Blockchain/Token FAQs

Why is the Blockchain important to Bolt Global?

What is the purpose of the Bolt token?

The BOLT Token is the underlying core token of the BOLT ecosystem, used as a primary means of value exchange between BOLT participants - whether they are users, streamers, or brands.
Users are able to tip their favourite streamers in BOLT+, earn tokens from BOLT sponsors within BOLT+, or pay for an ad-free subscription in BOLT+ using the BOLT Token.
The BOLT Token’s core issuance is on the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain, which can be verified by this smart contract address.
BOLT’s core token utility use cases on Ethereum include trading on exchanges such as KuCoin, Uniswap and Ascendex. BOLT is available to be traded to Ethereum (ETH), Tether (USDT), and Bitcoin (BTC)
For purposes of other token utility use cases, which require fast, cheap and scalable smart contract processing, the BOLT Token is issued on the Zilliqa (ZIL) blockchain. The smart contract address is verified here.
For advanced users, BOLT holders can seamlessly swap their BOLT from ETH to ZIL using the Token Bridge function on boltx.finance.
Other functions available for advanced users include liquidity pool provision, token swaps, and bidding for NFTs on boltx.finance.
We are also in the process of evaluating other blockchain platforms to support within the BOLT ecosystem.
