# $JAIL Token

## $JAIL Tokens: The Future of the JailbreakMe Ecosystem

### Overview

$JAIL tokens are designed to be the **native currency of the JailbreakMe dApp**, serving as the backbone of the platform's economy. While the full utility of $JAIL tokens will roll out in future updates, the groundwork is being laid to ensure their value and relevance within the ecosystem.

### Current Use Case: Buyback Program

To kickstart the $JAIL token economy, the developers have implemented a **buyback mechanism**:

1. **Prize Pool Allocation**:\
   A portion of every prize pool is allocated to **buy back $JAIL tokens** from the market. This creates consistent demand for the token.
2. **Market Impact**:
   * The buybacks help support the token's value by reducing the circulating supply.
   * This strategy establishes a strong foundation for the $JAIL token economy as the platform scales.

#### 2. **Rewards System**
