# 🟠Mars Economy's Token

**The Decentralized Mars Token is first and foremost meant to support the colony on the Red Planet.**

Mars Token holders partake in governance by submitting and voting on project proposals. They also vote on which Mars projects should be incentivized by ecosystem tokens.

**Ecosystem pool** tokens will be gradually distributed among representatives advancing the colonization of Mars. Tokens from the strategic investors pool, ecosystem, fundraising and core team pools are distributed based on ongoing voting proposals. Core team tokens will be subject to a lock-in for two years.\\

The actual distribution will be carried out by means of **smart contract voting** by current Mars governance token holders. Common pool will be made gradually available for purchase via exchanges and DEXes, also by means of IEOs and IDOs. \\

Once the colonization of Mars is started, Decentralized Mars Token should become the exchange medium for the Martian financial ecosystem.&#x20;
