### $gSNAKE Token Distribution

**$gSNAKE** (Snake Shares) has a **maximum total supply of 70,000 tokens**, strategically distributed to balance growth, development, and community involvement:

* **59,700 $gSNAKE Shares** distributed as farming rewards over 2 years.
* **10,000 $gSNAKE Shares** allocated to developers, vested linearly over 2 years.
* **300 $gSNAKE Shares** minted at contract creation for initial liquidity purposes.

This allocation ensures a healthy balance between incentivizing participants, supporting development efforts, and providing liquidity to the protocol.

### Treasury Purpose & Investment Strategy

The treasury is a vital component of Snake Finance, acting as a growth engine and safety net for the protocol. It is designed to be actively managed and invested in opportunities that align with the interests of the community.

#### **Investment Highlights:**

* **Protocol Investments:** The treasury will invest in **leading DeFi protocols** and **farming opportunities**, starting with **Shadow**, to generate yield and further grow the protocol’s value.
* **Community Governance:** All treasury investments will be subject to community governance. **$gSNAKE holders** can propose and vote on investment strategies, ensuring transparency and alignment with the community's vision.

By actively managing the treasury, Snake Finance aims to:

1. **Enhance Protocol Value:** Increase the utility and value of $SNAKE and $gSNAKE over time.
2. **Provide Long-Term Sustainability:** Use yield-generating opportunities to fund development and ecosystem growth.
