vLWK Utility Token · Whitepaper v1.0 · May 2026

The economic engine of the Linework app

vLWK is a utility token — a medium of exchange, not a security. It powers in-app payments, network rewards and protocol-level deflation across Linework's four consumer verticals.

Live today: vLWK Inside the Linework app vLWK is live today as an off-chain balance. It sits in your Linework wallet: you receive it through network rewards and in-app offers, and you spend it inside the app — Bloop stores, Linework Meet, push packages for sellers and Linework Fans, often with a bonus or a discount. Today vLWK is not yet on a blockchain: it is a balance in your Linework account. The on-chain version of vLWK described in this whitepaper will launch at the Token Generation Event (TGE).

Read before participating vLWK is designed and offered as a utility token, not a security. It does not represent equity, debt, profit-sharing, or any claim against Linework USA Inc. Holders get no governance rights, no dividend entitlement, and no redemption right against the issuer. The separately-issued LNWK security token, governed by TSEP v4.2 on linework.network, is an entirely different instrument with its own economics and regulatory framework. Nothing here is an offer to sell or solicitation to buy any security. The smart contracts deployed at TGE and audited by CertiK are the binding source of truth — this page is informational.

Section 01 — Vision

The bridge to the new economy

Linework is the consumer surface of an on-chain economy. Most consumer crypto products force a choice: a wallet without a marketplace, a marketplace without a social layer, a social network without a way to move value. Linework collapses the three — a self-custody wallet, a marketplace, and a feed where interactions can carry value, all sharing one identity and one currency: vLWK.

Spiral

Fractional access to real-world assets, principally real estate — buy, hold or trade exposure to property in any size, from a phone.

Bank

Multi-currency on-chain wallet with USDT/USDC bridge, instant swap and payment rails, built for crypto-native and non-native users alike.

NFT

A native marketplace for cultural assets, creator drops and digital collectibles — no extra wallet required.

Bloop

Social commerce and on-chain reputation, where audiences monetise directly and the platform retains a fraction.

A note on LNWK Linework also operates a regulated security token, LNWK, designed to be stable 1:1 with USDT and offered to accredited investors and institutional treasuries under the TSEP v4.2 framework on linework.network. vLWK and LNWK share a parent company but operate in separate regulatory regimes, with separate economics, holders and treasuries.

Section 02 — Utility

What vLWK does

vLWK is the medium of exchange for everything that happens inside the Linework app — three functions, all live the moment the token launches. Until then, in-app payments and rewards already run on vLWK, as an off-chain balance in the Linework wallet.

In-app payment

Every store transaction across the four verticals settles in vLWK — direct transfer to the merchant, creator or issuer, with a 1% Hub fee split between burn and Treasury.

Network reward

Actions that grow the network — providing liquidity, reaching a rank threshold, holding tokens over time — yield vLWK from the Ecosystem bucket (30% of supply).

Fee & gas

Network fees are paid in vLWK and partially rebated. Users interacting only via the dApp never need MATIC — the Hub absorbs gas at protocol level.

Composition of demand

Source	Mechanism	Pressure
Users	Acquire vLWK to spend in the app	Continuous, scales with active users
Creators / merchants	Receive vLWK, convert when needed (Hub burn applies)	Continuous, scales with activity
Speculators	Acquire vLWK as exposure to ecosystem growth	Cyclical, follows sentiment
Treasury buyback	Quarterly market-buy from app revenue	Counter-cyclical, supports price

Supply pressure is bounded and decreasing: vesting limits monthly release, continuous burn removes tokens on every Hub transaction, quarterly buyback cancels another tranche, and no minting occurs after TGE — 1B is the maximum supply that will ever exist. Demand grows with usage; supply shrinks with usage.

Section 03 — Tokenomics

1B vLWK, fixed and shrinking

One billion tokens are minted at the Token Generation Event. From that moment on, supply only goes down. Hover or tap a segment for detail.

Bucket	%	vLWK	Purpose
Ecosystem rewards	30%	300,000,000	Creator rewards, staking, LP mining, rank/retention bonuses, quests, education grants
Treasury (initial)	20%	200,000,000	Operations, audits, contingency, governed by Linework USA Inc. multisig
Fairlaunch	20%	200,000,000	Pool DEX at fairlaunch close — pricing discovered by market
Team	15%	150,000,000	Founder, early engineers, critical hires; 12mo cliff + 24mo linear
Migration	10%	100,000,000	LWC (Ethereum) redemption; 18mo linear vesting
Advisors	5%	50,000,000	Strategic advisors; 6mo cliff + 12mo linear
Total	100%	1,000,000,000

No bucket for "private investors" There is no private-sale bucket in this tokenomics and no insider rounds at discounted prices. The only public pricing event is the fairlaunch, and at that event everyone enters on identical terms.

Vesting schedules

All vesting is on-chain and enforced by a Vester contract. Toggle a bucket below to compare unlock curves over 42 months.

Section 07 — Deflation

Every transaction reduces supply

A uniform 1% fee applies on swaps, payments, tips and cross-chain bridging through the LinkSwap Hub — split 0.7% burn (destroyed forever) and 0.3% Treasury. Pure peer-to-peer transfers, liquidity provision and vested/migrated claims are fee-free.

Action	Fee	Burn	Treasury
Swap, payment, tip, bridge	1%	0.7%	0.3%
P2P transfer, LP, vesting claim	0%	—	—

Every quarter, 50% of net app revenue market-buys vLWK on the open DEX and burns it permanently; the other 50% is retained at Treasury in USDC. Modelling assumes 200M circulating vLWK at year 1 and daily Hub volume near 5% of circulating supply — conservative for a consumer app at scale.

Projected annual burn

Three years post-launch, roughly 17% of initial supply is destroyed under these conservative assumptions; with higher adoption the figure approaches 25–30%, comparable to the market's more aggressive deflationary tokens.

Section 08 — Treasury

Self-replenishing protocol fund

The Treasury is not a fixed reserve that depletes — it's a topped-up fund whose balance grows with usage. The 200M vLWK initial allocation covers the early period; four streams sustain it permanently.

Stream 1 — Hub fee split

0.3% of every Hub transaction in vLWK — an estimated 10–12M vLWK/year at 200M circulating supply and 5% daily volume.

Stream 2 — Quarterly revenue split

50% of net app revenue retained at Treasury in USDC as working capital; the compound effect scales with token price.

Stream 3 — Listing & promotion fees

Featured Shop (100 vLWK/week), Bloop boost (50 vLWK/day), NFT promotion (200 vLWK/listing), Spiral RWA listing (1,000 vLWK/launch).

Stream 4 — NFT royalty slice

2.5% creator + 1% Treasury on primary sales; 5% creator + 0.5% Treasury on secondary sales.

Governance of the Treasury

Controlled by a multisig requiring 4-of-7 approval: 3 Linework USA Inc. board signers, 2 external advisors, and 2 community-elected delegates rotating annually. Material actions above $50,000-equivalent carry an additional 48-hour public timelock before execution — a pattern borrowed from Aave, Compound and MakerDAO.

Self-sustaining by year 2 Under base-case assumptions, Treasury auto-replenishment exceeds operating expenses from year 2 onward — the 200M initial allocation is a runway buffer, not a continuous funding source.

Section 09 — Smart Contracts

Eight contracts, single responsibilities

Each contract has one job, and dependencies between them are explicit and audited. Tap a card for its responsibility.

01vLWK ERC-20

Standard fungible token. Mint authority restricted to Treasury, Bootstrap and Vester. Public burn().

02Bootstrap

Fairlaunch contract — collects USDC, computes commissions, executes burn-and-distribute, creates the initial DEX pool.

03Vester

Linear vesting for fairlaunch buyers (24mo), migration redeemers (18mo), team (12mo cliff + 24mo), advisors (6mo cliff + 12mo), treasury (6mo lock + 36mo).

04Claimer

Migration claim — verifies eligible predecessor-token balance proofs and credits the Vester schedule.

05CommissionDistributor

Holds USDC commissions for fairlaunch referrers post-close, with a public claim function.

06LinkSwap Hub

Router with burn+treasury fee split for swaps, payments and tips; aggregates routing across DEX venues.

07ShopPayments

Payment helper for in-app shop transactions across Spiral, NFT and Bloop — handles the 1% fee split before merchant settlement.

08TreasuryBuyback

Quarterly automated module — market-buys vLWK with 50% of treasury USDC revenue, then burns it.

Security primitives: OpenZeppelin Contracts as the base library, ReentrancyGuard on all value-handling functions, Checks-Effects-Interactions throughout, Pausable emergency response, SafeERC20 wrappers, pull-pattern claims, and fuzz testing on commission-split, vesting and swap math prior to audit submission.

Section 10 — Audit & Security

Independent verification is a precondition of TGE

Linework USA Inc. signed a Service Agreement with CertiK on April 28, 2026. The engagement covers static analysis of all 8 Solidity contracts, manual review by senior auditors, dynamic fuzz/invariant testing, economic and governance threat modelling, re-audit of any modified code, and publication of the final report on CertiK Skynet.

Skynet Boost

Continuous post-deployment monitoring — real-time security score, on-chain anomaly detection, governance change tracking, centralisation risk assessment, published at certik.com/projects/linework.

Anti-fraud

Sybil detection on referral graphs, anti-replay on migration claims, per-wallet rate limiting, MEV protection via private mempools, and a 1–2M vLWK bug bounty from the Ecosystem bucket.

Operational security

4-of-7 multisig for Treasury, 3-of-5 for emergency pause, 5-of-9 for protocol upgrade; hardware-secured signers; 48–72h timelock on material parameter changes.

Trust through verification No part of the vLWK launch relies on a promise. Contracts are public, auditable and immutable; multisig signers are identified; vesting is on-chain; burns are events; Treasury actions are timelocked. Every claim on this page can be checked against the deployed contracts.

Section 12 — Risks

Risk factors

Participation in vLWK carries substantial risk. This list is non-exhaustive and informs, rather than limits, each participant's duty to assess their own situation.

Regulatory risk

The legal classification of utility tokens varies across jurisdictions and is evolving. Despite Linework's good-faith design as a non-security utility token, regulators may reach different conclusions, impose restrictions or additional disclosures, or prohibit holding or trading vLWK in some jurisdictions.

Smart contract risk

Despite the CertiK audit and continuous monitoring, contracts may contain undiscovered bugs. An exploit may result in partial or total loss of funds. The audit report and bug bounty mitigate but do not eliminate this risk.

Market risk

vLWK is a market-priced asset whose price may fluctuate significantly and rapidly. Deflationary mechanisms support but do not guarantee value preservation; sentiment, macro conditions and liquidity all matter.

Liquidity risk

Initial DEX liquidity is determined by fairlaunch participation. In a low-fundraise scenario, liquidity may be thin and slippage high. The 80% Treasury-held LP mitigates but does not guarantee zero slippage on large orders.

Operational risk

Linework operates the supporting backend, indexers and dashboards. A failure of operations — key personnel loss, infrastructure outage, regulatory action — may impair user experience even as contracts continue functioning autonomously.

Migration risk

Holders of eligible predecessor tokens bear specific risks: the snapshot may miss unusual custody arrangements, signature-based wallet linking may be targeted by impersonation attempts, and total claims may exceed the migration cap and trigger a haircut.

Concentration risk

At TGE the Treasury is the largest single holder (20% of supply, plus 80% of LP). Governance is multisig and timelocked, but a coordinated action by signers could in principle materially affect the protocol.

Token type risk

vLWK is explicitly a utility token. Holders have no equity stake, no dividend right, no claim on corporate assets, and no voting power over the corporation. It should not be confused with an equity instrument.

Bottom line vLWK sits at the intersection of consumer crypto, social commerce and on-chain finance, and carries the full spectrum of risk associated with each category. Participants should size their involvement accordingly and only with capital they can afford to lose entirely.
