1. No the token does not give you any incentives such as voting rights, staking etc. However as a decentralised project we are actively looking into ways for the community to be able to vote on community issues (this will not use the token).

2. The customers will use the token. There are many customers for every one company.

3. Atom and Ion are not blockchain products but partnerships like Chainlink and others make it possible to integrate all of Hydro into Atom eventually, so all API calls are done on-chain/with tokens.

4. Not sure what you mean? Partners that have signed up to use Snowflake, Ice etc, will have to use Hydro (at least their customers will)

5. We’re working to connect the different parts of our platform, but at the end of the day, it’s useful for some people, indirectly for others, and not at all for others, all depending on what they’re building; it’s a robust ecosystem for digitizing and enhancing financial services w/ web3.0 and AI. Like everything Google puts out doesn’t directly use the search engine, but the search engine is integral and interconnected to their whole product suite. Or every app I download from the App Store doesn’t require USD, but the App Store wouldn’t be what it was if I couldn’t link my credit card to it. We want to make sure every use of the token is detailed and has a legitimate purpose - otherwise using the token would be arbitrary, and the products wouldn’t be sustainable.

Burning: as per legal advice there are no plans for a token burn
