LUMIA

Who this is for: anyone holding, staking, or paying gas with LUMIA who wants to understand what the token does before acting on it. This is a concept page: for the step-by-step swap, migration, and rewards guides, see Use Lumia (linked at each section below).

LUMIA is the native token of the Lumia chain (see /reference/networks for the confirmed chain ID): the asset the network runs on day to day, in the same role ETH plays on Ethereum.

What LUMIA is used for

• Gas. Every transaction on Lumia (a transfer, a contract deployment, a contract call) is paid for in LUMIA, the same as ETH is the gas token on Ethereum mainnet.

• Staking. LUMIA is Lumia's staking asset. Specific mechanics (validator staking, delegation, lock-up periods, reward rates) are published where they are kept current, because a docs page is a poor place to keep a rate current.

• Governance. LUMIA is positioned as the network's governance token. Whether an on-chain governance process is live today, and what it covers, is not yet confirmed. See Staking and governance.
