JTO serves 4 primary functions within the Jito ecosystem: Network Security, Staking Rewards, Standard 1:1, and Delegated. The protocol generates fees from user activity. Value flows back to token holders through Buyback & Hold and Buyback & Add LP. Jito's fee revenue currently exceeds its token emissions, indicating a self-sustaining economic model.

Token utilities:

• Network Security: JTO can be staked in Jito Restaking vaults to provide economic security for Node Consensus Networks (NCNs) like TipRouter, where staked assets are subject to slashing if operators act maliciously.
• Staking Rewards: Vault depositors who stake through the Jito Restaking program earn rewards from NCN consensus participation; TipRouter distributes 0.30% of fees to NCN network participants including restakers.
• Standard 1:1: JTO uses direct token-weighted governance on Realms where one token equals one vote with no lockup, minimum holding, or vote-escrow mechanism required.
• Delegated: Token holders may delegate voting authority to governance representatives without transferring tokens; the Jito Foundation delegated 12 million JTO to delegates who receive revocable voting power.
