# Tokenomics Overview

Jigsaw’s token ecosystem revolves around three key components: **$JIG**, **$sJIG**, and **jUSD**. These tokens are central to the platform’s governance, incentives, and liquidity mechanisms.

### **$JIG**

The liquid, tradable governance token that enables holders to participate in decision-making processes and influence the protocol’s incentive distribution.

### **$sJIG**:

The staked version of $JIG, which unlocks governance rights and rewards. By staking $JIG, users earn $sJIG and can vote on key protocol decisions while earning rewards based on their participation.

### **$jUSD**

Jigsaw’s native overcollateralized stablecoin, designed for liquidity and composability. jUSD can be minted by depositing collateral into the platform, offering fee-free borrowing while keeping collateral active across yield-generating strategies.

### Locked $JIG

As the platform matures, **Locked $JIG** will also be introduced. This feature will allow users to lock their $JIG tokens for a fixed period in exchange for boosted voting power, enhanced rewards, and access to real yield from platform fees. Locked $JIG is a key part of Jigsaw’s roadmap to incentivize long-term alignment and participation.

### **Collateral**

Jigsaw supports a diverse range of collateral types, each with unique Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratios based on their overall risk profiles. These include:

| Majors (80% LTV)       | Stablecoins (80-90% LTV)     | LST/LRT (70-75% LTV) |
| ---------------------- | ---------------------------- | -------------------- |
| BTC, ETH, wETH, wstETH | USDC, USDT, USDe, USDs, rUSD | rswETH, weETH, ezETH |

{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:blue;">**This collateral framework ensures flexibility and risk-adjusted borrowing limits, enabling users to maximize their capital efficiency while maintaining security across the platform.**</mark>

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://jigsaw.gitbook.io/jigsaw-protocol/tokenomics/tokenomics-overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
