# $CUBIX Token

### Overview

The <mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark> token is a utility token within the Realm of Cuboids. It is earned by holding a Cuboid NFT.&#x20;

<mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark> can be held and traded just like any other ERC-20 token, stored in Metamask or a compatible wallet. <mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark> is burned, or spent, in exchange for CUBOID upgrades and Realm Extensions.

### Supply

Token generation: Holding a genesis Cuboid NFT yields 10 <mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark> tokens per day, every day. [OG Cuboids](/cubepaper/gameplay/cuboids/cuboid-nfts/og-cuboids.md) earn 20 <mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark> tokens per day.

<mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark> accrued can be viewed and claimed from the official dashboard available on the website.

<mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark>**&#x20;will eventually become deflationary via "The Realm's Treasure" periodic burning and holders will be incentivized to hold.**

### Uses

<mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark> can be spent (**Burned**) to perform actions on Cuboids, as follows:

* You can RENAME your Cuboid by spending some <mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark>.
* You can set the STORY (a kind of biography) of your Cuboid by spending some <mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark>.
* If you hold 2 or more Cuboids, you can spend <mark style="color:blue;">**$CUBIX**</mark> to **EVOLVE** them thereby, burning your Cuboids.
