Decentralized Network Tokens are digital assets that power and govern distributed ledger systems, operating without a central authority. These tokens often grant holders voting rights on protocol upgrades, access to network resources, or a share in transaction fees. They are fundamental to the incentive structures and operational mechanics of blockchain and decentralized finance platforms. Their value is typically tied to the utility and adoption of the underlying network.

Regulators evaluate whether these tokens represent securities, commodities, or a new asset class entirely. The ongoing challenge involves applying traditional regulatory frameworks to assets designed for permissionless and borderless operation, impacting how they are offered and traded.
