# Why Hold $TRITON?

For utility projects having their own token, it is important to clarify to investors why you should hold their token. Investors have two primary reasons to hold $TRITON initially, while we reserve the right to add additional holder benefits in the future.\
\
**Revenue Sharing**\
As Triton generates revenue from trading and sniping activity, we aim to share a part of this revenue with holders of $TRITON periodically. Each month, and at the end of the month, we assess the generated profits and distribute 10%, a number that can be increased or decreased based on decisions from the team or feedback from the community, to holders of $TRITON. Revenue share is done in proportion to holdings. I.e., if you hold 1% in $TRITON, you are entitled to 1% of 10% of all revenue generated at the end of the month.\
\
Distribution of revenue, however, does not stop here. Triton distributes another 10% of all generated fees to users who refer others, distributed in proportion of the amount of referral points you have accrued. This mechanism is detailed more extensively in the [Other Features](/triton-sniper-product-docs/our-solution/other-features.md) chapter of this whitepaper, and is only for $TRITON holders as well.\
\
**As such, we distribute 20% of all generated fees to holders, giving us and investors a unique edge over competitive platforms.**\
\
*Please note that all revenue share comes from revenues/profits generated by our platform, and not from taxes generated by the $TRITON token. Moreover, to be eligible for any revenue share in a month, you must have traded through our platform in that specific month.* \
\
**Reduced Trading / Sniping Fees**\
While trading for holders and non-holders entail a similar amount of trading fees (as specified in [Manual Trading ](https://triton-sniper-product-docs.gitbook.io/triton-sniper-product-docs/our-solution/manual-trading)and [Sniping](https://triton-sniper-product-docs.gitbook.io/triton-sniper-product-docs/introduction/snipers) chapters, after the first month after $TRITON launches, holders of our token pay 0.1% less fees on both manual trades and snipes, giving a unique additional incentive to hold the $TRITON token.
