Onyx rewards the people who grow the network. Every activation, referral, transaction, and renewal compounds into a system that returns value to participants and reinforces continued usage.
Token Framework
The ONYX token functions as the incentive layer of the network, tying measurable activity to long-term participation and aligning growth across users, communities, and partners. Distribution follows usage and participation determines outcomes.
Token Distribution & Emissions
ONYX operates with a fixed maximum supply, released through controlled, milestone-based distributions tied directly to network growth.
Distribution follows a seasonal structure:
• each season defines a fixed reward pool
• tokens release only after measurable network progress
• early distribution prioritizes activation and expansion
• later distribution shifts toward retention, spending, and sustained usage
Season 1 | TGE
Season 1 defines the initial growth phase of the network, running from launch through the Token Generation Event at 100,000 activated users. The period focuses on expansion, with incentives weighted toward actions that introduce new users and convert them into active participants.
Participation accumulates through Onyx Points, which track contribution across core network activity:
• user referrals
• connectivity activations
• subscription renewals
• card spending
• community participation
Points measure relative contribution within the network rather than absolute volume, aligning rewards with impact.
At the Token Generation Event, the first reward pool unlocks. Allocation follows total network contribution, with each participant receiving ONYX proportionally based on their share of points. Distribution reflects verified activity, ensuring that rewards follow real usage and engagement.
At the end of each reward cycle:
• total network points are calculated
• individual contribution share is determined
• rewards distribute proportionally
• the system resets for the next season
Season 1 establishes the network through measurable activity, with each cycle compounding participation and expanding distribution as adoption scales.
Staking & Membership Alignment
Staking ONYX expands access across the platform and strengthens long-term participation.
Staked tokens unlock:
• enhanced membership tiers
• increased reward multipliers
• premium card benefits
• expanded travel and partner access
Membership and staking operate as one system, reinforcing connectivity, payments, and real-world usage.
Network Effects
Participation compounds across the network:
• users bring in new users
• activity increases across connectivity and payments
• participation drives rewards
• rewards reinforce continued usage
The Onyx Token aligns connectivity, payments, and incentives into a single system where real usage drives participation, communities expand the network, and every action compounds into long-term value.
