WAIFUS (BRC20)
Governance token of the Yu DAO
What is WAIFUS?
WAIFUS is the governance token of the Yu DAO, responsible for coordinating protocol-level decisions across Yuzo.
The token is deployed as a BRC-20 asset and is recorded directly on Bitcoin.
WAIFUS distribution was initially made accessible through participation in Yuna Genesis and Yuna Revelation. Allocation pathways included holder airdrops, staking participation, and structured lock commitments, ensuring that governance ownership was obtained through onchain participation rather than centralized issuance.
