​
Mainnet token policy

PressChain has an explicit mainnet asset boundary. The mainnet PRESS token is not a promotion of the current testnet token and testnet balances do not automatically migrate.

​
Approved planning facts

Current authority establishes:
  • symbol: PRESS
  • decimals: 18
  • planned mainnet supply: 10,000,000,000 PRESS
  • mainnet will use a new PRESS asset
  • testnet genesis will not be reused
  • testnet balances do not automatically migrate
These statements are safe for product and developer planning.

​
Policies that still need formal approval

Before mainnet, the project requires:
  • final tokenomics approval
  • allocation and vesting manifest
  • treasury and bounty policy
  • validator reward policy
  • burn and fee routing policy
  • independent supply verification
A developer should not infer any of these from old decks, test allocations or historical source constants.

​
Application implications

Keep token configuration environment-scoped:
Do not show a mainnet contract address until the approved deployment manifest exists.

​
Wallet migration messaging

When mainnet launches, wallet UX should make it explicit that the user is switching networks and viewing a separate asset. Avoid UI that copies the old displayed balance and changes the word TESTNET to MAINNET.

​
Supply verification

Independent supply verification should compare the approved manifest, deployed token configuration and observable chain state. It should be possible for an external reviewer to reproduce the calculation. This is stronger than trusting a dashboard number.
