).
