gor morning, grouchy folks!
as many of you have noticed, our RPC has been going down intermittently
after investigation, we’ve decided to separate the voting and non-voting validators
this means the RPC will be deployed independently, allowing community members to host and run their own RPC nodes as well
currently, trash devs are working on setting up the new RPC node, and we’ll soon have a community call where we’ll walk everyone through how to set up their own RPC node
till then, stay trashy 🗑️
gorbagio!
ayeee why are you still fading TRASHCOIN?
you might be wondering what's the utility, well here you go: A Peer-to-Peer Trash System
you smell that? $GOR mainnet is out soon and you cannot hide from the stinch.
BTW mint your TRASHCOIN here with my reff:

Disclaimer: This is my version of how the token’s utility could be structured to help back the chain and give both traders and institutions confidence within the ecosystem, while fully leveraging the infrastructure of FOGOchain.
@FogoChain is designed for perpetual contract (perps) traders, focusing on professionals seeking speed, security, low fees, and institutional adoption. The native token, $FOGO, must become the driving force of the ecosystem: a source of liquidity, network security, governance, and long-term sustainability.
The following proposal outlines a comprehensive framework of utilities and deflationary mechanisms to sustain $FOGO’s value, align trader incentives, and build trust with institutional players.
1. Core Utility of $FOGO
-Gas fees: $FOGO serves as the fuel for transactions and smart contract execution on the blockchain.
-Trading collateral: $FOGO can be used as collateral directly in perpetual positions.
-Fee discounts: Traders who use $FOGO as collateral or fee payment receive reduced trading costs, incentivizing adoption over other assets.
2. Dual Staking: Security and Revenue-Sharing
-Validators & institutions: Network validators stake $FOGO to secure the chain.
-Revenue-sharing with stakers: A portion of perps DEX trading fees is redistributed to $FOGO stakers, creating passive income and promoting token retention.
-Regulated slashing: Negligent or malicious validators lose part of their stake, ensuring long-term trust and system security.
3. Governance with Institutional Focus
-Trader DAO: $FOGO holders vote on critical parameters (fees, leverage limits, liquidity risk settings).
-Institutional council: Institutions are granted a governance role to validate compliance upgrades (KYC/AML, audits, reporting).
-Transparency: All governance activity is logged on-chain with third-party audit options for legal assurance.
4. Buybacks for Treasury Support
-A portion of fees collected in fUSD is allocated to buy back $FOGO on the open market.
-The repurchased tokens may be:
Stored in treasury as long-term reserves.
-Used for incentives such as validator rewards or institutional adoption programs.
Benefit: Creates sustained demand for $FOGO while strengthening treasury reserves for ecosystem growth.
5. $FOGO as Collateral to Mint fUSD
-Users lock $FOGO in vaults to mint fUSD, the native stablecoin used for perps trading.
-Overcollateralization: A safe ratio (e.g., 150–170%) is enforced to ensure stability.
Benefits:
Increases $FOGO’s utility as a necessary asset to generate trading liquidity.
Ensures fUSD is always backed by valuable on-chain assets.
-Future expansion: Multi-currency stablecoins such as fEUR or fJPY can also be minted with $FOGO as base collateral.
6. Token Burn Mechanism: “The Flame” 🔥
Burn on fUSD minting:
Each time fUSD is minted using $FOGO as collateral, a small percentage (0.25–0.5%) of $FOGO is permanently burned.
Higher demand for fUSD = more $FOGO burned.
Partial fee burn:
A fraction of all fees collected in fUSD is converted into $FOGO buybacks + token burns.
Benefits:
Creates a positive deflationary cycle tied to ecosystem growth.
Reinforces the narrative of FOGO (“the flame burns brighter with use”).
Directly aligns trading activity with token scarcity and long-term sustainability.
Conclusion
The $FOGO token becomes a multi-functional cornerstone of the ecosystem:
Liquidity: Collateral to mint fUSD, the backbone of perps trading.
Security: Staked by validators and institutions to secure the network.
Governance: Decentralized yet institution-ready, ensuring regulatory confidence.
Sustainability: Buybacks and programmed burns strengthen long-term value.
With this model, FOGOchain delivers a powerful value proposition for both professional traders and institutional players: speed, security, ultra-low fees, and a token with tangible utility, strong narrative, and deflationary sustainability.
🔥 Executive Summary:
Integrating a token burn mechanism as a core element of FOGOchain, since we believe the flame is the heart of the ecosystem. Every minting of fUSD and every trading fee contributes to $FOGO’s deflationary cycle, ensuring sustainability, strengthening value, and symbolizing the growing power of the flame.

a huge shoutout to @MeteoraAG team , @0xbaseddann , @sudoku_defi , @0xSoju and @0x_Malc
we were stuck debugging a localnet validator migration (damm v2 dynamic config issue) and they patiently walked us through it — even pushed an update to meteora invent so we could test properly 🙏
love seeing builders helping builders 🗑️❤️
Meteora DAMM v2 now works like a charm on gorbagannanananana testnet.
We will add more support from meteora program for dev to build more stuff, program like lb_clmm, cp_amm, alpha_vault, dynamic_vault etc..
Non-believers in @FogoChain will regret it
The rapid growth of the FogoChain ecosystem is the core 🔥
Right now, it’s the best young blockchain for developing new projects
Don’t miss the chance to explore Fogo at an early stage
By the way, we see the beginning of the NFT cycle on Fogo👀
So, who’s ready for the second part of the testnet mint?👇
