Revenue Model

Kage Network will have 4 primary sources of revenue:

  1. Router Sales: There will be an initial one-off fee to purchase a Kage VPN Router. This fee can be paid in ETH or USDT, with free or discounted routers available to people who hold threshold amounts of $KAGE tokens.

  2. Router Subscriptions: Owners of the Kage VPN Router will pay a monthly subscription fee.

  3. Decentralized Private Data Storage Network Subscriptions: In Stage 2, once the Kage Decentralized Private Data Storage Network is up-and-running, users without the VPN router will be able to secure their devices and store their data privately by using the network. They will be charged a subscription fee to be paid in $KAGE tokens.

  4. 5/5 $KAGE Buy/Sell Tax: In the initial bootstrapping phase, there will be a 5% buy and sell tax on trading of $KAGE tokens to fund the first 2 stages of the roadmap. Once subscription revenues come onstream, this will be phased out.

Profits from Router Subscriptions will be split as follows:

  • 80% to company operations

  • 20% to $KAGE stakers
