Governing the IQ ecosystem
A more intelligent future, powered by $IQ.
BrainDAO is the legal entity that launched $IQ. It governs the token, stewards its treasury, and operates HiIQ staking.
The IQ token
Governance, staking, and a shared treasury.
$IQ is the governance token launched by BrainDAO. Holders lock IQ through HiIQ to vote on proposals, earn staking rewards, and direct the DAO's treasury. Products built on IQ live on their own platforms; BrainDAO is the entity behind the token itself.

What $IQ does.
Governance
HiIQ balance determines voting power on IQ proposals. Lock longer, weigh heavier in every decision the DAO makes.
Staking rewards
Stakers earn additional IQ, distributed proportionally to their HiIQ balance for as long as their lock is active.
Fee burn & redistribution
A share of ecosystem platform fees paid in IQ is burned or redistributed to stakers, putting deflationary pressure on supply.
IQ Treasury
A treasury governed by IQ stakers.
BrainDAO stewards the IQ ecosystem's treasury (IQ, stablecoins, and strategic assets), deployed by governance vote to fund rewards, liquidity, and growth.
≈ 9% of circulating supply is locked in HiIQ and earning rewards.
