What Is Glimmer GLMR Token?
Glimmer (GLMR) is the utility and governance token of the Moonbeam Network. Moonbeam is an Ethereum-compatible smart contract platform, which operates as a Polkadot parachain.
The platform aims to extend Ethereum’s capabilities by including on-chain governance, staking, and cross-chain integration features. Derek Yoo of Pure Stake, a blockchain tools and infrastructure company, launched the Moonbeam project in Jan 2020.
The Moonbeam project takes advantage of Polkadot’s speed and bridging properties while also including EVM capabilities for developers. The project also provides an API to facilitate greater Web 3.0 access and ease of use.
In essence, the Moonbeam project acts as a bridge between Polkadot and Ethereum, allowing developers and users to work with both blockchains. In addition, the project provides permissionless dApps, EVM collaboration, substrate-compatible tools, and other unique features to create an interconnected ecosystem.
Moonbeam’s native token, Glimmer, has a total supply of 1,000,000,000 GLMR tokens, with an initial market cap of $13.75 million. Moreover, the GLMR token allows users to participate in governance, pay transaction fees, and earn rewards by providing liquidity and staking.
For staking, users need to stake a minimum amount of 50 GLMR. However, to earn rewards, the staked amount must be among the top 100 of the user’s collator. The Glimmer token’s tokenomics burn 80% of the transaction fees, and the remaining 20% goes to the network’s treasury, with an annual inflation rate equal to 5% of the uncapped supply.
