# Overview

## $PLT

**PLT** enables users to effectively become a shareholder in the Plateau Finance platform and receive a distribution equal to 50% of our platform harvest fee. Allowing users to earn rewards that grow directly along side us with our TVL.

**PLT** is designed to be deflationary, offering a competitive variable passive burn rate fee of 1%, and a 1% fee used to form PLT-AVAX. This allows users to gain value from passively holding the token as well as keeping slippage between the platform's main pairs reasonably low.

* Protocol Token
* Variable fee engineered to create deflationary pressure (**1%** Burn)
* 1% of Transaction Fees is transformed into LP tokens (PLT-AVAX LP) and locked indefinitely in the Ecosystem Fund to ensure slippage is kept to a minimum.
* Stake PLT to earn more PLT via the Plateau fee batch mechanic equal to **50%** of the platforms Harvest Fee, distributed in the $PLT staking pool.
* **12.5%** of the platforms Harvest Fee will be used to create PLT-AVAX LP tokens and rewarded to PLT-PLT-AVAX Stakers
* PLT-PLT, will be provided to the individual staking $PLT as a representation of their share in the pool.
* PLT-PLT token holders will have voting power when the DAO is implemented.
* Holding PLT-PLT makes you eligible for partner airdrops.

## $PLT-LP
