The rail, the token, and how it all settles. Still stuck? Talk to the team.
Basics
FTR is the utility token at the heart of the Faktorist B2B trade marketplace. It settles invoices, collateralizes trade credit, and rewards the buyers, suppliers and carriers who keep the network honest — on Whitechain.
No. FTR is a utility token used to operate the settlement rail. It is not an investment, yield, or promise of return. The $0.020 figure is a utility reference for denominating fees, not a price forecast.
The chain FTR settles on — a distributed validator set that clears trade in real time with a public, verifiable audit trail on every settlement.
Using the rail
Settlement is final on confirmation, typically in about 1.8 seconds. A priority lane clears in under a second.
A flat fee on settled volume — 0.10% on Node, 0.06% on Rail, custom on Network. No seats, no subscriptions. Fees are charged in FTR at the utility reference.
Lock FTR or supported assets to open a trade-credit line. Your health ratio must stay above the threshold; positions below it can be liquidated.
Security & custody
You do. FTR is self-custody — buyers, suppliers and carriers hold their own keys. FTR never takes custody of funds.
Yes. Settlement and collateral contracts are independently audited before every mainnet release, and we run an ongoing bug bounty.
Tokenomics
1,000,000,000 FTR. Minted once at TGE and never expanded. The fixed cap is hard-coded and not upgradeable.
Rewards accrue through the epoch engine for on-time, dispute-free settlement, staking cashback, and ambassador commissions. Rewards must be actively claimed — nothing auto-distributes.
A share of commission revenue buys FTR from the market; 70% is burned permanently and 30% is recycled into rewards — a fixed, hard-coded split.
Wallet
No. FTR works with any EVM-compatible browser wallet, hardware device, or passkey. Self-custody means you control your keys at all times.
Bronze (10,000 FTR), Silver (50,000) and Gold (250,000). Higher tiers earn higher cashback on platform fees (3–10%) and additional perks.
