# Tokenomics (KALE)
Bluelight has a special in-game currency called **$KALE** which is a cross chain token.
Players earn and spend $KALE tokens in the game and on the official game marketplace.
### Anatomy
**$KALE** is a cross-chain ERC-20 / BEP-20 fungible token. Token will be issued on the Ethereum blockchain but can be easily transferred to BNB Chain.
The main gameplay and token spend / earnings will take place on BNB blockchain. This gives a lot of benefits to players, including fast cheap transactions, accessibility and stability.
When the token is being moved from one chain to another using a teleport mechanism, smart contracts will make sure that the total circulating amount of tokens across all chains will remain the same.
Game’s smart contracts are open sourced and will be available on the official github repository.
### Allocation and release schedule
The maximum supply of tokens will not exceed 10,000,000,000 $KALE which are planned to be allocated and released on a predetermined schedule according to the following table:
**Player rewards** tokens will start being issued in eual portions over the period of 60 months and will be distributed to players as they progress the game. Also, a portion of this pool will be used for staking rewards available later.
**Foundation** tokens will be released with an equal amount each month over the period of 60 months. These tokens will be used to support the community and the ecosystem, offering grants to create high quality in-game content and applied products.
**Team and founders**’ tokens will be released gradually with an equal amount each month, over the period of 60 months. These tokens will be used to incentivise the development team and key personnel.
**Marketing** tokens will be released with an equal amount each month over the period of 24 months. Marketing funds will be spent on influencers and promotional activities around the web to bring players on board the new game.
**Liquidity pool** tokens will be issued on day one and will provide token liquidity on various DEX exchanges. Profits of the sale will be used to buy backs and support of token liquidity across all chains.
**Advisors**’ tokens will be released over the period of 12 months and will be reserved to reward top advisors that help with strategic development and plan the game’s economics.
