Question 1

What is FORT?

Accepted Answer

FORT is the utility ERC-20 token of the Forta network, used for the network's economic security, staking, fees, and governance-related purposes. Forta is a network for blockchain security monitoring; FORT's role is not to replace the native Gas token of monitored chains, but to connect participants' economic incentives with Forta network services. Token utility does not equal automatic returns or corporate ownership. Whether FORT holders can receive returns related to staking or network activity, and what risks they bear, depends on whether they participate in applicable mechanisms and on the protocol rules in force at the time.

Question 2

How does FORT staking support the Forta network?

Accepted Answer

FORT staking provides economic security for the Forta network. Participants lock tokens according to protocol rules and associate them with services or roles in the network; staked funds expose participants to potential economic consequences if they do not follow the rules, thereby connecting the incentive to provide reliable services with the token. Staking is not a fixed-interest deposit. Eligibility, reward sources, unlocking conditions, and possible penalty rules are determined by Forta's applicable mechanisms; yields vary with network activity and staking conditions.

Question 3

What does FORT's maximum supply mean?

Accepted Answer

FORT has a maximum supply of 1 billion tokens. This cap describes the highest quantity that can exist under the protocol design; it is not the quantity circulating, unlocked, or staked at a given time. The total supply cap is the maximum boundary; issuance and allocation determine which tokens are created or assigned to different uses; circulating supply depends on the portion that is unlocked, transferable, and has actually entered the market. Even if the cap is fixed, unlocks, allocations, staking, and holder trading can still change the quantity of FORT tradable in the market.

Question 4

Why does FORT staking involve a bridged token on Polygon?

Accepted Answer

FORT is an ERC-20 token on Ethereum; Forta's staking arrangement uses a bridged version of FORT on Polygon. The basic bridging process is that the source-chain asset is locked or otherwise processed according to the bridge's rules, and the target chain then mints or releases a corresponding representation asset, after which users interact with the staking contract on the target chain. The asset used for Polygon staking differs from native Ethereum FORT in its on-chain location and contract form, but is designed to represent the same economic asset under the bridging mechanism. Before acting, users need to verify the network, bridging route, and target staking contract.

Question 5

How is FORT related to network fees and governance?

Accepted Answer

FORT can be associated with fee and governance uses in the Forta network. On the fee side, the cost of using network services connects with the network's economic system; on the governance side, token holders participate in decisions on network-related matters according to applicable rules. Fees are used for the economic settlement of services and participation or as an incentive source, while governance is used to decide how network resources are adjusted or allocated. The existence of fees does not mean tokens are automatically burned, distributed to every holder, or guaranteed to rise in price.

Question 6

How can Forta network use connect with market demand for FORT?

Accepted Answer

FORT is used in the Forta network as a tool for staking, fees, and governance. When network participants need to stake according to the rules or settle related services, this may create usage demand; that demand must also pass through actual participation, holding, and market trading before it may affect the market price. This is not a price guarantee. Tradable supply, unlock and staking conditions, market liquidity, the degree of network use, and overall market expectations all affect FORT's price. Even where network functionality exists, it does not directly imply that the token will necessarily rise.
