# Protocol Revenue Sharing

Tezforge is built to reward the builders and supporters who help grow the ecosystem. By staking **$FORGE**, users earn a share of the revenue generated across the Tezforge platform.

**Revenue Sources**

Tezforge generates revenue through:

* Launchpad fees – Fees from token and project launches.
* Builder tools – Revenue from premium tools and platform services.
* Promotion & featured listings – Fees for enhanced project visibility.
* Platform services – Revenue from utilities such as liquidity lockers and other infrastructure modules.

**Distribution Model**

All protocol revenue is allocated as follows:

* 60% to $FORGE stakers – Distributed proportionally based on the amount of $FORGE staked.
* 40% to ecosystem growth – Reinvested into product development, security, partnerships, grants, marketing, and expanding the Tezforge ecosystem.

**How to Earn**

* Stake $FORGE to earn a share of protocol revenue.
* Support the ecosystem by launching projects, using Tezforge tools, and contributing to platform activity.
* Grow with Tezforge — as platform usage increases, so do the rewards available to $FORGE stakers.
