# AQUA

AQUA is the native utility token that unlocks access to the entire ecosystem.

At its core, AQUA serves as the entry point to xAQUA, its escrowed counterpart. By converting AQUA into xAQUA, users gain access to the full Atlantis plugin suite:

* [**Treasures**](/atlantis-ecosystem/treasures.md), our real-yield rewards system, distributing 25% of protocol earnings.
* [**Trident Vaults**](/atlantis-ecosystem/trident-vaults.md), where stakers earn partner tokens through single-sided staking.
* [**Launchpad Ranks**](/atlantis-launchpad/launchpad-ranks.md), offering early access, revenue share, and exclusive sale allocations.
* **Governance**, where AQUA and xAQUA holders help decide project approvals and sale models.

AQUA also plays a central role in our tokenomics: farming emissions are distributed 80% in xAQUA and 20% in liquid AQUA, designed to reward long-term participants while limiting sell pressure.
