## Supply at deployment <a href="#the-fair-launch-story" id="the-fair-launch-story"></a>

SEED’s contract was deployed on **1 February 2024** and minted 20 million tokens to its deployer in the constructor. It has no external mint function. Review the [deployment transaction](https://basescan.org/tx/0x41d3ef5e78563acdc2e6d43d248f71244fdf1f40675e4f3d4e488057e9a85f40) and subsequent transfers for the launch distribution.

## What the 5% tax does

| 2% | **Player rewards**: funds the [ETH pool](/game-mechanics/rewards-p2e-model.md) paid to plants by PTS |
| 2% | Development and operations                                                                           |
| 1% | Automated liquidity                                                                                  |

Fees apply to non-exempt buys and sells involving recognized market-maker pairs. Ordinary wallet transfers are untaxed. The owner can adjust the fee components up to 5% per side and change exemptions and recognized pairs.

## What SEED is for

* [Minting plants](/game-mechanics/minting-plants.md) (10 to 40 SEED) and [lands](/game-mechanics/lands.md) (500 SEED)
* [Care items](/game-mechanics/elements.md), [fences](/game-mechanics/attacks-and-defense.md), revives, and plant names
* [Staking](/tokens/staking.md) to earn LEAF (\~3.33 per SEED per day)
* [Casino](/game-mechanics/lands/casino.md) chips and [Marketplace](/game-mechanics/lands/marketplace.md) trading
* Quest loot: quests pay SEED back out to players

Eligible plant purchases burn a configured share of their SEED payment. Land mints, staking, casino bets, and marketplace trades follow different payment rules. See [Economy Overview](/tokens/economy-overview.md) for the dated supply snapshot.
