SNT is the utility token that powers the application. SNT is used for many things on the platform, including governance, network incentivization, marketplace purchases, and domain name registration. Regarding Network incentivization, Status rewards users who set up and run nodes to create the framework necessary to run the network.
Being a platform centered around communication, Status offers its users a Sticker Market where users can purchase stickers for their chat and create and sell their designs using SNT. Another novel application within the platform is "Tribute to Talk," which makes an anti-spam filter for receiving cold contact requests. Tribute to Talk allows a user to set an amount of SNT to be contacted. Anybody wishing to contact said user must pay an SNT "Tribute" to send a message.
Status' suite covers messaging, social media, crypto wallets, and a dApp store for the Ethereum ecosystem - all in one mobile portal. Ethereum enables the platform to prioritize privacy, resist censorship, and have community-driven development. Status claims to offer a user-friendly alternative to current internet standards.
