$MGS is an ERC20 utility token for The Magus World. $MGS will serve as the medium of exchange for our marketplace. The items that can be purchased from our marketplace with $MGS include WL from various projects and trading tools as well.

### **TOKEN ALLOCATION**

The total supply of the $MGS token is 200 million and will be pre-minted in our Magus Vault.

Here is the breakdown of our $MGS supply allocation:

* 50% Staking - 100 million of $MGS supply will be available for holders to claim when they stake their NFTs.
* 20% Liquidity Pool - 20% of supply will be set aside for our liquidity pool. The pool will open up with 50% of its supply, which is 20 million $MGS. More $MGS will be fed into the pool when needed. 
* 15% Deflationary Protection - This amount of supply will be set aside for burning in the event that our token becomes hyperinflationary.
* 10% Game Ecosystem - This amount will be kept as a reward for holders when we host games or draws.
