# What is $GRASS?

First created on 21st April 2022, GRASS is the native utility token for GOAT Tribe.

The total supply of GRASS is capped at 27,182,818. This number is a reference to Euler's Number, a naturally occurring mathematical constant relating to exponential growth.

## Utility

### Fee Reduction

Initial utility associated with $GRASS will be tied to the GOAT Tribe marketplace, where users will have the option to use our native token to cover up to 25% of fees. Furthermore, developments are  underway to allow transactions to be made on marketplaces, including our own, entirely in $GRASS.

In addition to this, we are investigating the potential for use of $GRASS for the purchase of physical items within our store.

### Smoking $GRASS

From the point of implementation of $GRASS as a fee reduction token on the GOAT Tribe marketplace and for every 18 epochs, fees earned from transactions of this nature will be burned, removing them from circulating supply.

### Rewarding Interaction

To help onboard users and engage through distribution, $GRASS will also be democratically distributed as an award for engagement, interaction and participation in our ecosystem.

### Connect with Community

Further utility of the $GRASS token currently being researched is associated with the GOAT Tribe store and interactive media.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://goat-tribe.gitbook.io/goat-tribe/usdgrass/what-is-usdgrass.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
