# System Overview

![holistic summary of the ecosystem](https://846396876-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F9oh7QxRL6s0iYws3LxPp%2Fuploads%2FvyxOkyPcJoqi9peP8xpQ%2FC8AD33FF-9594-4BF0-B9E2-2992A056D233.jpeg?alt=media\&token=4ae02f72-818b-4714-b38d-54bc22dacac7)

You can see that the **GOLD 1** token is the foundation for the entire ecosystem, specifically the 4% tax. 1% of the tax is converted directly into LP and then burned, thus ensuring the health of our foundational liquidity pool; however it is the 3% remaining that is interesting.

This 3% is sent directly to the Gold Mine and then subdivided equally:&#x20;

\- 0.73% allocation goes to our portfolio management fund: acquisitions and stablecoin administration;

\- 0.9% goes to the staking protocol;

\- 1.2% is reserved for future endeavours and ecosystem development;

\- 0.16% goes towards the Valar rewards.
