BOT pays transaction fees and is bonded in the proof-of-staked-authority validator system. Candidates are ranked by bonded stake, active validators produce blocks, and each validator chooses how much fee income to share with delegators. Bonded and withdrawing stake may be cut for rule violations. Creating a validator requires more than 2,001 BOT in the account and at least 2,000 BOT self-delegated.
The white paper divides a 150 million supply among proof-of-stake output (42%), distributed-computing output (28%), ecosystem (13%), foundation and team (7%), strategic investors (5%), and exchange and community distribution (5%). It says team and investor allocations unlock linearly over ten years. No public wallet-level vesting register or genesis ledger was found, so the allocation and circulating amount cannot be reconciled independently from those materials alone.
CertiK describes important chain contracts as derived from BSC’s genesis suite and says that part of the review covered BOT-specific differences. Administrative addresses can change implementations, voting rules, reward and burn ratios, and fee routing. BDEX and the bridge add separate ownership, validator and pause powers, making their operation dependent on more than token-holder votes.
Public pages also use three operator names: Bohr Life Inc., BOHR Foundation and BOT Chain. The reviewed public pages did not provide a single registration record and address tying those names together. BOT provides a native balance for transfer, fees and configured participation; the reviewed terms do not promise computing capacity, company ownership, repayment or a fixed return.
