# Tokenomics
Energy Crisis is a gamified project built on the Core, where $Oil is the primary token used for transactions, production activities, user incentives, and ecosystem governance. As the primary medium of exchange, $Oil plays a vital role in the functioning of the game.
The total supply of $Oil is capped at 21 billion for each chain, and it will be distributed between the Basic Mining Pool and the Business Warfare Mining Pool.
* The initial reward for Basic Mining Pool is 512 $Oil per second, halving every three months until it reaches 1 $Oil per second.\
\
The intital reward fo Business Warfare Mining Pool is 150 $Oil per second but subject to changes in the future.
95% of $Oil will be distributed to users as game rewards, with only 5% used for team development and initial liquidity.
USDT or Core paid for oil field NFTs, exploration missions, and other game functions will be used to repurchase $Oil. Of this:
* 90% will be burned
* 5% will be used for OpecDao
* 3% will be used for marketing, technical development, and project operations
* 2% as team rewards
{% hint style="info" %}
For the health of the ecosystem, we impose a 10% selling tax for the $Oil token, which 90% will be burnt and 10% will go to OpecDao, marketing/operation and the team.
