Q2. From @SawsanTefa Unfortunately, many projects have penetrated the market with white papers just without real use cases. What is the main purpose of your coin?
Terry L. : AC token is the governance token for the ACoconut project. It serves a few purpose
1/ AC can be locked for vAC. Wv the vAC user can vote in the governance portal
2/ AC is also used to incentivize users for depositing into our strategies
3/ AC is used in insurance reserve pool. Users can purchase insurance cover with AC and any potential losses would be paid out in AC
4/ AC is also bought back in the open market with performance fees collected to replenish mining pools. Keeping inflationary pressure to an extent
Q3. From @kenny_kimora
Regarding cross-chain issues such as extremely slow speeds and high costs, how will NUTSfinance deal with them ??
Terry L. : So the ACoconut product suite is launched on both bsc and Ethereum
In cases of extreme high gas costs, we would encourage users to use bsc
on the Ethereum side, we are working on scaling solution platforms such as matic
Which could help improve transaction speed
however, we aim to deploy our? solutions on multiple networks
So users have options to choose in case of network bottlenecks

Can you share your Revenue and income generating strategies with us? How do you ensure investing in your project is a win win for both the project and we the investors?
