How it works
From the 0.3% token tax to Treasury contributions. A trade is not a completed debt payment.
Token tax
A 0.3% private tax on token trades. 80% of it goes toward the national debt. 20% goes to marketing and project growth.
Federal taxes
Government collects federal taxes. This project cannot redirect them. Treasury's revenue guide ↗
Transaction
A trader pays a 0.3% tax on a covered trade.
Collection
The launch venue or token contract collects the tax.
Allocation
80% of the tax goes toward the national debt. 20% goes to marketing and project growth.
Treasury gift
The fund makes an official gift through Treasury's published route and posts the receipt. Buying the token is not itself a Treasury payment.
Treasury's gift program
Treasury accepts gifts to reduce debt held by the public. Pay.gov lists bank account, PayPal, Venmo, and debit or credit card payments. There is no direct crypto option. Check-payment instructions are also available.
That government service is separate from Open Treasury. Using it does not require buying the token, and it is not a tax benefit from this project.
The token
Open Treasury's $DEBT is a Robinhood Ethereum token launched on Pons.
The debt clock estimates from Treasury's daily total. You do not need a token or a wallet to read it.
