# The $PVP token

$PVP will serve as the native in-game currency within Eden: Discovery. It is the fuel of the wasteland economy. Players will use $PVP to acquire weapons, ammunition, gear, land, and cosmetic upgrades. As in any real economy, a financial layer is critical to facilitate both survival and progression. Whether through NPC vendors, direct player-to-player trading, or buy-ins for tournaments, $PVP acts as the unit of account that powers all activity inside Eden.

Thriving in Eden requires more than a sharp aim. Every raid carries risk, and players must decide how much gear to bring, how much currency to risk, and when to extract to secure their spoils. Entering player-hosted tournaments requires $PVP as buy-ins, with winners claiming the pooled rewards. Future creator-driven maps and modes will also use $PVP for access fees and monetization, ensuring that both players and creators share in the economy. 

## Circularity

A sustainable token economy in Eden relies on a fully circular system where every inflow creates new opportunities for outflow and reinvestment. $PVP enters the ecosystem through in-game sales, taxation, and tournament buy-ins, while unclaimed tokens are recycled back into the treasury. From there, value flows outward as mission rewards, staking incentives, and player-driven payouts, ensuring constant activity and utility. At the same time, players spend $PVP on weapons, skins, consumables, land, loot boxes, and more, creating demand and fueling the cycle. Tournament rewards, renting, insurance, and trading further keep tokens moving between players. This closed-loop system ensures that $PVP is never idle; it continually circulates, driving both gameplay and community engagement while securing long-term stability for the economy.
