# Token Economic System

Cronos Gems aims to leverage $GEMS as economic incentives, motivating users to actively engage in ecosystem activities. This strategy is implemented to secure the long-term viability and expansibility of the ecosystem.

**The underlying mechanism serves two core purposes:**

* Encourage players to participate in Cronos Gems Game, rewarding their engagement and promoting token use for transactions to build a healthy internal economy.
* Establish ownership and governance for the decentralized Cronos Gems.
