Tangent is an independent platform owned and led by the community. TANG token is created as a governance token to actively guide Tangent towards self-sustainability and shared community ownership. The token has been minted on the Cardano blockchain and is a tradable asset that functions like most other native Cardano tokens, except that it has additional utility as a voting mechanism.
TANG is the governance token of Tangent and it is native to the Cardano blockchain which means it inherits all the security guarantees and operationalprotocols from its layer-1 blockchain, just like ADA. For example, the responsibility of validating blocks and TANG transactions is outsourced to the Cardano Network of decentralized node operators. Node operators and delegators are incentivized via the chain’s unique rewarding mechanism, which rewards participants.
