FOGnet

The FOG token is the utility and settlement token for the FOGnet ecosystem. It is used to support financial, governance and operational layers across the platform. Use cases include:

• Marketplace transactions: FOG is required for the minting, trading and management of NFTs representing fractional rights in real estate development projects.
• Staking and incentives: Token holders can participate in staking programmes that yield rewards and contribute to liquidity or platform services.
• Governance: FOG tokens provide governance rights, allowing holders to vote on platform upgrades, economic parameters and key decisions.
• DeFi functionality: Users can access swaps, liquidity pools and yield-generating strategies using FOG in combination with other supported assets.
• Payment and service access: FOG is used as a payment medium within the ecosystem’s internal tools, communication layers and application access points.

The token is central to sustaining platform economics and ensuring alignment between user participation and infrastructure development.

In early 2024, FOGnet experienced a significant security breach involving unauthorised access to critical wallet infrastructure. This event resulted in the compromise of the original token contract and necessitated a migration to a new smart contract to maintain security and operational integrity.

Following the incident, the FOGnet team issued a new token contract and deployed migration tools to protect users and ensure the continuity of ecosystem functions. Updated platform integrations were rolled out across all dApps, marketplaces and communication layers, reflecting the revised contract parameters and updated wallet frameworks. The response included increased wallet security procedures and improved internal controls to reduce the risk of similar incidents in future platform versions.
