**The Qwoyn blockchain is a decentralized, application-specific platform for gaming and other services. While active development is focused on the deployment of Cosmic Horizon (a sci-fi trading/strategy MMRPG), the chain and its supportive modules are built to support the future deployment of other games and projects.**

### \-Genesis Allocations

#### Fundraising

**Qwoyn Studios is raising a portion of operating capital for Cosmic Horizon by performing a private token sale which will be used to support ongoing development and operating costs. Qwoyn Studios has allocated 550,000 $QWOYN tokens for this purpose. In the event not all tokens allocated to this purpose are sold, the remaining tokens will be distributed to non-sale allocations.**

#### Non-Sale Allocations

**Non-Sale Allocations will be distributed to Qwoyn Studios to ensure the longevity of the Cosmic Horizon project. These funds will be applied toward team allocations, marketing, community funding (such as the Crew3 ambassador program), and token swaps with current and future partners.**

#### Qwoyn Foundation

**Following the precedent set by other successful projects in the Cosmos ecosystem, and to further the betterment of society, QWYON Studios will set aside a portion of the genesis mint in a foundation pool. From the genesis mint 1.5M tokens will be distributed to the Qwoyn Foundation, which will in turn be dispersed to various Community Staking DAOs. As the funds are distributed to the individual DAOs they will be permanently locked and only the resulting staking rewards will be available for use. Of the 1.5M tokens, 500K will be controlled by the Qwoyn Foundation, while the remaining 1M are to be distributed to the Community Staking DAOs.**

#### Airdrop

**Of the initial 10M genesis tokens, 10% will be distributed as a protocol to protocol distribution i.e. airdrops to mission-aligned Cosmos communities. Each of these communities and their respective projects align strategically with our own, and Cosmic Horizon will utilize elements of each to enable or enhance various in-game mechanics and the overall gaming experience. There will additionally be one or more airdrops to Cosmic Horizon genesis NFT holders.**

#### Community Pool

**To support the long-term health of the chain, ten percent of the genesis token supply will be distributed to the Qwoyn Community Pool. This pool will be governed by, owned by and serve the Qwoyn community. Community governance ultimately decides how these funds are spent, but relevant examples could include: community driven development, improvement, growth and support of the Qwoyn ecosystem, supporting Qwoyn community growth, supporting development performed by mission aligned community members, and various other objectives the community has determined (via on-chain governance) should be undertaken.**

#### Testnet Distributions

**This allocation will be distributed to participants in the various Qwoyn testnets, who make up the genesis validator set.**
