ALGO serves 4 primary functions within the Algorand ecosystem: Network Security, Staking Rewards, Gas Token, and Other. The protocol generates fees from user activity, with a portion distributed back to ALGO holders. Value flows back to token holders through Direct Revenue Share.

Token utilities:

• Network Security: ALGO tokens are staked through Algorand's Pure Proof-of-Stake (PPoS) consensus mechanism to validate transactions and secure the network. Participation accounts must maintain a minimum of 30,000 ALGO for solo staking, and tokens remain in users' wallets without lockup while securing consensus.
• Staking Rewards: Block proposers earn staking rewards consisting of 50% of transaction fees from proposed blocks plus Foundation-supplemented bonus rewards starting at 10 ALGO per block that decay over ~24 months. During Q1 2025, 10.5 million ALGO was distributed in staking rewards.
• Gas Token: ALGO is the native L1 gas token for all transactions on the Algorand blockchain, with a minimum fee of 0.001 ALGO per transaction. All transaction types including payments, asset transfers, and application calls require ALGO for fees.
• Other: Algorand transitioned from a traditional governance rewards model to an xGov expert council model where elected council members (max 13+2) evaluate ecosystem funding proposals. Community voting referendums on major protocol decisions continue, but this is neither standard 1:1, vote escrow, nor delegated governance.

Value accrual mechanisms:

• Direct Revenue Share: 50% of transaction fees from each block are distributed directly to the block proposer who staked ALGO and participated in consensus. This is a direct revenue share from protocol fees to stakers.
