Eclipse

The Eclipse (ES) token is the native utility and governance asset for the Eclipse protocol. It has been deployed across multiple chains and serves the following primary functions:

• Gas Token: ES can be used to pay for transaction fees on the Eclipse chain via a native paymaster system.

• Governance: Token holders can participate in governance to influence protocol parameters such as fee structures, upgrade paths, and application-specific rules (e.g., custom sequencing logic).

• Staking and MEV Participation: ES holders may stake to specific applications to receive a portion of native emissions and MEV redistribution, subject to governance decisions.

• Fraud Proof Incentives: ES may be used as a bond in fraud proof challenge systems. Participants who successfully dispute invalid transactions may be rewarded in ES.

• Economic Alignment: Future mechanisms governed by token holders may introduce forms of native yield or bonding, aligning incentives across users, applications, and infrastructure operators.
