# Blockchain & Smart Contract Design

The Lukas Token will be implemented as an **ERC‑20** or comparable token on an Ethereum‑compatible proof‑of‑stake network. \
\
The choice of chain ensures high security, wide wallet support, and lower transaction fees compared with older proof‑of‑work chains. 

Smart contracts will manage staking, event revenue allocation, and in‑game mechanics.

* **Token issuance:** The total supply is minted at deployment, and no further minting occurs. After the initial mint, tokens are going to be deposited to the smart contracts.
* **Staking contract:** Holders can deposit tokens into the staking pool. The contract tracks staking balances, calculates reward shares based on staked amount and duration.
* **Game contracts:** For play‑to‑earn games, on‑chain contracts will verify game outcomes and distribute rewards. Off‑chain game engines will communicate with the blockchain to record scores and trigger payments.
* **Governance:** Token holders may propose and express opinion on future upgrades, event schedules, or allocation changes. A simple governance module can be added once the community grows.
